Shops will charge for turning the rotors as well. The price should be well under $200. BTW- why are your rear brakes worn out so soon?

The OE rear pads are pretty thin, but that's no excuse to replace them early. Regardless, it's a 20 min job. If the rotors are rusting I'd just wait until the pads wear out and replace rotors at the same time. "Turning" the rotors is not a good idea, as they're a bit small (thin) to begin with. Yes, $150-200 if just pads, or $300-350 with rotors too.
