In general, I think the items here are very cheap, especially compared to what places like DAZ is charging. (Remember, DAZ usually charges extra for textures -- and most items in the Renderosity store are already textured.) I would have easily spent double what I spent for most products. And I think many vendors, such as myself, do separate pricing from the amount of work put into it. Otherwise, it's too depressing to think about. (Once, I did calculate how much work I put in versus how much I made and it came out to something like $1 an hour. Granted, I've only been selling for about six weeks or so. Perhaps after a year of sales, that figure might go up to $2 an hour ;) I know other vendors who make even less than that.) Bottom line: pricing is still a big mystery to me. If anyone has some guidelines, please post them.
