John, from what I can see, Pads run $45-100 and a decent set of rotors can be purchased for less than $100. I just disassembled my front brakes -it took about 45 minutes -which includes jacking the car up finding tools, etc...
Once I get new rotors and pads, I'll finish the job in about the same amount of time. The mechanics quoting your job can do it a lot faster. For me, it means I'll save at least $300 for about 1 1/2 hours work. That's like getting paid $200/hour. Plus, I don't have to spend several hours taking my car somewhere else and waiting for the work to be done.
It's pretty simple.
