    Female pastels with size seem to be going for about 50 cents a gram. So $400ish on the female pasel.

    I have seen proven breeder male spiders priced at about $250ish.

    Pastels are VERY dependent on color. A really spectacular, clean yellow color at that size could easily ring in at $500 or 750 or even upwards for a female. And I might happily pay it if she really looks good, especially if I could see her in person to confirm it. But most pastels will have browned out at that size.

    For a sub-adult normal girl I wouldn't pay more than $200. Spiders I really don't know--I don't pay close attention. But a young breeder boy shouldn't be worth THAT much more than a nice hatchling.

    I agree with 50 cents a gram for pastel female on average

    id say the average price for a proven normal female is around 100 bucks, unless she got something special. so for a 700 gram girl? 50 bucks

    spider male id say 250-400 if hes proven, depending on looks obviously.
