Question Replacing rear lower ball joint?

Is $350 a fair price for replacing rear lower ball joint (both side) + alignment?

Thanks for help in advance

Sounds expensive, did the same repair on my old ml430 and the parts were only about $100 for both ball joint iirc...labor was free as i did it myself, I'd call around

Most shops are charging around this price and others charge around $600. I really need how much it really cost. Did anybody did it in a shop? because most threads are about how to change it.
