How do you figure out a character’s worth?

I’m not interested in trading/selling any of my babies, but I’m curious about their worth. How do you figure it? Is it all of their art put together based on how much it cost?

I typically base mine if I plan to sell them on how much I've spent on them. So, if I buy a character for $50 and have spent $100 on extra art, then it's total worth would be $150. If it's a character I've made myself, then I just do whatever I think is fair based on how much art and the time spent on said art (presuming it's all drawn by me and has no extras)

sometimes its a gut feeling, like, sometimes i ask myself, if someone came up to me and offered 50$ for (OC) would i take it? and it ussually goes up with price like that. for example i would probably take 500$ for israel, even tho its not a lot of high quantity/quality art and not a complex design, thats the price in my head that realistically i would say yes to a sale. others such as lauren i would feel realistically comfortable at like 1$ lol
