While you do not need one of those big fancy machines, you need a shop that knows what they are doing. I have done more than a few alignments with a tape measure that would keep tires alive with no uneven wear for 40-50k. It all depends on if you set it up correctly.
The only reason I say one of those newer machines is that is make it a lot easier for your average tech to do things correctly as they make them stupid easy, Plus you can see the numbers and get a proper print out.
If anything make them center the wheel (if you do not follow Johns simple steps for fixing) and have them set some Toe in, if they will not then for sure go else where.
