I respect your opinion though if you personally feel they should be 800 upwards.
Sorry but there would be NO way that I would charge £500 for a KC registered, fully vaccinated puppy - especially when I may have gone out and paid £500 (sometimes more) for a stud! You can't say that a puppy should be around £500! My last litter cost me: £500 stud, raising them, KC registering them, vaccinating them etc - I sold one and kept the other 2 for showing, trust me, I lost out on that litter!

All my puppies go as "pet only" whether they are show quality or not - the prices are the same, occasionally I will sell one without papers for a cheaper amount but I do think what this thread started off as was to try and point out why prices are higher.
