Drivers side Mirror $800 CA - Fair? Foul?

My mirror was busted on the driver's side. Cover was cracked, but internals looked semi-ok. Dealer shifted in that they initially said I probably needed a cover, but when it came down to it they said I needed a new mirror. I was expecting $250.
It turns out (Canadaian prices- US translated prices about 15% cheaper:
Cover 30.25
Mirror 353.25
Mirror Kit 441.00
----
$798.27
without installation and painting.
When I asked why we needed a new mirror, the service person said the tech tried to replace just the cover on the old one, but couldn't. "The tabs must have been busted all the way through." I wish I knew, I'm sure I could have got a new mirror cheaper elsewhere. There didn't seem room for discussion at that point, it's the way things played out...and I was in shock!
Suggestions? Are these parts way over quoted for original OEM
