I have a 30-inch slide in range and the glass on the oven door just shattered all over the floor. (My fault - a heavy pitcher I was taking out of dish washer slipped and hit the oven door) Just a freak accident. The range is 11 years old. Approximate cost of a new glass? I'd have a serviceman install it. They charge $65 just to come out. Should I replace or buy a new range?

Sorry. Go buy a new range. I wouldn't trust a new oven door - especially when it comes time to clean it. (self-cleaning, I'm assuming)
As soon as you put big bucks in this one, something else will go wrong....they don't last as long as they used to.
Good luck to you.

Find the brand name and model number of the oven you currently have and go to the company's web site and look up the part number to see if you can still order the part.
Then compare that price (+$65 for installation if you can't do it yourself) to that of a new oven and you will see that the price of a new oven is at least twice the cost probably 3-4 times the cost of the new oven door.
Most oven doors can be removed by the owner for cleaning. See if yours can and if you can find someone who can do it for you cheaper than for $65. You can order the part off of the company site on the Internet and have it delivered to your home.
If you pay a technician to replace the door then they will have to order the part and charge you the price that they want to for it. They could get it wholesale or charge you more. You can't get the oven door wholesale, but you should still be able to get one, provided it was a major model.

Oh dear. So sorry for your loss - not pretty, I'm sure.
You may discover you need to get a completely new door. At the age of your range, it's worth pricing a new one unless you absolutely love it. You might be able to get pricing over the phone for a new window or door (no charge for quotes).

Go to http://appliancequickfix.com/ and check the price of the glass and then they will also tell you something about replacing it if you know somebody friendly and handy that will help you out. Its not that difficult.

if you love the range replace the glass, do it yourself - check ebay, or maybe you can get it off of ebay and have the service tech install your own parts - they usually do
