Like when I put out commissions I basically went '5 dollars for a pencil sketch, 3 more to color it, 1 person base; +33% for extra people', so I was looking at about 5-8 dollars for something roughly around this (probably with more dynamic posing, this was a ref pic), yet I was still not seeing people coming in because I lacked the traffic for it.
Basically the people who charge assloads of cash are the popular people who have guaranteed buyers that aren't getting actual competition from cheaper people in other places.
