Pricing help (More opinions requested, please)
-
My favorite stallion, Star Lord, is going to be old enough to breed next month. I've been repeatedly talking myself into and out of offering straws from him for one month only, but I have no idea how to price them. What would you guys say is fair?
He's B-papered, and his genetics are:

(I might also give him a dose or two of DP, if I can scratch together enough hb in time)

I don't know about other people but I'd buy a straw or 5 from him for 10k. Even a guaranteed at 15k I'd do.Producer of Volcanic Glass Drafts. Lapisobsidianus.

Giving this a friendly bump for more opinions, so I have a range to base the price on. :) Thanks in advance!ID: 45055

Beautiful horse :)
I would think it unlikely you would get much more than 10k per straw. If you had hom DP on too you might get a little more. However, from what I have seen people tend to pay a lot for straws from genes they can't get themselves but are not restricted ie. Nexus, Ice, Snowflake. Those that can be GMT'd on even though rare are possible for others to get hold of. Someone has a hom Pearl/het sabino conversation hearts up for public brood for a lot less than 10k.
I would suggest 10k (or less) :)
It is just an opinion though, feel free to ignore it :)Thanked by 1Ragtatter -
But, I wouldn't have thought a black liver foundation mare would go for over 550k - what do I know :D
-
Lol dinachill I was watching that thinking where’s the popcorn? this is like tennis!
Definitely people will pay whatever they want If the horse has genes/traits that are desirable to their program.
Personally I’d probably offer 5-10 straws in an auction and price extras at an average price from the auction -
Wow, that must have been some mare. XD
The auction suggestion is a really good idea. :)ID: 45055

If you do I'm certainly going to get at least 1. I haven't been able to save up the gmts for a w8 foundation which is why I'd pay 15k for a straw. The hom pearl would just be a fall back in case the foal got the SB1, and it's be put into my pearl line.Producer of Volcanic Glass Drafts. Lapisobsidianus.

He's actually got w8w2, not sb1. :)ID: 45055

Forum auction a lot of times seems to be the best route especially if you are unsure of the value of the strawsGod grant me the hbs to buy the ponies I need,
The fortitude to resist the shiny ones I truly don't,
And the wisdom to know there will always be more next time.

Right, my bad xD I knew it was something that I don't mind in my lines but don't really breed for. Toss of a coin between those two lolProducer of Volcanic Glass Drafts. Lapisobsidianus.

What ever you decide - he is a stunner :)

Pricing is hard - I wasn't sure how to price my 2 hom satin boys. I have too many colts so don't need them but they are very slightly uneven - but as even as i could make them because I made all my pairings pass sba so i needed even to ensure not too many alters. It's hard but it's good that there is some interest in them. I never quite know what to expect. I also am not out to make loads of money but to enjoy the game making pretty ponies and sharing some pretty ones with others.
Don't get me wrong though I still want barns full of gold mares :D
