Default Whirlpool A&E FACTORY SERVICE Outrageous pricing

I scheduled a service call through whirlpool web site (A&E FACTORY
SERVICE) for my 5 year old side by side fridge. They wanted to charge
$236 for replacing a compressor start relay: $50+ for part and $173
for labor. Needless to say I declined the estimate. I called around
and found the relay for $36 and replaced myself - 5 minute job. I'm
NEVER calling these guys again. I know they don't work for free but
$170 for a few minutes job - seems over the line.
