A very specific two part question. Has anyone had a gas stove replaced with one from appliances online, and if so, how much did they charge for installation (which would likely include new or upgraded circuit, and obviously tapping the gas)?

Edit - induction stove, I meant replaced with an induction stove. Gas replaced with induction.

They're cheap for the product and expensive for their tradies. I'd buy from them and get someone from hipages to install it. If you're replacing gas to gas it should all be pretty simple. Replacing gas w/electric you'll likely need to run a high load line from the fuse box to the stove. I'd replace with an electric induction rather than another gas given gas is getting phased out (more expensive).

Thanks. Comment edited to reflect what I was actually talking about.
