Metal bids will vary widely - and that is one of the drawbacks too.
By way of example, our first bid - materials only - was a little over $32k. This was for a metal "shingle" product that looks like those old asphalt diamond shaped shingles, plus a half conical standing seam section.
The product we actually used cost around $5k and was the top of the line product for the company that makes it - we could have gotten out of this for around 3k if we didn't mind lots of little screw holes.
It does sound like whatever you use will work fine Ned. I find I like moving metal panels around a lot more than packages of shingles, but if you go to a wholesale supplier, they'll probably deliver with one of those conveyor belt trucks, and that would make the job too easy
