validity although it puts your situation in the "ballpark" range.

Hi,
I had to tow my car to the nearest Tires Plus due to starter problems.
The repair person says the starter is locked and needs a replacement.
He quoted the price for re-manufactured starter as $285 + 1 hr labor
$90 and he says it comes with 5 year warranty. I cannot tow it to
another place in this situation, so I have OKed it after attempting to
bargain on the price and alternatives. Is this a reasonable price or
another rip off?
Thanks in advance.
