Try Wayfair.com. I just bought grommet blackout drapes and curtain rods for 3 rooms in my new house. 2 of the windows were 120". Total price was about $300.
Not sure what you did (or I did wrong), but following the link, 150X80 is $1,024 which is about what I'd expect. The quote for the sheers was $1,000 which I did not expect at all. Thought sheers and a basic rod would be about $300-$500. Good to see though that HD has a Bali sale. We may run up there and see what they can do. ....

IKEA sells drapery panels that are really inexpensive. They also carry long panels to fit tall windows/sliding door openings.

Perhaps he clicked on the second link (that ends in 9) rather than the first (which ends in 5).
The house we purchased already had custom cornice boards and beautiful wood blinds in every window.
I don't want to know the cost. Have to rely on DW to get the best price. She always does. I am just a little concerned about what that 'best price' could be.
Maybe we should just keep what is already there and spend the money on travel. That would be my choice. Then again, maybe not. Happy wife, happy life.
Whatever you do, make sure the carpet matches the drapes.
All overpriced. Just sew together a bunch of used dryer sheets.
No carpet in the new house. Apparently that went out of style a few years ago.

The "wood blinds" are plantation shutters and when I had them installed in several windows they ran $30/square foot through Costco. The good news is that I love them.
Here are my new drapes
Closed and open;
3 grommeted panels and the new rod with the fancy finials was $200 at Bed, Bath and Beyond.
How's that for cheap? Don't want expensive stuff there, that door gets a lot of use by us and the dogs.
