Is this a good price for a chin?

[riotheoleo]

I've found a breeder that breeds and sells ebony chins. The greyish-ebony ones (they aren't standard apparently some sort of ebony) are £40 ($64) and the black ebony ones are £60 ($90). Is that a "normal" price? I know some people who have bought chins from there and said shes a good breeder.

i guess it would depends on the prices in your area.

While i dont know any breeders in my area, i no local stores (horrible as they are) sell for about $150 a chin

That seems low to me but I'm not sure. All the breeders I've seen tend to sell for $100+ depending on the mutation. My mosaic was $150 and my other one was from Petco but I'm not entirely sure how much my brother paid for him then.

Just make sure you ask a lot of questions to make sure they're not a byb or anything. You'll want to purchase from someone who knows what they are doing. :]

Definitely. Most pet shops near me sell them for £100 ($161) and it seems that breeders (with quality Chins) are cheaper than pet shops hopefully preventing pet shops from selling them!

The pet shops near me are disgraceful btw so that doesnt go for all of them.
