Welcome to the forum. I know you are new, but it is a good idea to look through the rules at the beginning of each forum before posting. For instance, you would find this in the rules for this one: "We do not allow threads begging for free puppies or looking for puppies at extreme reduced costs.
Yorkies are generally from $500 on up, with most being in the $1000 to $1500 range. Please do not post looking for Yorkies below $500. If your budget for a Yorkie does not allow for $500 or more, you may want to look into Yorkie rescues or adoptions of older Yorkies, as they may be better suited to your price range. Feel free to PM sellers with an offer, but the public forum is not a place to beg or whine for a Yorkie, nor post looking for a Yorkie under $500."
Not saying you are begging or anything but wanted to point out the part I underlined. It is not right to come on a for sale thread (even an old one) and tell them their pups are expensive -- especially when they are well within reasonable range. A good quality yorkie often goes for well over $1000 -- I paid $1500 for mine which is the going rate in this area for a well-bred yorkie. There are poorly bred yorkies available for $600. But you wind up paying more in the long run when the vet bills start adding up.
Not a major faux pas but just something to keep in mind as you continue looking for the pup that is right for you. Also remember the actual cost of the pup is only a small percentage of what it will cost when you add in all of the requirements, food, vet bills, toys, pens, kennel, beds, blankets, etc, etc,,,
