I will take a look thank you :)
So for an 800-1000pt horse that doesn't show, would 4k be reasonable?
And for a 600+ and showable horse, would 8k be reasonable?
Just to get an idea before I look, thanks

Hence forth why I'm asking what prices are reasonable to offer for both point gathering and sitting duck show horses. If not leveled ones, then young high PT horses that can be trained and shown. It's not that my idea of showing is flawed, it's that I prefer show horses

Hm, okay so sitting duck point horses are far to expensive for far too slow of a return (though that's my opinion). Do you have, then, any young show horses or blue mares still in training you'd consider 5/6k for ?

No, your idea of this entire game is flawed. This isn't a fast paced, get rich quick kind of game. It takes time, patience, perseverance, and a long term plan. The auction runs 3 times a week, keep scouring for horses that have some points, and are still earning them. Sort by points this year, bid on a few. Sort by all time points, bid on a few more. Every auction. You'll find it will begin to pay off, but don't expect miracles over night.

You'll also sometimes find those rare gems - higher PT foals, or whatever your particular unicorn is at the time. I used to look at every single horse in every auction. Every horse. We're talking thousands. And I'd find gems. Because pasture foals end up in there, and sometimes people just don't have the time to look themselves, and dump a whole season's foals. But to reap these rewards, you'll have to put in the leg work.

For a spayed mare of this quality, you'd be exactly right. I would say approximately 25k based solely on points. But I'm math minded and that value is easy to figure out because there are no other factors to take into account.

However, besides having 1350 points, this mare is intact, blue papered, and carries S+, which isn't a cheap gene. I don't often buy or sell breeding stock so don't know current market value of a blue S+ third gen mare.
