    Just to disagree, but if someone feels their animal is worth a set amount, then you have the option of not buying it. As a seller I don't like being told my animals are too expensive.

    Every year I try to price my animals at market value, and every year I get dozens of low ball offers with people telling me "oh, I saw one for X amount cheaper than yours" and I politely tell them that I price my animals for what I think they're worth and if they feel its too much then they can buy from whatever breeder they saw that price.

    Point is, if someone prices it more than you want to pay, then feel free to make an offer, but don't get mad when they feel its worth more and decline your offer. It's their right as a breeder to price them however they want and yours a buyer to look elsewhere or not to buy.

    (Note: not saying you lowballed the guy or anything like that. Just sharing my perspective as a seller)
