    I think 4,500 is fair. As long as you give him only 3 designs and 1 round of revisions to a comp that he choses.. extra design is hourly from there.

    AND, he has to give you final copy. any copy changes needed after he gives you all the word docs should be hourly.

    the only thing with sites like that, is that he can go on and on forever with copy changes. seems easy but can be a big royal pain.

    I did a super simple travel agency site once that was a nightmare at the end because of stuff like that... going back and fourth on pictures and text and formatting. I put it in as is from their documents and even told them "im not a copy writer or copy editor. that's not included in this cost so any of that is charged hourly"

    i swear we went around in circles for months and months... and wouldnt launch it until it was perfect which screwed me on getting my final cheque when i wanted it.

    sometimes its worth padding a little when it comes to dealing with people who dont understand websites. they think changes sometimes take no time at all, when in fact it'll take you a day or two to make a designc hange globally across a site that you've already built out even.

    fuckers.
