Good price for calipers

I called up nissan and they told me front calipers go for $215 each and rear calipers go for 335$ each. Thats unreal. But anyway I have a connection for some wholesale stuff. I got a quote of $40 each for the front calipers and $100 each for the rear calipers. Does this sound liek a good price? Would it be a bad idea to replace just one caliper, (I have a locked caliper rear drivers side and warped rotors that I am replacing)?

I would just replace the bad caliper and then keep an eye on brake fluid to see if any leaks develop. Those prices seem about right.

Only for parts or to rebuild it yourself! They are called junk yards for a reason!
