Straw prices?
-
How does everyone price your straws? I have studs I want to offer straws from but I don't know what is considered fair pricing

Depends on their genes and paper level, but ultimately it's your choice on where you price them. :)ID# 25784 Home of quality Artylian Drafts & Cobs

I tend to only offer up straws for special occasions and when I do, they're rather cheap considering the prices I see in general. I do enjoy selling straws for public sale though and typically sit middle of the pack in terms of pricing. But I also really don't like it when the owner ends up with a snipped foal so I try to make the risk a little lighter of a loss.
Guaranteed straws I'll sell for the higher end.
Ultimately it is a combination of pull price, genetics and the desire for them, quality, paper status, if even or uneven, and then tack on a bit of profit of course. Lol!ID# 24891

I have a big stable with a greater concern for keeping my bank account below the 10 million Hajibuck limit than for making a profit, so I generally charge only the pulling price of 500 hbs. If I'm selling guaranteed straws, the price will be higher, and the additional straws will cost 1 hb.De gustibus non disputandum. "There's no arguing about tastes."
