    Me and my co-workers call this the “wal-mart effect”. People nowadays are so used to getting rock bottom pricing from large corporations that they are usually appalled when someone charges what something is actually worth. However, when you really think about it, most of what those places sell is literally cheap crap (unreliable, inexpensive, flimsy items that won’t last you worth a damn).

    Whenever i do a commission for someone, price is the first thing I will discuss because it lets me know whether they are serious about it or not (before I waste any time getting details from them). Whenever people give me those “but I can get it from such and so for this price” I always respond “then go do that.” I’m not one to be baited into an argument by things like that because I know whatever product they end up getting will not be as good, well-made, or detailed and they will be disappointed with it in the end (which is satisfaction for me).

    yeah, people do that all the time, and it is rude to tell someone how to price their stuff. It is basically them saying you are not good enough to be making so much money, and it is really not their business to decide that.

    *sorry if this sounded angry, but people like that make me mad* 🙂

      Well, I can sympathize. They tend to make me mad too.
