depends on markup

Maybe not the cheapest, unless he doubled his parts prices. Looking back at some posts from 2005, there was this exchange:

Motor Mounts...How Much To Install? I recently had this done on my wife's 300se. Total parts and labor came to $215.00, from an independent MB mechanic

motor mounts are less than $30 each new- so the mechanic either charged you $140+ per hour at one hour, or $70 and two hours... I've changed motor mounts in my driveway in less than 40 minutes.
I see someone on ebay currently selling OE mounts for $65 per, better than the $90 I saw someone else quoting as dealer price back in 2009! Perhaps yours were Corteco brand (back when they were better), but if indeed aftermarket, I'd prolly be happy with a 5-year run
