You may be closer to the truth than you realise, Andrew.
I quote from the 2006 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition catalogue:
564 Life is... GBP195
giclée print
Shelley Rose
(edition of 25: GBP95 each)
Now you may wonder what is the difference between a "giclée print" at
GBP195, and one of an edition of 25 non-giclée but presumably mere inkjet
prints at GBP95 each. The only answer I can think of is ... GBP100
The primt itself is to be seen here:
http://www.shelleyrose.com/still_lifes/001.htm and I see that the artist is
offering a giclée print for GBP110. No doubt different from the one I saw.
My (artist) companion did not know what the term "giclée" actually meant -
that was the truly "artful" part of the work.

Oh I dunno - I'll bet Saatchi would buy it.
