I had a guy look at some of my prints and he was very complementary of the print quality - until he took one out of the secol bag and realised the paper wasn't FB. When I did the carbon quadtone stuff, I got a whole load of backsliding and 'digital isn't quite there yet' etc etc I buy a few (3-4) prints a year in the 150-250 USD mark - i.e. low end. I buy the photo, if it looks good, and I can see the quality, that is all I care about.
