You need to look at space in your place to determine full body mount compared to rug. Also think of a half body mount to save space if needed.
Only con for a rug ( especially if used on floor ) wear and tear of foot traffic. Possible eyes or ears breaking. Con for full body, space. Pro, hang on wall to save room for rug. Pro for full body, totally cool!
Pricing is going to depend on what you want done. Depending on size I would say your going to start at $800+ and go up from there.
Time should be about the same on any of them.
Most taxis will try to do the full body because of the $. Just make sure you get what you want.

Average size bear for a rug will be bout $800, open mouth will add to it and felt if you want the back done like that will add some too. Depending on the taxi you use a life size will run from bout $2000 and up. A half life size would be the cheapest way, $600 and up.
