Need an editor

Author: Yolanda Buick

I have completed my first novel and now i'm doing two things: 1). searching for an good editor with reasonable prices; 2). having close friends read some of the work to give me their honest feedback. I have been comparing two editors for a while now and the prices are nearly the same. Is it reasonable for editors to charge almost $2k for a total editing service? I can't afford money in that area right off back, but yet I'm very interested in having my work professionally edit and submitted to publishers. One of the editors: "www.theauthorsedge.com" offers submission to agents after they do editing. The other "www.onlinefreelanceeditors.com" offers submission to publishers. Which is best to go and how much is best to spend? I need help and quick.
Also if there are any editors out there wanting to share the prices and expertise please do.
Thank you,
Yolanda
