Price Range

[Eternal_Rain]

Hey guys - I'll be going to a rep show this coming Saturday, and was wondering the general prices I should expect on leos. Please tell me some common prices, males, females, juvies, etc.

Thank you so much.

Well, it depends on witch morph you are looking for

 

[Eternal_Rain]

Would it be possible for you to tell me some of the commonly seen morphs & their prices? I know nothing about morphs -

Thanks!

 

[mmsi1002]

There's a poll on favorite morphs, you can see most of the morphs on there. Price ranges at shows are pretty much $15-$2000 & pretty much everywhere in between. Most of the good ones are $50-$500.

 

[Leopardbreeder]

They can go from $10-$3k. Common show geckos like mack snows and blizzards are in the $50 range.

 

[malt_geckos]

Common morphs-

Normal and High Yellows- $15-35
Tangerines- $40 and up
Patternless-same
Albinos- same

Those are what we've seen

 

[Eternal_Rain]

Thank you all for the quick reply! Are females generally much higher in price?

 

[805GECKOS]

10 WOW THATS CHEAP THATS GOT TO BE FOR NORMALS RIGHT DO ANY OF YOU GUYS KNOW OF ANY BREEDERS THAT HAVE GECKOS FOR 10 DOLLARS NORMALS OF COURSE IM INTERSTED IN GETTING A GROUP OF THEM FEMALES TO BREED SOME PROJECTS WITH THANKS

Please don't use caps it gives me a headache when I look at it. Also it looks like your yelling it lol. Thanks

 

[Leopardbreeder]

Really! Please stop the caps! They are not normals, they are trempers and some of the more common cheaper strains. Dont buy them because they are cheap. I am asking again, please stop the caps.

 

[malt_geckos]

If you go to shows, some people have normals for 10 bucks on the last day. They are usually just babies though. We bought our high yellow female for 25, so that's not bad either. But you shouldn't buy the cheap ones just because they're cheap. Pick out ones you like, and save the money to get them.

 

[Leopardbreeder]

I can get tremper sub-adults at $10 each

 

[Eternal_Rain]

Re post: Are females generally cheaper, or the same prices as males?

Thanks!

 

[yellermelon]

generally same price.

 

[LadyGecko]

It just depends on who is selling them

The more available morphs-usually the males and females are priced about the same

The higher end morphs-it depends on who has what and what they are willing to let go of

If you go to a show near the end of it and you are lucky to find what you are looking for-then you can get a "deal"
If you go at the very start of the show-prices might not be negotiated

Not everyone works that way-some people will discount for multiple purchases but it makes sense not to drop the price on your geckos when you have a crowd at your table looking at them-lol

I have always been able to find fantastic deals on beautiful geckos

Gecko people are GREAT !!

The list that was already posted pretty much summed up most of the now commonly available morphs pricing



I hope that this has helped you out a bit

Thank you! LadyGecko, ever go to the All Reptile Expo in Wheaton?

You are very welcome
Unfortunately I do not drive and I am about 90 miles south of Chicago right now so that would be a long drive for my bf to take me and he is not "into reptiles"
I am lucky that he takes me to Tinley

It's probably a good thing that I do not drive as I have managed to accumulate over 40 Leos and various other reptiles just from mainly buying online

LOL

[Eternal_Rain]

Ah, gotcha. I totally understand. It would probably be for the better that I didn't drive, too. However, i'm new to reptiles.

Thank you again for your help.

 

[LadyGecko]

You are so very welcome and I hope that you have lots of fun at the show!!

I hope that you find some great Geckos too!

I don't know if you are looking for pets or what, but usually there are people looking to retire breeders or find homes for guys with tail-kinks, etc. and then you can get an older gecko for very little money. I was tempted at the last show I went to by a cute little gecko with a tail kink and a couple older gals... but I have enough disabled pets already.
