I am trying to decide whether to have custom bookcases built or just
try to find some free-standing ones.
I got a quote from a local cabinet maker for a painted 10' x 10' unit
that is 12" deep on the top part where there is open shelving and
about 16" deep on the bottom where there will be cabinet doors.
The quote is approx. $6000 and I was surprised at the high cost. I
live in Louisiana -- anyone have opinions on this price???

Also, any suggestions where I might find some really nice bookcases
(open on top with cabinets on bottom -- very tall preferably) either
online or b&m??
Thanks for your help!


Price depends on quality. So if the quality is high $6,000 is cheap.
If the quality is "builder special," then it is high.

I built my own and they are just want I wanted. Not too hard. but if
you have to ask how, I suggest not doing it yourself.
