$525 jardini ?!?!?!

Yeah, its a private business, and I support his right to ask whatever he wants.
However, for my personal choice to buy from him, I like to know if his asking price is "reasonable" compared to similar situations/locations.

Thanks so much for the replies folks.

Any examples of what these fish are going for in your areas?

Well my buddy tried selling this 22" one for $150 and there was no interest. He ended up keeping it.

No idea about sturgeons, but the jardini is outrageously overpriced. The motoro and indo dats are overpriced as well.

agree ive seen sturgeon about 6-7" for about $25 but maybe its more uncommon near you

Man whatever fish store is selling fish at these prices are balling cuz these are some major rip off pieces...

jardini that size is 200 at my LFS. But I go to every LFS in my area often.....and their is about 4 jardini that size for sale in the area.

I would only pay that much if it is a black or red/orange jardini.
One of my lfs that went out of business use to have an orange jardini.
It was about 16 inches and only going for $150.00!!
It was beauttiful, orange with red-orange pearls.
You have to see it to believe it!
Whoever owns it now is a very lucky person.

At the LFS I work at, we can order 6" Jardinis, but they would have to sell at close to 300 each. They cost us like 3x the amount they used to.
