Well, I understand about sex; obviously females will cost more. That's the same for any animal.

But as far as looks and all that ... I mean, some websites have all their piebalds around a certain price no matter how much white they have on them, and that price could be 5 grand (as an example). Go to another website, and the same variety of piebalds (in terms of amount of white) could be as low as $700.
