I got a chance to do some price-checking elsewhere today and came to the same conclusion, myself. They're actually about $50 cheaper than Pep-Boys, and none of the other places in town I was able to check do full tune-ups. And yeah, the tune-up is the complete package.
The $125 is for the parts needed for the tune-up as well as the oil change and belts, including shop-supplies, etc. Basically, what I got was a binding estimate of the final costs, so there'll be no surprises when I go in.
I did find out that Auto-Zone does free engine diagnostics if your engine light's on, though so I saved myself $30 by stopping over there to get it done. Mine is because there's an error in one of the pre-catalytic O2 sensors, which is awkward to get to but easy to fix once you do.
