Default A/C Compressor Advice

Hello,

My girlfriends 2006 Mini Cooper S a/c compressor went out and I am curious if you can give some advice/point in the direction of the best places to buy the parts.

Firestone quoted the following:

$577 for the compressor
$244 for removal and replacement of compressor
$63 for drier
$51 to remove and replace drier
$122 total to evacuate and recharge the A/C.

The part numbers given at firestone are DS2068 and RD1088LC

I found an a/c compressor on ebay for 228-345 but am curious as to the quality of them. Any advice appreciated. We live in the Miami area if anyone has any recommendations as well.

Thank you
