True current procedure and cost of extending Cambodia tourist visa in person? - Crowd of people strolling along paved walkway of ancient Angkor Wat in Cambodia

I can find lots of pages recommending extending your Cambodian visa through a travel agent, hostel, guesthouse, hotel, or even supermarket or bike shop.

But all seem to merely repeat hearsay about it being too hard or too much hassle to do it directly and say the fee the agents etc charge is "small". Also they give a wide range of different prices from $15 up to I believe at least $45. My guesthouse quoted me something above $50 from memory.

I'm seeking the true actual current details of doing a visa extension in Phnom Penh on one's own, just to have the facts available for any reasons travellers might want.

I personally don't mind getting to the airport and back a couple of times and will do it and report back here. But I would appreciate any link or reference that's either official or a recent story of traveller who did it.

10 April 2015.
The Immigration / Visa office quoted me the following extension rates:

1 month - $30
3 months - $60
6 months - $100

They were very particular in wanting to see my rental contract and would not give me a visa that extended past it.

Also my wait time is 3 weeks due to Khmer New Year
