You can purchase the replacement screen and tools off of amazon for less than $14.00 and if you have prime it's of course free shipping.
It's interesting to read about the quality of glass you are getting from online vendors vs the ones they actually use through the manufactorers. Never thought of that.
Yes, removing the glue part is tedious. Microfiber cloth and patience help with this a lot.
And you can purchase the adhesive strips for $1.50 plus $2.00 in shipping from Amazon as well.
So you are looking at a little under $20.00 and an hour and change of your time and patience to complete the task yourself.
However, I agree with malthuss if you can do it for $80.00 through Samsung which to my understanding you can then go that route. BUT if they are for sure going to charge you the $178.61 then it might be worth trying the youtube route?
Still I would give Samsung a call again first. It's a standard repair fee of $80.00 I think it's odd that they would charge you the same as they charged me when all they have to do for yours is fix the screen not the screen AND the digitizer (which is the most expensive part of that repair).
Good luck!

I'll be the middle aged dude with a beer gut wearing a Hawaiian shirt, shorts, sandals, and just to make it uber easy and super dorky, I'll bring my sun safari pith helmet which will either be on my head or on the table in front of me. Oh, and if at all possible, we'll be in shade or under canopy. Shouldn't be terribly hard to find.
