I chose $50 but realistically I don't like to spend more than $30. Not because I'm cheep (I think), I sort of base the value of the frag on the value of the colony it came from. I'm mean, we are talking about frags here, not entire colonies.

Id pretty much hand over my first born for the right one.

Heh j/k, however, I would pay whatever amount it took to get a piece that i wanted.

Most expensive @ 100.00 for 1" (incredible hulk acro)

To me, you cannot compare it based on what it cost as a wild or cultured colony. If i spotted one that i find more valueable than my others, based on any criteria, i will price it accordingly...you certainly may not find it so, therefore theres no need to for you to buy it.

Its like hockey cards or old comics to me, none of them truly have any more value than the paper they were printed on, but something made them much more valueable, the collectors and hobbiests did.
Collecting unique or rare ones to me are a hobby all by itself.

Marc.

i'd say if it will survive for sure and was convenient to frag so i can swap it for another frag later i'd pay up to $70 tops, donno but i find for $20-$40 there are some beautiful frags such as millipora and acro's than you can grab, and nice soft corals like kenya tree and fiji leathers for the same price so with so many nice selections for $15-$50 i'm not too tempted too jump into anything too pricy..

depends on size but a frag is usually small so $50 is the number
