Need advice/options for pads & rotors replacement

Took my ‘12 CLS63 in the shop for a Schedule A service. Was told I need rotors front/back and pads. I was surprised as the car only has 25k miles.

Here’s the quote I received:
OEM Front Rotors. 2 @ $1020 each =$2040
OEM Rear Rotors. 2 @ $304 each = $608
OEM Front Pad Set $394 set
OEM Rear Pad Set. $218 set
OEM Pad Sensors $35
Remove worn Brakes and install new OEM Rotors, Pads and Sensors $220 labor

Seems way high to me? Any guidance on where to get a set of rotors, pads & sensors. May get another opinion too.

The best or nothing
Standard OEM prices. There is a room for discount around 30% if you have friends. By the way, it seems unlikely you would need front and back rotors if the car hasn't been tracked heavily. Mine was and lasted till about 35k miles.

You're way better off doing this by yourself.. It's really a piece of cake for the average DIY'er.
