Default Need to know if I am getting ripped off

I am having my old shocks taken out, old coilovers, and an alignment being done. This guy wants to charge me $240 for everything? Does this sound right? This is what I am having him put in:

1)Eibach Pro-Kit
2)KYB Gas Shocks
3)AWD alignment

my eibach pro-kit cost me $220 (on the net, it's $200)
my KYB non-adjustable shocks cost me around $250
alignment costs $50 here
and when i had the guy put my springs/shocks in, he charged me $90

btw, i bought the springs and shocks at a local (and somewhat expensive) shop...and then they referred me to that guy...so i just paid for the labor...springs/shocks installation is easy, do it yourself if you can (i don't have tools or anyone who can help me)...but if you have a shop do it, they shouldn't cost too much since they have lifts, impact tools, and what-not
