Does the price for this job on my 2003 BMW X5 3.0i seem reasonable?

RF caliper for $200

brake hose kit with fluid for $45

total thats around $670 for all the parts listed and every single thing has a lifetime warranty (when it wears out if you ship it back at your costs they will replace with new part for free)
Personally I wouldn't spend $100 for a used set of ebay calipers when rockauto exists.
I have used calipers from the pic n pull yard but at least I get to visually check them out first.
