How much to replace ball joints on both sides of a 2003 e200?

Title says it all really. Parents have one and have been quoted 450 for this which seems like a mad price to me. Am I right?

there are 2 types of wishbone for these cars...some you could replace just the ball joint some you had to replace the whole wishbone...first you are going to have to find out which you have.
