Default was this a good deal on mirrors?

Hi, last week some ******** vandalized my car while it was parked in front of my house. They broke both of my side view mirrors. Anyway, I found some 94 Civic mirrors on EBay, and they were exactly what I needed. So I bid at the last 2 minutes hoping to get them as cheap as possible, but the other guy kept matching me, and soon what I hoped would would be around $60 bucks turned out to be $94.
Plus the guy wants $20 for shipping and plus insurance the total would be $116.50. Is this still a good deal? Or could I have gotten them cheaper? This was the first time I found OEM Manual mirrors on EBay. It's usually those M3 knockoffs. Don't these mirrors go for this much each usually?

mine weren't painted, so I'm not going to. When the other guy started matching me, I lost control and had to win. lol. I hate having to pay too much. I also didn't have a chance to check out a junk yard.

I should have, but since I'm going to sell it soon, I wanted to have oem mirrors. I thought that the buyers may not like modified stuff.
