pink yuma

[btb72]

Im fairly new to yumas, I had a whole colony of orange yumas but at the lfs there is a bright pink yuma. What is the going rate for these things. He is selling it for 80. Thanks

I trade orange ones to a LFS, they retail for 50 right now, 50cent piece size.

ya i meant price for the pink one. Thanks

Tried to give a reference- for example, if he's selling an orange for $80, that might be high...

Any other colors for sale there? Price?

 

[btb72]

He is selling the bright pink yuma for $80 sorry, if i am confusing.

LFS will sell it for whatever they think they can get...
The important question here is, Is it worth that much to you?

I paid $200 for mine a few weeks ago. I have absolutely no regret what so ever.

So if it looks like this one, and is $80 i would get it before its gone.

If it is a "true" pink and not a bleach red other other random color the going price is roughly $150-200. But those are for real ones make sure before you drop that much on a "faker" if he is selling it for $80 then he had it traded to him or he got a dam good deal as I have never seen a pink go for less then $100 and that was from alocal guy here that has a colony growing in his tank.

Sounds like a decent price. Rare colors go for way more then common ones. If it's worth it to you, snatch it up IMO.

For $80 on a pink yuma I would borrow the money.....If it is a true pink $80 is a steal as that is about wholesale for them.....I hope to hear you went and bought...

$80 seems like a steal.

Yea I just got one from a sponsor on here for $119 + shipping. $299 seems like an old time price. They have come down in price with most vendors. Some still charge the $200 mark but again it all depends on their wholesale price as well that they get.

If your willing to pay that for it, it is worth it, you don't want to know how much I have spent on a ricordea.....
