Sorry, I didn't see your post earlier...
servings = 25
$150 sounds good to me...I've never done a purse cake, so I don't know how much time is involved and how complicated it is.

that cake is going to be work just cause of the Gucci emblem. Spacing them right, getting them on htere right, coloring the entire purse, all of it. $250.

the design of that purse is a basic one that shouldn;t give you any trouble. the logo can be free handed on and the handles are laying down, not standing up. You'll be able to make this out of a 9x13, cut into 3 sections, stacked and trimmed a little. Minimum price $150, if you do the logo in better detail or the handles standing id go up $175-$200.

How do you copy the Gucci logo without violating their copyright? Just askin'.
