back in 03-05, when i was really into the beat making thing. I got away with selling beats for R500 a pop! And i actually sold a couple suprisingly enough.
That was a lot of money, especially cos i was still in varsity. I guess if you put a high price on your stuff it automatically gives the impression that there is value to it. and it worked. dudes would save money to cop my stuff cos there was a belief that it had value. and all my beats had that price tag. whether i made em in 5 minutes or if i actually put any work into them at all. strangely, prospective buyers didnt really hear much of a difference between rushed beats and well done beats so it was always a win - win situation for me.
I say if you are not planning to eat off beats, put a high price to em. you make no loss from people not buying, but when they eventually do buy, the profit is maximum. And lets face it, most of us who were into making beats or still are only did so for fun or for love. so to say we are charging for work put in would be silly.
