I could understand a small mark up if you can't make it to conventions he goes to- like $25 or something, but I just don't seem them going for what they do go for. It's cool to have something by him, and Adam and his wife were really nice people when I got mine, and it's nice to donate to charity, but it's not the greatest example of his work. Then again, I'm probably not one to talk, considering some of the questionable purchases I've made.

If I recall years ago I got a full figure sketch from Adam still framed for about $100. At some point recently it was up to like $200 - $400 or something depending on how you wanted it done. Now he doesn't do any outside of head sketches. Sucks since I couldn't get another one from him, hell I'd pay for a commission up to $400 or $1000 if I was getting a full fledged quality professional piece. I wish he'd do more interiors or something.

Yeah $2000-$3000 is an international vacation or something and as much as I love his art, I'm not paying that at this stage. It is an unfortunate situation the artists are in. I think Stuart Immonen feels similar and is part of the reason he doesn't do commissions.
