how would you know what to ask price wise for tattoo knowing you are not being over charged for it ?

A tattoo shop can only go so low in price because of the inks, tat needles, etc. And not mention the fact of what tattoo you are getting. In terms of detail,size color, and the quality.

Go to the shop or phone if you've got a number.\n\nI think the price isn't even the same in all Virgin shops - I've seen things on special offer in one that weren't in another

It all depends.  If you hava a certificate of authenticity the price will rise.  If you actual evidence that they signed (like a video clip) your sitting on a little goldmine.  A Jamie Carragher shirt like that goes for 100-125 pounds on e bay.

"How long is a piece of string?"\n\nWell really you could expect to pay from £10 per hour up to £60! Generally you do get what you pay for. If you are looking for a designer, take a look at their previous work and make sure they have the talent you need.\n\nIf you do decide to go ahead, you may want to get a project based price (i.e.: they agree to do your work for a fixed price - which cannot go up).\n\nGet it all in a contract!\n\nStewart

to many variables here, how high, time frame, new or old construction, what brand of paint ,  am I going to need any specialty equiptment, any duct work to paint, any metal doors, overhead doors,\nmost of the time you cant get a sq ft price till someone sees the print or knows all the info.

Check out the competition that exists presently on the net.  That way you will be able to work out how much gets charged.  Then contact the website.  Compare what you are offered and make a guess.

Get something original drawn up by someone whose art you like and take it to the tattoo artist or check out different tattoo artists and see what their originals look like. Don't just pick something off the wall or out of the book. You're paying for a piece of art that is permanent, get something as original as you are, not a copy! Don't get any names unless it's your mom's or your kid's. If you have checked out a lot of different artists and have found one whose work you like, but still haven't quite figured out what you would like done, talk to them about your ideas and what you would like your tatt to express about you. They'll be happy to work on something that will make you happy. The dirty secret of tattoo artists is that they HATE doing other artists' flash. It's boring to them (they are just copying another artist) and they can bang them out in a hurry and charge you way more for it per hour than if you got something original. They generally don't have much respect for someone who points at some pic on the wall and says, "I want one of those." \n\nAs to where, I can only offer that as a rule, tatts over some bony part of your body like an ankle or the small of your back will seem to hurt more than on a more fleshy part like your thigh or shoulder, especially your first time. And I would generally avoid anything that you can't cover with conservative clothing if you would have a job interview or something like that. With a few exceptions (Jesse James, rock stars, NBA players) the farther down the arm the tattoo, the lower the tax bracket.

Possibly a card shop. They told me my values for free, and will usually do it unless they don't know.

how much you should spend depends on a few things. what is your income. how much have you spent in previous years. and how much total you have to work with. if you are a starving artist...don't spend 300 dollars. if you usually spend 300 bucks, don't start spending 50 now. and you also need to consider if you have 5 other people to buy for, or 25 other people to buy for. \nonce all of this is considered you should have a better idea of what to spend. \nneed some gift ideas? i don't know you or her...so i can't give specifics...but i will tell you that maybe it would you should think about whether you are going to buy 1 100 dollar gift or spend 20 bucks a piece and get her 5 gifts. think about it. \nand good luck.

Just a Guy ~\n                     EBay, Brother. Put up a price and a description and picture and let the people come to you with offers. Then you'll get an idea of what they are worth.

Yes, if the place isn't clean or if the needle isn't sterile. Check the place out well. Check their work (the designs they have done), check out the work space. Check out the needles. Talk to the artist. Do your homework, this is going to be with you for life. It is worth paying for the quality.

You should state what town or county it is in and how much you are asking for.  Just a thought.

They probably won't trust you and sense that you're lying.  You should first try to find out what they can afford, and see if they will give an estimate as to what they're willing to pay before you suggest a price.\n\nVisit www.abnsave.com to save money on every day office supplies and services from national vendors like Office Depot, Hertz, Kinko's, and UPS.

As with any price question in a free market, the designer whould charge whatever the buyer will pay.  How much do you think a good logo will affect the success of your business?  After you know that, you can decide what it is worth to you.  If one designer doesn't like what you are willing to pay, find another.  Design students are a great resource for affordable talent.\n\nI would think the more pertinent price is what are you getting for whatever price you negotiate.  Do you get to keep seeing designs until you find one you like, or are you paying for 10 concepts from which to choose?  Personally, I would rather pay by number than hour.
