artists should charge what their work is worth, but when I see a mug for $350 USD, it makes me a little sad. even if my bank account balance was in the comfortable seven figures, I still would not be paying almost five hundred dollars for a mug. I don’t think I could. every time I used it I’d remember that I spent five hundred dollars on a mug. I have bought frivolous items in the past, but there are limits.
