from what i know, $350usd is a fair deal for both parties.. but it all depends on what client you have..

depending on the market the audience is sold to, the graphic artist guild handbook suggests anywhere from 750 to 4000.
i hope its a fabio style paperback!

"from what i know, $350usd is a fair deal for both partie"
what do you mean by both parties?

$350?
i would think we'd be talking atleast quadruple that.
will you be sending this to your printer - or supplying final digital files.
if you're having it printed, I would mark up the printing total by about 15% if you think that's fair.
it covers the inevitable coordination hassles involved with seeing a project through.
