I called the local tire shop, and they said they could patch it for $20, and do a free front-back rotation (since I bought the tires there). They called a few hours after I dropped it off and said they could not patch it and said all my were tires worn (which I knew), intimating that they should all be replaced. When I picked up the car, it was in the same spot as drop-off and there were no fingerprints on the wheels, so it's unclear if they even looked at the tires. You could almost see the dollar signs in their eyes.
I took it to a used tire dealer and I had the tire expertly patched, the rear tires flipped on the rims, and switched l-to-r to put the worn edges on the outside... all for $20 cash.
