These are quality designs, and medium-large size businesses, mind you.
Much different than vB skins, wp themes, etc. aimed at non-profit, individuals, and small businesses.

even at the skin range $250 is a slap in the face for anything decent. what the design is applied to doesn't increase/decrease the value of it.
if you don't actually do anything and you bang it out start to finish in 2 hours, sure, $200 is great money, but nothing's worth buying at that point.
