I'm really bad at pricing art, but I DO know that if you cleaned those up a bit they'd be worth ten times more. Would you mind if I take one of those onto photoshop and show you what I mean?

Wow. Your art is really cute, Gin !

I can't wait to start buying if you'd like to draw my avi, once you have the pricing sorted out.

Wish I knew more about pricing art so I could help ya out, but unfortunately I don't, sorry. >_<

I'd be glad to buy from you once you're ready, though !

Cleaning-up process
The first picture is the original. For the second, I used the "Levels" tool and played around with it a bit to get the contrast a little better. The third I manually erased most of the grey bits I didn't need, then the fourth I used the dodge and burn tools to get the background white and the lines dark. In the fourth one I used the eraser, dodge and burn tools to manually clean up bits of the image, finishing it off. This can easily be done with the free program GIMP, and really does add value to your art. Good luck selling! ^^

No probs. I'd recommend downloading GIMP and playing around with it, trying to get the best results. You might find a better way to do it than how I do it! >w< Just remember the aim is to have the background white and the lines as dark as possible.

Your art is adorable(:
How much are they???

The artwork is really cute, but due to the low quality of the scans and since they're only chibi and black and white I'd price them around 5-8k. If you decide to do color than I'd say about 10k for those.

Sources- I've done avatar art before.
