Those have been my thoughts all along...when breeders integrate black and tan into their programs, it is to bring richness in color back into the line but still with the intention of producing standard colored offspring....not at all the same, IMO.
And yes, to me $4-5K for a dog with the marketing as "rare" I just don't understand--whether it off-color, extra small or show quality standard. If the breeder is covering costs of stock, show expenses, medical testing or genetic testing, that's one thing, but just because you "can" get that much....quite another.
