Pricing of
some of the sculptures of the Venusian World are based on their components.
Each sculpture requires a base that includes a transformer to power
the neon tube(s). The base, in may be complete in iteself (such
as the zinc and pod bases) or may require additional components
such as the Garden Sculpture bases that require either glass ("Swamp
Stones") for the Swamp Gardens or black rocks for the Rock
Gardens. The glass "stones" and black rocks are sold by
the pound.
The neon tubes are priced separately (based on complexity) and are
generally interchangeable with one another. The glass components
of the various Swamp Flowers are also priced separately, based on
complexity. To determine the final price of a sculpture, one adds
the price of the base, the neon tube(s) and other components if
applicable, such as the glass components and rocks.
When purchasing a base with multiple housings for multiple neon
tubes, "plugs" can be inserted into housings that are
not being used so that the Garden can "grow" with future
additions. See below for some sample pricings.
