Help pricing a kitty. - Keerla Resident - 03-10-2014 11:17 AM
Hello everyone, just wondering how to fairly price a kitty. I know that it is only an estimate as there are many factors that can affect the "worth", in a sense, of a kitty, but I'm looking for a ballpark value.
I've tried asking around but have gotten drastically different numbers,
($15k which seems way too high and under $1k, to me seems a bit low) so thought I would ask here, because I want to be fair when pricing. Don't really sell many cats at all, so your help and opinions are very appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Keerla, it's up to you, hun. Why don't you try bid boards or auctions? Set up a minimum price you're confortable with and let people bid.

agreed. i have tried all sorts of pricing in my shop and things rarely sell from there. I'm usually not disapointed in the bid boards or auctions though. If you set a price that you think might be too low, and you can get people bidding on it, you can at least sell the cat.
if you have a 50K L cat, even if it is worh that, and no one ever buys it, it is financially the same as if you have a 200L cat that no one ever buys.

I agree with the others. The most important thing when pricing cats are 'what do I feel is fair for this cat?' and bidboards are great if you honestly and really don't know.
