If it is still in the original box and has never been framed or removed then you can ask around $200 to $275 for the print. This is in excellent condition. I would start off with $300 and then adjust the price according to what people offer you.

Got to eBay and see if there is a listing for sale on your particular Kinkade print . If you want to sell it then list accordingly, but remember you will have to mail it and that will cut into your profit, plus eBay takes a percentage of your sale.

Unfortunately there are a lot of challenges valuing kincaide prints. That yours is in the original packaging is helpful.

When using eBay you will need to find your exact item in the exact condition (ie in original package). You also need to use sold items, not current auctions as people can ask the world; sold tells you what someone actually paid.

All that said, I find no exact matches to your print on eBay at this moment. The market changes minute by minute, so you may find 5 tomorrow.

If there are multiple sold, average them together to get today's current market value.

Because there are so many of his prints out there, once you have a value. If you are going to list it online, do so at a time when there are none like yours listed, that way the supplies will be low and if there is any demand, they will buy yours.

mainly because they were overproduced by franchise art studios and so unless you have one made by him original, probably not worth much as an investment per se

"The self-proclaimed and trademarked "painter of light" was so popular among fans of pastels and candlelit windows that his company, Media Arts Group, went public with a $110 IPO in 1994. Kinkade was MDA on the NYSE until January 2004, when he bought in back for $32.7 million after the stock had lost more than 80% of its value. It was kind of like buying a Kinkade painting that may have had some nonsentimental value in the pre-Internet '90s, but when the Internet hit and the markets were flooded with Kinkades selling for much less than they were in stores, investment value plummeted.
"He has gorgeous stuff, but they QVCed it to death," Kahn says. "They sell beautiful Kinkade prints in galleries and on cruise ships, but the frames are worth more than the prints.""
