Depends on QUITE few things...
Most of ALL WHAT THE PRICE IS, Is there a lot of PROFIT?
Don't stick to a price based on what the Equipment Salesman Said u should Charge
Shop ur competition
How quickly do they need it?
Difficulty of Artwork > If they r bringing u positives TAKE IT!!
That mean they r experienced Buyers & Easy to Work with!!
What ur current workload is > Half a Paycheck is better than NONE
What type of customer:
How often do they purchase?
R they lying? Can u sell them other items?
R they a Business or Consumer?
