Is this a good price?

I go to the dealer to get my free oil change and I knew my brakes needed to be changed. They tell me they dont have it in stock but they can order it but I need new rotors and pads. Pads will cost 240 bucks and rotors will be 220 dollars plus some labor after discounts it will be 687 bucks... I said I would think about it. I decided to look at after market products and after reading about them here it seemed the stock pads are some of the best and made by ATE. I loved the stock pads so I decided to look up the SKU in google. I ended up at my dealers Parts Store... How ironic... They have the pads listed for 170 and a single rotor for 72 bucks... Now only the fronts need replacing.
Do you guys think these are good prices? I'm positive the pads are the ATE factory replacement ones for MS3, I even zoomed into the picture to confirm.

Dealer prices.

I was told in another thread the pads are ATE backer with a Ferrodo compound. If you don't mind the dust, just get the stockers from somewhere, but they will cost you. I went ceramic and got my hawk fronts for way less than $100 shipped. if you can change a tire, you can change the pads. If you can't find one, I can write a quick how-to on changing front pads.
 
That place is awesome. Yes, it's dealer prices, but I work for an automotive group and I'm on a commercial account. Those prices aren't that bad.
