Yes. I sold my pastels for higher than market price this year. I have a few more that I haven't put up for sale yet, because they're not ready to go yet.
I know that my pastels are higher quality, and I just have to find the buyer that appreciates and is willing to pay more for higher quality animals. I sold three to one buyer at higher than market price. And he told me after we made our deal he would have paid more if I'd asked more for them - and he'd been looking for three years to find pastels that met his high standard. I had them, he bought them.
I'm also a buyer that pays more than market for stellar examples of a morph. Quality begets quality. I just picked up a Fire female who was more than any other fire female at the show. But she was also the nicest example at the show, and I wanted her, so I paid what the seller was asking. I recognized that she was far nicer than any other fire at that show.
