FWIW - your LBS is overcharging.
Would I be better off just getting a prebuilt wheelset? Something like http://www.velomine.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=858 or the one I mentioned before?

I don't mind paying for better quality, but if the difference isn't much between the sets I would rather spend that money on other bike parts
