Come and live where I do( the Middle East) and see what the British Embassy charge for an officer spending three seconds putting his signature and the embassy seal to a document!
Here the Asian embassies are very cheap.

Your statement is too general to be useful.
I have always found countries like Japan and Thailand to be both courteous and efficient. As Christine H says try the prices at British Embassies abroad for daylight robbery!
