Default Auto Repair Pricing

A friend took her car to the Goodyear near Sam's because the "check engine" light was on. They said it needed a mass air flow sensor. The quoted price was $385, and I got other quotes of $360 from Wildwood Tire and $410 from Sumter Tire. The part is available from Amazon for $35 and the Youtube video shows a guy replacing one in less than a minute by removing 2 screws. I don't work on cars, but even if I did, I think the check engine light would still need to be reset. Do these prices seem reasonable?
