981 square feet at $3,000 installed? That's $27 a square yard
981 square feet at $13,000 installed? That's $119 a square yard.

There is obviously a mistake on somebody's part. Empire did our carpet and we paid the normal price.

Is it possible that they gave you a price for 981 square YARDS That would be $13 a square yard installed. More like empire's prices.
