A guy in town offered 100.00 for this Aussie gold torch. Is that a fair price on both sides or should I charge more or less? It’s two heads and gets pretty large. No shipping he is coming over to pick up if I sell. I am going to get another small one and grow it out. That’s what I gotta do if you have a small tank and like lots of different corals. Grow em up and send them into the world.

Just a quick Google search seems to round up $250-$400ish(WWC pricing) for a 2 head

$125 a head seems to be the norm as mentioned above
 
Hello,

Honestly, that’s kinda hard question because everyone has different values on their coral. I think it’s a gorgeous piece and would probably keep it. But here where im at I have seen them between 80-150. But if that’s the true Aussie I have seen them online for the prices mentioned above, and locally have seen them about 75 per head to 100 per head.
 
Thanks guys that really helps. Makes me want to keep it, I might be able to move some stuff to make room. I love having a place that we can share and get help from one another. More places like this could learn a thing or two

Yea I've never seen one quite like it with the even purple and golden hue
Beautiful torch.
 
Or you could just sell 1 head and keep the other and grow it out :)
 
They are 300 a head here in CA. I’ve wanted one for so long it’s just to expensive
 
$100 for that would be the, "hey, we're both just casual reefing buddies, cut me a deal" price. At an LFS I would expect to see somewhere between $150-$250 for one like that with multiple heads. Possibly more in some areas.
 
Thats a steal, should be $200. I say cut it and sell a head and keep a head to grow out
 
online 1 head is going for $250 I would not sell it for that price I think 175 a head would be fair. in all reality I would not sell it I would grow it and frag it here and there the golds always go for more
 
Looks like an aussie torch to me. I have one very similar I got from WWC. I wouldnt let it go, I would cut it and sell a head for $100 min.
 
I would say sell it at the price that it will cost you to get the new smaller one you want. That way it seems like an even deal.
