Quick answer

Barbed wire is priced by the roll, and the price depends mainly on the wire gauge (thickness), roll length, barb spacing and coating (galvanized lasts longer outdoors). For a full fence, posts, straining wire, droppers and labour make up much of the total, so quotes are based on the fence length and layout.
