Ethics is the answer. IMHO it is unethical to ask for such a ridiculously overpriced amount of money, just so some status hungry person can brag that they got a 5,000. yorkie. I like my sleep and my mirror.
I am happy to say that most people who pay that amount ($5000) are not "status hungry" and they usually hide the amount they paid, ot at least do not advertise it because it is no one's business and they do not, frankly, NEED to brag to feel good about themselves or their dog.

Just to clarify, while I have paid a "fair" price for all of my yorkies I have never paid $5,000 and I consider all of mine to be well worth what I pais and them some. I would have paid $5000 to have what I was looking for but I found her for way less. The breeder was happy and so was I.
