Good question!.!.!.

The first poster was correct in that you should do some basic online research and check out what other prices there are!.!.!.

Having said that, there's huge variations in pricing!. But definitely go to Art!.com and look at their range of work, layout and pricing!. They are very professional in their approach!. You could also go and have a look at CafePress!.com to get some ideas of pricing, and also different ways to 'sell' your images!. For example you could put your images on t-shirts, mugs, calendars and so on!.

This might be another potential way of selling your photos online!.!.!.

I actually created a guide that shows how to sell your photos using eBay and how to use CafePress to print them!. If you're interested in this then have a look at:

the best thing to do is go on other sites and see what your competition is doing !.!.!. there are many factors involved here!.!.!. the size of the prints, the way in which they are done, and amount invested in each one bu you, who pays packaging and shipping!.!.!. are they to be shipped with insurance!.!.things like these make a great deal of difference in what you have to charge!. Marketing and pricing is always two of the most difficult things to budget for people just starting out !.!.!.!.!. best case deal is look at others doing similar things and strike a happy median between their prices!. good luckWww@QuestionHome@Com

Some people follow the guideline:

Compute your costs of post production, printing and then double that!.

Some charge more, some less, depending on market and target clientelle!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
