Use as a product label? Perpetual, unlimited usage? Those are big ticket licensing issues.
Check out fotoQuote for realistic quotes based on how long he wants to license the picture, how many labels he plans to print using the picture, and other ancillary usage. You really need to nail down the details and have a proper legal contract drawn up that has all the terms spelled out. Don't look at this as selling a print, you are licensing a picture and you need to make sure that you aren't leaving money on the table by giving your picture away, or thinking that you are in a weak position.
