Sigs. How much are they worth?

Hey people.

I've been told by two people now that I charge way less then they are for sigs...

I average 40k - 50k per sig + bonuses.
5k - 10k per avatar.

Where as others get about 100k - 200k + Bonuses. (Only two have said that so far though.)

So I was wondering, what you, the buyers, think....

I know it depends on the quality too, so your welcome to say how much you think mine are worth personally (Be serious about it though) because not everyone is like Lord Nequal or Tal_Rasher ;)

Re: Sigs. How much are they worth?

I think u are pretty cheap for sigs, but then again it all depends how long u take to make them if u can make them really quick its a fair price if u take a lot of time and use lots of filters and stuff it should be more expensive, for some of ur amazing work 200k is not that outrageous

II :-D

Re: Sigs. How much are they worth?

I would agree with Infinite Insanity but at the end of the day you can charge what you think the time and energy in making is worth to you as that is what dictates the price.

Re: Sigs. How much are they worth?

Meh, personally I think over 100k UU is a lot. I usually charge around 35-50k UU for a sig/ava set that is not animated.

i would agree with that :D but normally when i sell, what ever the buyer wants to pay they can. 20k UU is normally the minimum for a sig, but anything above that its up to them :D not that at the minute i have alot of spare time to make them...

I'd say they are worth whatever someone is willing to pay for them.

Re: Sigs. How much are they worth?

The most I've ever paid for a sig was 400k, and it was created for use in a different forum, but I can say that it's easily one of the most amazing siggys I've ever laid eyes upon, and well worth the 400k UU I paid for it. Hell, it took my bud about 3 days to make it.

Then again, I was very specific on what I wanted. He only wanted 100k, but I tipped him 3x that much because of how fantastic it looked.

Re: Sigs. How much are they worth?

If I'm really happy with a signature/avatar someone has made for me, I'll pay them a little extra. Call it a 'tip' if you will. The person who made my current avatar got three times what he asked for, because I was so pleased with it.

Re: Sigs. How much are they worth?

I charge huge amounts for animated sigs, because they take so long to make properly and to a good standard, its as simple as. People dont like the price I put on animated sigs because they dont realise the time they take. (I charge 500k uu for a large animated sig, and thats a price in some cases I may be willing to lower to as far as 300k, depending on the circumstances of the sig)

Otherwise id never make a sig for someone below 150k uu. and id never make an animated sig (with clip i am referring to) for less then 250k uu.
