So what's the going rate to have a tree taken down? We just got a quote to fell two dead pines, maybe 50-75' on the tall one and half that on the little. They want $750 to take them down and leave them where they fall (my plan was to cut them up myself)

Do I have an unrealistic idea of what things costs because that sounds ridiculous. For 750 bucks they will stay right where they are.
