I have a peice that most shops quoted around $225, Julie did it for $145. My cousin has over 15 hours of tattoo work at Bodystain, and he hasn't spent more than $600 there. That pretty damn good considering it took 1 hour to do my $145 tattoo. I believe they also have a minimum price there. Like it is $75 to just sit in the chair. Many shops have this kind of pricing due to the artists not wanting to waste time on some shitty little tattoo. Another big thing at bodystain is if you let the artist modify it a bit, the price usually drops more.
