Re: "20,000 for a bp with an ugly pattern? Sold!"
In every market, there will always be different niches--for example, in cars, you can find used cars for $500-2000, average cars for $10,000-30,000, and higher end cars for $60,000-100,000 ---though, there are also those REALLY high end cars that sell for upwards of $250,000! Look at everything out there--boats, houses, furniture, dogs, cats, heck, even notebook paper! In every market, across the board, you can see a wide range of prices. That is completely normal--in fact, it's desireable. In owning a business, I've heard several times, from several people, that the best way to make a lot of sales is to have as wide of a variety of prices as possible, even up to the "extreme high" end. You actually tend to sell more moderately expensive "goods" if you have some other things priced very high (assuming that they are in fact worth that much). I'm not sure why it works, but I've heard that from a number of people. Maybe it's worth it to have that snake priced at $20,000--you might not sell IT, but it's entirely possible that having it up there will make people feel more comfortable buying a $5,000 snake.
And, of course, then you're also leaving yourself open to someone coming along and actually wanting to buy the $20,000 animal...In any case, the price range is a good thing. It means the market is still healthy and evolving; the time to worry is when there is no price range. I say, if people will pay it, then what's wrong with selling it at that price?
