I get all the revenue will be donated but isn't 40$ a bit too much for an unframed poster?

Yeah, we debated the price for a long time and consulted PG. Keep in mind that the poster was made using high production standards. They are screen-printed by hand and embossed on really beautiful French paper. We are also just trying to maximize the amount of money we can raise for Watsi since this is a limited-edition poster.
Not if the point is to donate the profit.

Think of it like you would a charity auction; you're giving to a cause and getting a bonus item.
