91 Subaru Loyale FWD - Ignition Coil?

Driving my Loyale and suddenly dies. Towed to a shop, and was told that it MAY be the ignition coil and and a power transistor.
Almost $250 to replace the coil which is what they will try first and if not they will need to put on the coil AND ignitor(?).
I was looking around and see that the ignition coil is a $29 part....Does this sound like a rip-off? Could it be the coil that went bad? The Loyale has 89,000 miles......what do you think?
