Farmall H Front Wheel Bearings from Case IH

For a narrow front end, I ordered 2 inner and 2 outer wheel bearings plus 2 felt washers. The total is $137. Does this sound excessive to anyone else?

Last week I bought 4 bearing cups (for the above bearings), 4 retainer parts and they totaled close to $160. I forgot to order the bearings.

I didn't want to put made in China parts on my H so I went to Case IH. The quality of the parts is good and they should last my lifetime, but still this seems like a lot for what the parts are.

Last fall, I put both front wheel bearings into my 1940 H Farmall and they cost me $17 each, from NAPA and I thought THAT was high! They were made in USA too.
 
I totally rebuilt a C narrow front, I may have purchased the seals and bearings from Napa, and what else I needed from IH. I can"t remember. I did the whole thing for $100. I thought that was high.
 
I'm not surprised as both CaseIH dealers here in WNY have moved their prices up considerably in the last few years. Used to use them to get away from the high AGCO prices for my White disc. I have been making strong use of the John Deere dealer to source (for them) off brand parts as of late. The one CaseIH dealer seems to be indifferent as to whether I patronize them as of late. I was never difficult for them to not be more willing to have my business.
 
I have always gotten good price on good quality bearings at Motion Industries. They have locations nationwide but are an industrial supply company and some stores are not too anxious to get walk in business.
 
What are the numbers on those bearings. I have a few new and used ones I'll sell very reasonably
email is open.

Thanks for all the responses. I called the CaseIH dealer and can return the parts for a 20% restock fee. That's a $60 lesson learned. NAPA has the 4 bearings and races for $100.
