inMy neighborhood fair changed how I see bookbinding
Charge by the emotional damage, ha! Wade_perez nailed it. I had a lady pick up a journal I spent days on, then ask if I'd take five bucks. Like @the_jennifer said, haggle sessions can get wild. My rule now is to list materials and time right on the tag so people get it. You still get the gasp, but at least they see why it costs more. It doesn't stop all the lowball offers, but it helps me feel better about my prices.
