Saw up close today a pair of Jacarini , the male was fully coloured , so nice he was so black he was metallic blue . $90 pair and 10% off that sale .
No I didnt buy them but I cant stop thinking about them ... trying to leave the savings alone so we can add to the insurance money and get a newer model commodore ....bloody tempting . :x

So is $90 the average price for them ? I thought they would have been dearer.

I sold a number of Jacarinis last weekend for $50 p/p and hens for $30ea.
This is $10 a pair more than I normally sell them for.
The only reason was a guy near by(Ballarat sale) had $60 on his but I went half way as $50 to me is top $
At $40 from someones backyard is what I think they should be.
I have been selling Cordons for $60 and thinking that was top $ only to see them selling for $80 to $100 and hens $70 each.
They were selling quickly at that cost. I guess supply and demand. I have still sold them locally for $60
