So true, ask any contractor. OTOH, that one on the left is really nice.
Some serious skills there.

Agreed, and I've been guilty myself. I invited a guy to come and give me a
quote for some concrete stamping. The pad is 14x35 plus some smaller areas
that would need to match. He takes notes and tells me he can do it for
$8000. As I'm walking him out, he asks what I had in mind. "$700", I told
him. That's the last I heard of him. In hindsight, I should have politely
declined to answer.
