You can get a female pied delivered to your door for $4K now.
The prices have dropped significantly. Pastels and spiders have also dropped significantly. You can get a male pastel to your door for $500 or a spider for $2500.
The only ones really commanding the higher prices now ($15K-$50K) are the lesser plattys, leucistic, ivory, bumblebee, pinstripe, red axanthic, and genetic stripes.
Even albinos have dropped to under $2K delivered.
Don't always go by what the breeders post as prices. Cash in hand lately gets large discounts.
On a side note, I just added 6 of these little guys to my collection today. Not bad for a buck each.
