But how much do I sell them for?!

I'm going to blow them up nice and big tomorrow, and is going to cost about a tenner.

I don't want to outprice myself, but at the same time I want to make a nice profit.

The three of them will go up for sale individually, but I'm assuming the person who has shown interest will buy them all..
He just left me a message saying "I want to buy your fireworks pictures"
Mmmmk!

So..price suggestions please!

Whats the average going rate for photographs being sold by a poor art student!

You've made me cross.

You should *not* be trying to work out the going rate for photos being sold by a poor student.

If someone wants to buy them, they are or a quality that justifies someone spending money on them, so treat them as such. Go and look at some sites that sell prints of a similar style and size. Don't ever undersell your work or yourself. Start as you mean to go on! biggrin

The optimist claims that we are living in the best of all possible worlds.
The pessimist fears this is true.

Oooh, pretty!

I've seen similar go for between £20 - £60, it's definitely worth looking at what others charge on the web though as these look quality!

Well done for the pictures!!
Why don't you ask what size they want (if they're getting printed) and ask for £40 each, if it's a poster-size. More if it is bigger.
If they're not prints, ask for £30 each

be careful - if its just a one-off sale of a print, you're fine to just haggle out a price that seems fair to both you and the buyer.

however, if they want any kind of rights assigned to them (e.g. for sole use or for future use in anything other than the format you've supplied them in), the price shoots waaaaaaay up smile
