CV Axles needing special tools??

Took X in for brakes last Friday to my independent shop and they called me and said my CV boot was torn and the axle needed replacing - quoted around $600. They called back a few minutes later and said they could not do it because it required special tools that they did not have. Called a second shop and they told me the same thing.

Is this true?? Am I going to have to find a BMW repair shop or heaven forbid the dealer to do this repair??
