I repaired similar damage as that on the corner and it aint that bad..just take it one step at a time and take a lot of pic.
I did take the pics to a local reputable RV repair place. He told me $300 to $600 for repairs...rebuilding the wood, etc, but of course with the proviso that no one will REALLY know til it's torn open.
I asked...what's the worst case scenario...he said $1000.
But...I chose to be more conservative and follow the advice given here...but I hear you, it MIGHT not have been too bad.
For that price the dealer must only be putting on some large L brackets on the outside to hold the corner together. I would make sure I fully understood what the repair was going to be and the look of it.
I have a hard time believing that they are tearing off the sheathing both inside and outside, fixing any structural damage then replacing the sheathing for a nice fit and finish. A repair shop will charge $65-120 hr You really don't get much done for $300.
