Prices noted on the web can be deceptive - as first reply notes - it is best to have VALUE-ADDED services. On the web the more expensive 1st prints usually include color contract proofs (sometimes at a smaller size). Blanket prices will not state that color correction services and contract proofs are "extra". An old pricing rule was 450.00 for 1st (including hourly full color correction services w/profiling and a full size contract proof), followed by 25-45.00 for each print thereafter. Competition has softened that strategy...but for persnickity fine artists (and which artists aren't that) - you'll find yourself charging about that in the end anyway...depending on your hourly correction labor costs. If you've done all of your substrate profiling homework on a color matched system - you'll be way ahead of the game out of the gate.
