When i read this comment i had to go look at the product because i was expecting 10-20k. Looks very reasonable to me. The most expensive is only $2500? and the cheapest only $600? Seems super inline with what I would expect to pay for art.

You're not paying for art. You're paying for paper you can later display art on.

Also, with e.g. an oil painting on canvas, the cost of producing that is the time of the artist to paint it by hand. I don't think 10-20K is anywhere reasonable for e.g. a mass-produced inkjet-printed thing. Likewise 10-20K for a PNG file would be even more insane.
