How Much would you pay?

[chazthaking2]

Normal?
High Yellow?
Hypomelanistic?
Jungle?
Super Snow het RADAR?
AND SO ON IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHERS YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD, AND WHY WOULD YOU PAY THAT PRICE?

Without seeing them I cannot say... It all depends on the quality of the gecko and the breeder's reputation... If you're trying to get a general sense of a certain morph's ''market value'' check out the classifieds here and on kingsnake...

no I mean like what is the highest in a since that you yourself would pay for like a high yellow, we all know how much we would pay for a certain morph I just want to hear what the people say and see what they think.

let me begin so people can get a good understanding on what this thread is asking.
for a high yellow i would say the highest price that i would pay for one is $100 for a nice yellow especially

Personally I dont deal with too many shops and stuff like that so I dont know what those prices are like. I wouldnt really pay over 100 for normals, high yellow, or hypos. Its the combo morphs that go for the higher bucks. I have mainly bought my leos at reptile shows from big name breeders. The SS het radar sound like it would go for about $300? At the show I went to over springbreak I paid $235 for a Tremper enigma het Raptor so I guess it really depends on the morph you like and what you feel is worth the money.

definitely believe that, i have a wide range of prices i have paid for geckos $600 being the most at the moment for an enigma het bell blizzard but was it worth it we will soon find out when those eggs hatch

As Michael said, it would depend upon the quality (heavily subjective matter to a large, if not absolute, degree). I won't put a price cap specifically, as it depends upon the specific animal and where my interests lie (showpiece/pet, novel curiosity project, typical project breeder, estimated profit potential if a breeder). Most of the serious breeders would and have paid much more than I have for various geckos and most of the folks who just want to have any leopard gecko at all have paid much less.

spoken by a true senior member, i guess i was trying to find the supply and demand of certain morphs, in economics they say the market sets the price being that of the consumer but i guess its a hard question to answer
