Eric,

9.000 euros is around $12,000 so it doesn't seem a bad price.  I think 
the cost of a  48x60 diasec from a lab might be roughly a thousand euros 
(it isn't a cheap process), so if a gallery sold the full edition there 
would be a net income of around 70,000 euros from the edition.   Not a 
bad living surely!

(And 9,00 Euros is about $12.00)
