Short version: Do you allow PCs to purchase gear that has already been customized with attachments and modifications? If so, how do you price it? Also, are there rules anywhere for hiring skilled labor to perform customization?

Thanks for your time.

Special Modifications page 91 has some suggestions for hiring a Mechanic for such things. It is pricy, but means it always succeeds (I guess the cost partially accounts for price of remediation of failures).

Thank you, Darzil! Row nine on that table (3-20: Crafting Sell Prices) is exactly what I need.

Short answer: No. I consider that stuff the "treasure" of this game so I don't let them start with it or just buy it under normal circumstances. Very occasionally they might find something for sale but the price will always be crazy, and it's purpose will be part of what is going on, not just random cool loot for the buying.
