EricJ is correct: Max and Lightwave users expect to pay more for their models. (Not as high as some of the prices at TurboSquid, though.)
Many people have said that the Poser market is under-valued, especially when you can get high-poly models at DAZ for $1.99 in their Platinum Club or get sets of models for 75% off at Content Paradise.
How many times have merchants talked about the fact that some Poser users complain that a good-quality, $10 product is too expensive or that is should be offered for free? Many times, the Poser version comes with features that are unheard of other formats (MAT poses to apply textures, 4 or 5 (or more) sets of alternate textures, geometry swapping, etc).
If anything, the Poser version of a model should be much more expensive than the Studio Max model which does not include MAT poses and probably does not include alternate textures.
