Digital BW, The Print

Hi Carl

Sorry. I was confused by the consignment price structure that is 
listed at the site:

08x10 $15
11x14 $35
16x20 $75

Where did it say that print would sell for $750? I didn't see that on 
the "ARTIST AREA" page. Or is it based on a picture to picture basis?
Thanks.

Terry
