The problem is, you can hardly get that amount of money when you list your theme on forum/marketplace. On the other hand, multiple sale of a theme is definitely something I need to switch on.

On the other hand, if you plan to sell it to anyone who is interested, like most do, 79dollar seems more appropriate. In the last case, if your theme is any good you will get a lot of buyers because you have the "world" as your client. In that case you can make much more money but then you have to give good support as well. In the last case your 15 hours of work will be really well payed, no?
