My emblemas, normal gouldians and firefinches were all about $65 a pair when I bought them from a bird place in Adelaide October 2008.

Tanunda bird sale earlier this month had
firefinches $20 for hen
white chested gouldian pair $65

I asked yesterday about a diamond and was quoted $120 pair

I went to a Finch sale in Brisbane on weekend. I noticed a few prices

Normal Gouldians were $40pr (lot ppl selling singles as well for $20)
Yellow back cocks were 40-65
Aust yellow $85 each
Cubans were around $50 a pair

Can't really remember many of rest I was only after a blue gouldian but didn't manage to find one.

I found some prices from a QFS auction I went to last year. Sorry about the hard to understand hand writing my wife was writing down sale prices after doing a 12 hour night duty at the hospital Unfortunately we didn't stay till very end so list isn't quite complete.

I can't post very big pics here so I'll include links to larger files at bottom which are bit easier to read.
