Herbs and Potion prices. What do you think is a fair price to pay?

I been ruining around looking at a majority of all the guild store merchants to see what the prices are on herbs. What I can see is that the prices are very different so I was thinking what do you think is a fair price for herbs or potions?

Consider this though.

You usually end up using 60-80 potions for one run of hard mode Dragonstar Arena attempt.

To craft the potions used for this type of content you need 3 herbs and of those 3 herbs you will get 4 potions so price per potion is (H*3/4=X),herb price=H . This means that if you buy herbs for 200g each your potion costs 150g each.

    I sell my potions for 50g per potion. Myself i wouldn't spent a dime on it. It is easy to create them yourself.

    What the mathematics doesn't account for is the time spent to level alchemy and the skill points spent to achieve the best outcomes. A premium needs to be added to the crafting price to account for this, much like a mechanic charges for more than the price of the replacement part.

    I would prefear you had comment in the poll thread here http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/134316/herbs-and-potion-prices-what-do-you-think-is-a-fair-price-to-pay#latest.

    But the main reason I started this thread is because I saw an alarming amount of players try to sell herbs for 600-800 gold each and wondered how they managed to justify those prices.
