SilverBlade86 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Just wondering. Seems to me alot of people are wanting me to sell them cheaper on TM. Edit - Sorry if its in the wrong forum. I didn't know where to put it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumzy50 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I think thats a fair price.But if you have heaps and they will go down again soon and you want to clear tank space.I would sell cheaper to people that will buy more than one.

Deno Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I'd happily pay $3 for kribs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBlade86 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Thanks for that. I feel a lot better now. I personally thought it was a fair price, considering I paid around $4 or $5 for one when I started. But everyone seemed to be wanting it to be cheaper, but meh. Now if I had known Kribs could be sold for $3 each, I would have saved the last 4 batches from the other fish in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitzy Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I seen people on tm sell them for $5 which i think is not a bad price but then if you have heaps and dont want to be waiting for them to sell then $3 is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBlade86 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Well it's not that I have heaps of them. I just need to clear some room temporarily so that the newer batches of Kribs will have no elder siblings eating them. Anyways a guy must have also thought that it was a fair enough price, so alls well. Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasi Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Price is usually determined by demand. Same as anything, if its plentiful, then price cheap. As goes with angels i saw selling in auckland for 3 bucks each, some might say thats normal, but here in Wanganui they sell in the shops for over 10 bucks.Not as many around.

Dixon1990 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I dont think there is much of a demand in CHCH for Kribs at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBlade86 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Actually, there seemed to be quite a few people keen on them. I had over 10 watchers and maybe 100 views, so thats not too bad. Try putting them on TM. You have nothing to lose and so much (well relatively) to gain.

kd123 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Ive never been able to give them away let alone sell them..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBlade86 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Shhhhhhhh! Maybe all of us in Chch could pool together and monopolize the market on Kribs. Sell them all at 1 dollar reserve and 3 bucks buy now. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new zealand discus man Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Dont forget when selling on trade me there are fees to pay and set up costs as well..Many dont sell to much as just have as collect..Miss all the rest of nz so pays to be able to courier.

Cheesejawa Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Thats a great price for where I come from and I would say thats cheap compared to any petshop. But I guess you could get them that cheap from breeders. Even from them it would be a could price, If you want them go and get them. Theres seems to be a surplus of kribs at the moment so that would explain the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supasi Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 What amazes me is that Guppies in my area are all at least $5 each Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenriswolf Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Ha, our guppies are $8 and while it seems wrong we're basically making nothing on it. Sucks :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
