I have a couple of quotes on my 8x4 metre pool (less lineal metres than a 10x3) and that price seems very competitive. Blog is now up - http://www.jbdave.blogspot.com/ Re: How much for a pool? 25Feb 20, 2010 8:17 pm We are currently getting quotes for an 8x4 freeform concrete pool and quotes are coming in around mid $30's in Melbourne. Includes everything for the pool incl lights (excludes coping though, but will lay it for us). Cost of fencing, paving and other landscaping is NOT included and according to our costings we will be looking at around another $15-20k for what we want (nothing extravagant)...LOL. Hope this helps someone out.
