No sweat.
That sounds like the right kind of price for an engine swap, it may not be completely brand new however, maybe a low km 2nd hand unit with warranty, or they might fix yours (doubt it). A mate of mine had his Suzuki Swift GTi motor changed for $1000 plus labour, and that was a 2nd hand tested motor with warranty, still goes strong too....even though he hasn't looked after it.
It's not like you're going to be keeping the car for 5yrs + and you need a brand new motor anyway, especially if you want to do a conversion later on down the track.
Just make sure the warranty is up to scratch, read all the fine print and ask the history of where the motor (if it's a switcharoo) is getting supplied from and if it was tested, try to get the results (rare, but worth a try)

Cheers,
