Deb,
As someone who sells images, that's a fairly reasonable price (maybe a touch
high for use, but it is Bill Gates...).
They own it, you need it - supply and demand...
that said, I'll take any opportunity to screw Corbis, as they are quite
happy to screw photographers... :-)
So, does it have to be a gas station? email me off list if you can do with
an old corner store with a gas pump or just a roadside store.
