Default had my windows done.. bargain or not ?

I've just had my windows and doors done for me, I've paid 2k for the
front and back doors and 4 windows ( 3 about 1200*1600 and 1 was about
1200*700 ) I must admit I thought this was quite a reasonable price so
only got the one quote. Another company I spoke to on the phone were
talking about £700 just for one door.. The thing is trying to work out
where the money has gone .. I reckon all the materials can't have cost
more than 1200-1400.. so three blokes get 600-800 quid for a day...
not a bad whack really is it ? They are made by Veka.. seems like a
good make, any one know ?

It's nice having it all done in one day and I'm sitting here lovely and
warm now !

Paid £1800 for six windows and one door, fitted myself though, know
theyre done right then !!.
too many just fixed in place with foam, i've even seen some superglue
fixing heads in place to make them look anchored !!
