Oxygen Sensor Question

Oxygen Sensor Question
Hello, My service engine soon light popped on the other day and I had a mechanic analyse the problem. Error code stated a bad O2 sensor. I was told that the approximate cost for the part was somewhere around 190$. I was quoted a total cost L&M for the job of 300$. I guess I'm looking for a sanity check here. Does this cost seem reasonable? It sounded high to me but I thought I would check with you guys to see if I'm getting raked on labor and/or material.
I've also learned that there is more than 1 O2 sensor, there are 4 of them. I'm taking the car to the dealer to see if he can pinpoint which of the 4 sensors it is. My regular mechanic did not specify which one. So, is that cost from my regular mechanic (300$) seem reasonable?
Thanks!
