Question for all the contractors/Handymen if we have any.

So since we had the house built a few years ago my wife has been asking me to build a window seat in the bay window area in the living room which is now going to become the play room here shortly. With that she has really been wanting me to do it before the baby arrives since that room will be the play room from that point forward. I know the fact of the matter is that I will never find enough free time anytime soon to do the project myself which is why it has yet to be done. So I had someone come out the other day and quote it for me. We are not going nuts as it will just be framed and the outside will just be drywall with molding along the bottom and it will be solid wood on top with the middle section cut and hinged so we can use the inside for storage. Nothing too crazy as even the inside will just be roughed as we will probably just use it to throw toys and what not inside of it so it doesn't need to be fancy. The dimensions will roughly be about 8ft wide by 3-4ft deep by 2-2.5ft high of course following the curve of the bay window on the inside and straight on the outside. The guy that I had come quoted me $750. So to all those who would know how to price this, does that sound fair? Seems a bit high to me but than again I am not a contractor by any means so I could be totally off base. I know people sometimes see what I do for a living and see the prices I charge and think I am robbing people but I am just charging industry standard so my thinking can be way off on a project like this. The guy who quoted me is a the husband of my wifes friend who also moved here a few years ago from NY so they go back to being childhood friends and I am friendly enough with the husband where if he is a bit on the high side I will tell him what I am willing to pay for the job and go from there. Thanks in advance.
