Animation Pricing

Hey folks,
I have just recently started making some poses and what not to begin my career as an animator. Right now I am using Qavimator with the intent of moving up to poser when and if I learn more/do not grow bored with it.
The real question here is that I see most people all in the same line of pricing for most animations, but some creators are asking for a very high price. Not that I want to flame or call anyone out, I am just wondering how feasible that is and what constitutes the price.
For instance, if you are asking for 10-15 times the price of average is it because you are using superior equipment such as a motion capture suit or??? I do understand that if you give someone full perm items it is definately worth that or more but custom animations can be sold the very next minute in a vendor/store. Or am I missing the fine print that says if you do custom animations for someone you agree to not sell it to anyone else?

Thank you all in advance and please do not take as a rant or finger point.
Cheers,
Sal

I've seen three pricing structures since I began investigating this question for myself.

1. Poses like I build. They look ok but are far from perfect. Sometimes the body parts intersect incorrectly, maybe the legs go into the ground a little. These poses can be used from inventory or they are attached to poseballs that help to fine tune the poses. I see these priced as Free or less than L$100.

2. The second kind falls into a L$250 range. These poses do one thing very well and look good when they do them, without the sloppy mistakes from #1. These are usually buried in objects or poseballs and the creator took extra time and care with them.

3. The third kind is L$500 and above. For the most part these are great animations, with facial emotions, individual body part movements like hands caressing, feet arching, etc... These poses are works of art and have been crafted with a detail surpassing #1 and #2. The poses in this category are often used in objects that hold multiple poses. If this pose is bought with MOD/COPY/SELL permissions expect to pay L$1000+

Ok, summary. You get what you pay for.
