Experience with Mini split AC ?

I was toying with the idea of mini splits basically for just 2 rooms upstairs that face the afternoon sun (downstairs is sheltered from the sun by trees and a deck and 15-20F cooler). I had our regular plumbing/heating guy come in for a quote and nearly choked on it...

$6500 for 2x Fujitsu split minis (on each side of the same wall, not even that much drilling) with electrical and warranty... Vs $6000 to just A/C the whole house... The whole house is cheaper!!!

I thought mini splits were cheaper than that, I recall a $2000 install in the distant past! Opinions on quote and or suitability ? I was thinking of them because I don't need A/C downstairs at all, and I'd have to close vents or something... I'm probably just gonna buy a fan instead !
