Boundary Survey prices--I"m baffled

I just lost a bid for a survey and am wondering about the comment made by the homeowner. I am considered "far too expensive" and this baffles me. I am wondering what a boundary survey goes for these days nationwide 'cause it sounds like I'm completely off the mark.

I just lost a bid for a survey and am wondering about the comment made by the homeowner. I am considered "far too expensive" and this baffles me. I am wondering what a boundary survey goes for these days nationwide 'cause it sounds like I'm completely off the mark.

Any answers? Ballpark, of course, price to be all inclusive: 2-3 acre subdivision lot, must file a plat if any monuments are set, snow on the ground, tree cover, very steep hill on one side, and a private driveway with angle points--can't see the property from the main road. Property about 15-20 miles from office. No recorded surveys for any abutters, just the 29-year-old subdivision plat. In PLSSia. www.colomtnsurveys.com
