Default Limited editions

I had forgotten that I sold one about 2 years ago. It was of a steam locomotive in the Museum where I work (when it is open). It was, even if I say so myself a very atmospheric A3 print which I sepia toned. It was actually unique because it was it's last day 'in steam'. I put it up for sale as a mounted 20x16 framed print and asked £25 for it and it sat there for months.

I decided to try another tac and changed the sales card and called it a limited edition, which it was (and still is) I marked the back of the mount that this was the only copy and would never be printed again.

I bumped the price up to £45 and it went within a week. Was it coincidence that a buyer came along just then or the fact that the guy who bought it thought he was getting a bargain.
