    Good price for male morphs at a show?

    I know if you have cash in hand you can negotiate with breeders at shows. Whats a good price I can talk my way down to on a male Pastel, spider, and bumblebee?

    Re: Good price for male morphs at a show?

    I just got back from a show. Male bees were going for about $350, male spiders for around $150 (though...I got a female for that price so you might can get one for $100-$125), and male pastels were about $80-$100.

    Maybe $80-90 for a pastel. I think they retail for $125
    A spider male retails about $200-225 so I'd think a fair offer is $170-$180
    And a male bumblebee is between $450-500 so I'd say $400 would be the lowest. Although I've heard some get lucky and get them for less.

    Wow, surprising. I thought you might be able to negotiate lower. I see prices on kingsnake $75+shipping pastels, $150 or less shipped spiders, and $350 shipped bees. Figured you might even be able to go lower at a show.

    someone with a super bright pastel or bee, is going to get top dollar for it. for average or slightly above average, yes money talks.
