I have very little experience in this area, but $18,000 for a static, text heavy site, sounds like way too much money.
If he wanted a simple banner, and a table of contents styled navigation, with pages of text, in all honesty that doesn't even sound like the kind of thing that could break $2,000.
Sounds like a site that, after graphics were done, could be created in a day.

My wife's uncle is a physician and just received a bid for a site he wants made. he came to me because he thought the bd was high. I'm not a designer but thought I would pass his question along. Please let me know how this sounds to you.
He wants a 20-30 page static html site made that focuses on breast disease. The audience is other physicians, and while design is important to the site, it need not be cutting edge in any way. It is text-heavy, information-based, and needs to load quickly. All the pages will have a similar design.
He was quoted $18,000 for the job. The design company also wants to retain the copyright and will sell the copyright to him at an additional 30%, totalling $23,400.
He's a good guy, does important work, and I want to help him out. Is this a reasonable bid?
