Price Check On Isle #1 !!!

Here's my problem..... My '90 SPG overheated yesterday. I happened to be only blocks from the Saab dealership who's service dept I've used for years. I've had a lot of work done there on all 3 of my vehicles and never had a bad experience.......but based on the follow account I feel like they're seeing me as a "cash cow".
I was told that the cause of the overheating was that the thermostat stuck and both cooling fans were shot. they quoted me $1800 to make the repairs. When I questioned the price I was told that the fans alone were $500 each. I know for a fact that at least 1 of the fans was working when I dropped off the car. I don't have that kind of money to put into the car now so I asked them to just replace the thermostat so that I could drive the car home. They did that, flushed the cooling system and replaced the coolant....and charged me $377! That included $95 to "diagnose the problem". Are those charges anywhere near reasonable or am I right to feel that I'm being "had"?????
