my former band Lunatic Fringe got a 12-song album mastered locally for $500. i was able to sit in on the mastering session and the engineer would bounce different approaches off of me, which i see as a huge advantage to going local. there are a huge number of variable parameters, and since it's your record, you need to be part of the process. it was like going to the eye doctor for glasses — "which is better, this or that?" ... as a result, we were 100% pleased with the outcome.
