On that same note, if you think that it is worth $100 then sell it for that price.

Why?: - I have another day-job; i don't need to earn my living from it. - I've had about 250 sales in a month. If i need to be able to survive of it, i'd need to sell about at least $4000 monthly --> $4000 / 250 = $16 per download. I don't think anyone would have bought it at $16. In short, i can't make a living of it selling this app, for any price. I think it's a great little app (hey, i wrote it :=)), but certainly no more worth than $3. I put it at $1 to get as many downloads as possible without making it free.

If it doesn't simply fart it can't possibly be $1 unless you suspect thousands and thousands of sales. Think about it, if you've developed the app in 1 month, and you are "paying" yourself $3K, this means that you'll have to reach 1,300 sales before you break even (before taxes!). Given that a FEW apps so far have jumped over 1K sales... I'd price any productivity app anywhere *above* $4, and a game at $5+ but that's just me. Hell, a McDonald's cheeseburger is > $1 and will only satisfy your hunger once, tomorrow you'll have to get another one, while the app is still owned and used by the user. Whatever.

So I would consider either $1 or $2 (or UK equivalents) as the most popular price points.
