Everything with a client should be up front. What would you tell them if you gave them the site, and then they realized that you used a template?

A big consideration would be *why* you are using a theme forest theme for a client.

If you can’t make a compelling argument for charging the amount that you’re charging for a pre-made theme, then you probably shouldn’t do it.

I’ve used a pre-made theme once, but that was after the client saw my quote for a custom site, and decided they couldn’t afford it, so I pitched the pre-made thing to them and charged them accordingly.
