In other words for a $1K tour the psd files being given isn't such an issue...but as others have stated a bunch of $20-$30 galleries do you think that's another issue?

Should the psd be given up?
For cheap galleries, no.

There are some people that know what they are doing and can purchase one gallery, without getting the psd, and make multiple styles out of the graphics anyhow.

And at the same time there are newbies and even newbie designers who have some idea that they can buy one $20 gallery and get the psd and learn from there, or make a whole damn tour out of it. Sorry, not gonna happen.

But for logos and site designs where there might be changes, sure they probably need the psd. Then again there are some designers who stick around and are open to doing edits as well for the clients.

A good site design should be structured for updates anyhow, to where the psd will not really be needed unless there are major alterations, or maybe model specific graphics.

Case by case is the best way to make this decision.
