I think a HUGE thing you have to ask yourself is "what can I produce myself"? If you have some black pastels, why not stud service a male pastel? It shouldn't be hard to find. Or, for $100, just get one yourself. I think a pewter would be worth producing rather than buying. Personally, I think the double-doms are over-priced. I can justify spending $2k on a piebald because I simply can't produce one. Am I gonna spend $1500 on a bee? No way, I've got pastels and spiders myself.

Now, a lesser, that you can't pull out of thin air so it would seem more logical to buy that.
