Help me perfect a pup pricing formula!

@Malachai Morrow and @Saffy I've had a lot of luck using this formula myself, and I can say that other members of the Merchants Guild (which @Starling is totally right about joining!) who are much pickier than myself about what pups they keep vs sell vs chase have found this formula helps to move their pups within a few days of being listed.

I’ll happily check out the merchants guild if you have a link?

if It helps me get something more than 1sc for my pups that would be nice (seeing as I have many I need to be rid of).  It’s worth looking into.   I’m just skeptical by nature.  (And as I said, haven’t even been able to get 20sc for my pups)

@Malachai Morrow here you go! 

Thank you. :)

I don't know much about pricing formulas, but I came up with a formula for figuring out how valuable a wolf is based on markings and tiers. 

Tier Number * ((tier 0 markings *0)+(tier 1 markings *1)+(tier 6 markings *6)+(tier 7 markings *7)+(tier 8 markings *8))= value score. If the wolf is a carrier of anything, just add like 15 points to the score.

Just from what I've seen in the markets, inbred carriers of melanism seem to be going for like 10 gc, and 15-20 gc for NIB. Tier 2 pups seem to be worth like 5gc as a base value. If it has melanism, then like 30gc for IB and occasionally for cheap NIB ones. The shorter the lines, the more valuable. Although idk if you're wondering about mutation pricing.

I have a spreadsheet of all my wolves with a page set aside for their markings, if you wanna look at it for inspiration for a system docs.google.com 

Idk about albinism.

@Jo Ann I cant even get my teir 2s to sell for 2gc, how are yall doing it?

Waiting. Lots and lots of waiting. 

As a disclaimer though, my memory is pretty trash, and I may very well have remembered the number I tried selling them at and failed, before changing it somewhat lower. XD

Yep. I was right about my memory. I've been selling them at 2gc, not 5.

Melanism seems to be more valuable than albinism, for some reason. Not sure why, considering it’s just a black wolf
