I get about the same for a custom portrait. I usually use Baltic Birch or Oak plywood, matted and framed behind glass. The only other thing I do is charge a $25.00 non-refundable pattern fee if I have to make the pattern.

 

For turned pens, I usually charge two or two and a half times the actual cost of supplies. This seems to work and most people can't believe the pens are so cheap.

I've not ever tried to sell my work. However, I do know that Kevin (Jediscroller) on AFSP (now the Fox Chapel Forum at scrollsawer.com/forum) had a formula for how to price your work based on time spent working, materials etc... If you're a member of the Fox Chapel forum you might ask him for it again.
