Local bike shops will usually put an 'out of the box' one together for a few pounds. I say usually.... If it's frame and 'parts' then you will get charged quite a bit, as I now know, having sorted out another member last weekend. 
Out of the box - possibly £25. Frame and components - £100 easy !

Its a major job I think and I cannot afford that sort of money to be honest I shall just have to persevere!!
What are you trying to do?
The park tool repair help site is pretty good: http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&so...7JSbDw&usg=AFQjCNH5DnzgUUarte7uNn3u2DSoZfteLQ

Basically Iam trying to put the parts from one frame into another but for starters the rear gears are not transferable so now I have two different gear sets? I have had two swop my pedals around which I am sure is not a problem its more the gears etc that are a concern!!
They should just transfer directly from one frame to another, what frames (road/Mountain) are they and what components are you trying to transfer. The rear mech should just bolt on to the mech hanger & same for the front unless it's a band on where it just clamps to the frame. It really should be a very simple job.
