Brake repair costs

Dodge Stratus 1998 93,000. I was told during some repair work that I would need some brake work. I need front pads, and the back break drums to be replaced, along with the brake fluid flush. The cost came to $681.00 labor and parts. Is this a reasonable cost estimate? It seems a bit high, especially given that just the pads need to be replaced.

Cheers,
Peter

well i do all my own brake jobs so i dont really know what someone would charge you. but i would assume that cost includes front pads, turning the rotors(shaving them), rear brake shoes, turning the drums, new spring kit, and if your flushing the brakes its just bleeding them. it might be reasonable, still seems a little high for me though
