IME, those $75-$100 are the fees many SSs offer for seller's package. TCs will typically set aside a minimum of $200 for the notary, regardless of the type of transaction (purchase, refi, seller).
Also IMO, there's no such thing as "standard," "average" or "typical" signing fee. That's terminology a SS uses to try to justify a low fee -- "the standard signing fee in your area is $XX." I believe in quoting on a case-by-case basis. Too many variables and I cover a large territory.
