Yes, this seems a little bit pricey, I recently quoted 1200 6x11" for about
that price.
The price you'll get obviously will depend on the features you want, like:
material, solder mask, silk screen, quantity of holes, hole sizes, minimum
track and spacing width, etc.

We usually quote with two or three sources to find the best value for the
money, and we have had good luck with Colt Technologies (www.colttech.com).

Good luck,
