I agree that the $450 price tag is too steep. At a stretch, I think that anything more than $100 is not attractive, even if its a novelty item. Why don't you raise the money for mass scale production on Kickstarter. IMO its better to sell 10 K for $100 than a few hundred at $450.

If it provides business value, you can charge way more than 100 bucks. My brother had a (solari?) train-station clock of a similar shape, which was dead-on-arrival, didn't have a wood finish and probably costed about 400.

1,000,000 sold at $100 is still ...
