You want an internet price so you can make a counter offer when you get a quote from a local shop? If you walk into shop "abc "and tell them shop "xyz" will do it for X$ they are likely to send you out the door to "xyz".

nope, i want an estimate on upholstery to negotiate the price of the vehicle that needs the work done.
I think L337's asking "what's a reasonable price?" so he doesn't get blown out of the water with a stupid price.
I was into fixing up older solid boats for a while and a lot of times the interior vinyl was shot and needed to be replaced. After pricing it out and was floored by the cost i bought a Sailright sewing machine and learned to do it my self saving thousands of dollars. With just a little practice double stitching, piping, multi color in a pattern is fairly easy.
You can learn a lot from youtube about sewing if you pay attention and copy what they do. Just take our time it's not that hard.

I’ve been quoted $1000 for two front seats in leather

If you supply the pre-cut seat kit, and remove the seats yourself to drop off at the shop, the labor would likely be in the 500 range. On the other hand, I dropped a truck off to a local shop and had a full leather seat surface / vinyl seat back interior installed on an extended cab, the shop sourced the leather kit, and that ran me 1400 installed.

Are you expecting the seller to drop the quoted amount off the price?

No, but it is a negotiating tool.
