You don't say whether that price included labor to install it.
By the way, you need to do your comparison shopping before you buy the part not after.

The conditions are not the same.
The parts stores do NOT have to install and warrant the installation of the part(s) whereas the shop does.
Usually parts markups are high at most shops so the labor charge can be relatively lower.
If you want to make a VALID comparison of prices, check with other repair servicers for their price.
Of course you'll find some differences, but the playing field will be level.
No, I DON'T work for ANY repair or parts company.
