Default Wheel bearing rip-off

well i bought new wheel bearings for my 91 crx, got them from honda that not my problem though, i took them to a local shop just the wheel bearings and the steering knuckels so they could press out the old ones and press in the new ones, well i went back a few days later to pick them up and it cost me $98 did i get riped off? i was just wondering what some of you had payed for the same service.

wheel bearings are a PITA, and for both of them, it's 1.5-2 hrs to do. (depending on experience, you can get it done quicker if you're good)

So depending on what they change per hour... that's about right.
