   to most granite shops that size would be almost considered waste.... so anything they could get for it would be good...

   if it was $25 a sf as counter top material... when it was 5ft x 10ft  then it should be  a $50-$75 piece cut and finished for your size...   it's found money to them at this point....  when you go shopping for it.... make sure you tell em you're looking for a "drop" about 12" x 60" in something nice... tell em you have $50 to spend and ask what they have for that $ figure...  you might be surprised at what you get offered

   If I was writing up a quote, I don't think I would make a guess on a Sunday nite.  Rather make a call on Monday morning.

   If I went to the guys I've used for a few granite jobs I might get a deal on the stone.  But, there's the cutting, edgework and polishing to add to it.

   I have extensive experience in the countertop business and I find nothing in Ponytl's post with which to disagree.
