No I do not work for Planet Fish.

And I apologize for using crude labels.

Further though, I do not like seeing people complain about prices on things that I can undertandably see why they cost what they cost and that what other people think it should cost. In my eyes if I see that someone is putting extra effort into accomplishing something then by all means that person deserves what they're charging, provided its within reason. I look at it again now though, perhaps maybe ORA is charging too much. Granted the only difference is color, perhaps rarity of the variety as a whole attributes to higher cost.

As far as the pricing, I feel I'm a fair person and realize that not all stores are out to make a quick buck but work hard for what they earn in terms of service, quality and so forth etc. I guess what Im trying to say Id rather see sales in a store who give a damn about their customers opposed to the ones who sell to rip people off.

For what the fish is worth, I respect that. But then again, just because you may think something is worth X, does not mean that it is. I may think my car is worth 10K but the actual value may be lower. As you said it is a matter of opinion, but it is just that, an opinion.

I think I've strayed way off topic and will close this conv on my end here.

I think your final post cleared things up a bit. I really wasn't complaining about the price in the first post I just said anything above $25 to much for me to spend as someone who is in the market for one now and then gave a bunch of back ground on blk ocellaris. In no way was the info supposed to justify the price I was willing to pay. You failed to figure in price elasticity in your post and the lack of increased demand for black Ocellaris over orange which is a major factor in pricing. I understand your concern over people moaning about price and hope you don't have any hard feelings over anything I have said.

No hard feelings at all man. 8)

Just felt it was something I needed to address but was probably too emotional in it.

Glad we both come to a compromise.
