The glass is cheap. You have to remove all the putty and then cut your glass about 1/16th short of 10 and 12 so that it will fit into the window. Get some glazing points - they make them that can be pushed in with a screw driver - and insert two each on all four sides. Get some glazing putty, pull a blob out and knead it in your hands, like making bread - until it is warm, soft and pliable. Push that into the frame, one side at a time, and take a flexible putty knife - that is why they call them putty knives - and make a quick stroke from top to bottom with the edge of the putty knife being at the place where the glass meets the frame - an angle. Do the other sides, one a time, peel off excess putty that the knife squeezes out and don't wash the window until the putty is really firm

that job should be done for less than $4.oo . you will need to have the very exact measurements for the hardware store to cut the glass. Youwill also need the glaising compound, a type of putty to hold the glass in and a few glaiser points, the little diamond shaped brads to stick in the frame to hold the pane of glass in place. The glass should be cut to where there is only 1/16 inch of movement on the sides and up and down , or you might have a hard time getting it to stay in place.

I would guess $10 for a single pane piece of glass and the glasing compound and about 8 glasing points.

If it is a sealed twin or triple pane iece of glass, then it will have to be ordered from a window company and I have no idea of the cost, but 100-200 sounds reasonable to me.
