Females often sell for a little more than males.
I usually find the ones selling for more have the to-die-for cute little bodies and faces.
I, personally, fell in love with my little (soon to be big) Yorkie because of his very friendly behavior and one of the cutest little faces I have ever seen.
Some people just their Yorkies for more regardless of the quality of the dog.
Area also has something to do with pricing a puppy. I almost bought a Yorkie from a person who was asking $850. I was ready to make a 200 mile trip to check it out, but unfortunately someone beat me to it. She said she just looked in the newspaper to see what Yorkies were selling for in her area and that's why she was asking $850. She said hers was the first and last litter she will ever have. And, mentioned that her little female and her daughter's male were lovely little Yorkies --with no faults that she was aware of (5 and 6 pounds).
