Aye, but then I guess the sellers are banking on the rarity and that he isn't doing any more... In which case not so bad and could if an original be considered cheap, and then there's the frame...
I note that the one we were bidding on at the beginning back in 2006 went for £123.51 so if it's the same painting the asking price hasn't gone up that much and is slightly high to other offerings by the same artist currently listed on e.bay
