Hi,

I am thinking of getting an Irian Jaya Carpet, Any one know what a fair price is for a hatchie or an adult? The shop near me has a lovely 3.5 year old for £350, is this fair?

Thanks!

£350 sounds like a hell of a lot of money to me but you typically pay more in a shop and it is an adult so I am not 100%. I will have a look for averages and let you know.

Did see a CB11 for £125 but now sold, so agree with Donnie £350 sounds well over the top.

I have had a quick look at a couple if shops that I know sell carpets and I found
18 month old IJ 100% het granite £199.99 (one that marc mense has bred)
Grown on New guinea £195

So defiantly to expensive at £350.

There are a few on preloved. £75 for 18 month old. And a fair few on rfuk. Princess yoshi on rfuk has three for sale and they look great. They are £130 Three month old. Just depends how old you want yours ton be. But £350 sound a bit steep.
