The reason I green-lit this post is because it's a really interesting topic. Points vs Cash commissions, or as I call it "monopoly money" work on websites that offer credits/points/virtual currency instead of money. I'm curious about it, as I refuse to take commissions like these. I'd like to hear a discussion on the general topic.

In short, charge what you feel you should charge. 400 points sounds like an awful small amount for any sort of effort, and people will always complain about prices regardless of how cheap you are. Hold your ground, and charge what you deserve. I personally would stop using virtual currency in general, as it has a whole slew of issues (like no refunds) that cause it to be a hassle.
