I've had 3 quotes for 1.9mtr high deer fencing with rabbit fencing clipped to it and the return laid on top of the grass:

Quote 1 £16 p.m. (haggled down from £23)
Quote 2 £9.98 p.m.
Quote 3 £30-35 p.m.

Which do I go for?

I really don't know. How can there be such a HUGE difference?

I see your point, is this just to buy it or have it put up by someone?
If your doing it yourself, go for the cheap one. You can afford to replace it three times.
Or get a sample!

Oh Er, Well quote 3 sounds like a no, quote one sounds desperate, which might mean he gets no work cause he's not very good. Thats leaves number 2.
Dont have a go if the advice turns out duffer though

No 2 sounded and looked like a reasonable bloke, apart from the fact he's a Kiwi...

Can you see some of their previous work before making a decision?

No 2's going to give me a list of sites, including some RSPB and Essex Wildlife Trust work.

If its good enough for the Essex wildlife trust, it must be good enough for "Tahir Gardens" Ltd

middle
i always tried to put in the middle quote ,it allows for the unexpected and allows for a profit .
either side of the deal the middle quote is safest
