Yes. In a single word it comes down to competition. You buy most (all?) Things based on the competitive market but people blindly accept the builder offers a great price on tile, granite? Of course not. Ask yourself the cost of a few easily priced upgrades and if they are fairly priced.

Quartz at home depot is 75-/+ a sq ft at home depot (installed) for example. The builder wants 16,200 for that. What home has 108 linear feet of counter space? None.
