I think that alot has to do with where you live. I have noticed that Yorkies are waaaaaaaaaay more expensive in California than Arkansas. The economy in that area dictates the price of most things.
On another note, buying from reputable, experienced breeders/exhibitors might be, but not always, be a little more pricey but, in my opinion, you get what you pay for. You will be buying a puppy that is far more superior in quality and health than a back yard breeder or someone just out to make a $$.
I have noticed that the Yorkies advertised in the AZ republic have come down in price due to the economy. They were once going for about 1200 to 1500 and now are going for around 600 to 900. Most of these people are byb'rs and not reputable. |
