Welcome to Yorkie Talk

I'd say generally Yorkies can range between 800-1400 dollar (MOST...if you are going to breed or are purchasing for show quality, they will be more)

Females are usually more expensive than males. If a yorkie is goign to be over standard in weight (over 7 lbs) they are usually cheaper and if they are going to be very small they are usually more expensive. This is fine as long as the breeder is not advertising their small yorkie as a teacup. A breeder who is going to sell you a smaller yorkie and charge a higher price should tell you are they are doing this because there is a higher chance this small dog will need future medical care than a dog that is 5-7 lbs and I think (i'm not a breeder) that they are charging more to ensure the small dog is goign to a house that can care for the dog financially.

Dogs also range in price depending on what state you are in or if there are a lot of breeders around you.
