I'd pay up to 300 in my local currency/35 USD because I acknowledge the effort of preparations to get the material + time + skill that something like this requires (which I am happy to share to encourage all of the talented artists on Reddit). I have the ability to recreate something similar but then it'd only be for myself because the design is beautiful and all OP's... so ignore the joke in my previous post about stealing the idea, please. Credit should go to the right person so I won't be setting up my own tiny owl shop ;)

That is not a fair reflection of the amount of time/effort/material that went into this. I’d expect to pay $75-100 USD for this at minimum

Honestly, this is not even a a fair reflection either. I'd expect to pay $150-200 USD for this at minimum

I think that is highway robbery. I would expect anywhere between $500-$750 USD and that is the absolute minimum.

$3,000 at least

$3000? There's no way OP could reasonably sell this for less than $10,000 USD
