Just for fun - as i see you are discussing prices on p.motoro:

I bought a small motoro, about 5 inches, for 255 dollars. Thats a normal price here in Norway.

Price for matured motoros, at the size of that one, are often actually 1000 dollars and higher if you buy it from a retailer (tough matured rays are a seldom sight). I have seen motoro for almost 1700 dollars :eek: This specimen were about 16-19 inches around the disc.

Quite a difference in prices. Norway is in general an ******* expencive country to live in, to put it like that :D
 
To ray keepers, the ray is nice but not worth that much money

To someone who does not know anything or has not done any research, they may buy it for $500-$1000

As sad as it is, we all know it happens, this is why vendors do this. Eventually they will find the right buyer.
 
remember its $ not £ bruse,but you would still get a pearl for the price of that motoro.
 
If that was a 10" female pearl ray or that quality would you guys pay that?
I'm a total noob when it comes to buying rays.
 
A 10in pearl for $500.00 would sell very quickly! At least I'd buy it immediately:naughty:. It is indeed a nice superspot but like Trev said, the spots tend to fade with age. But I think it is at least worth $250-$300. $200 for a 10in female superspot is not really giving it credit. A regular female motoro at 10in might cost $200 but then again, maybe Nic knows something I don't...:confused:

yea "superspot and triple spot" is BS name its a peruvian motoro... nothing fancy or special... its a nice one but it is that a nice regular motoro.. its not worht marble money but this is just my opinion.. if you give reason for the sellers to drive up the prices by buying into there crazy ass names then the prices will only go up...

Understandable...but in this game, we tend to pay for appearances. But you're right. The consumers either affirm or refute the prices. And some may pay what others won't. Bottom line...$500-$1000 is indeed too much!
 
I think thats a nice ray. I'd pay about $500 max. Mainly because my lfs never gets a ray in over 4". My male coming this week is the one exception.

I've heard they're about as common in Peru as saltwater rays are in the florida keys.
