Proof again that the dealer is aptly called the stealer

I went to the Volvo dealer today to see what it would cost to get my left front tie rod replaced along with an alignment. I was told $325.00! Does this sound excessive to anyone? I went to the parts department and the part is $74.00. I think I'll give Belle Tire a call see what they want to replace it and do the alignment. If they are unreasonable as well then I'll just do it myself.
