hi, I'll be flying Manado to Denpasar in May and have been quoted from the ticketing agent in Manado airport 1,331,300 rupiah per way, so that's 2,662,600 return trip; roughly $295, possibly even less if you get really good exchange rate (which is possible in June owing to the fact that election troubles could make the Rupiah drop).
You could try to BOOK the flight from home, but then only pay when you arrive in Bali, that way you at least know what your itinerary is goining to be. and yes, with a choice between Garuda and Merpati, Garuda will be your most reliable option.
good luck
