Yea it's ridiculous people vote mine down all the time even tho I paid more then I'm asking..ill buy him for 15k

Just having satin doesn't make a horse valuable. It has to be well bred as well. Horses who are bred backward (worse than their parents) are considered badly bred. If you put him back up for 7500 I will gladly buy him and sell him back to the game for you so you get some money back. :)

I am glad I was able to get you some of your money back, though I am sorry you had this confusing and frustrating experience.

I think that voting down horses that are priced too high is a serious 'responsibility' of the community!

If we don't then the economy of the game goes SERIOUSLY wacko, and no one could afford any decent quality horses. That was one of the reasons I didn't like HJ1 WAY back when I first started (in 2008? 2009?). Gold papered mares were in the 2-300,000 range, and forget getting a breeding to a nice stallion. Just the BREEDING fees were several hundred thousand. Now, it may be that, as a newbie, I was just looking in the wrong places, and I know Ammit has tweaked the economics several times since then, but that was how it felt at the time. That's a big part of why I became so involved with Shoco/WHG, it was new, and the economy was decent for a long time. It finally went to crap too, so I make a point of checking out the sales boards now, specifically to vote down unreasonably priced horses.

I am a teensy bit concerned t how far the RS horses prices fluctuate. But I don't feel confident enough to offer any ideas about it.

I was willing to pay 15k but ok

Thanks for all the comments guys this really did help with the confusion

A low generation sasa horse of exceptional quality (read additional rare genes and boosted) might be worth 200k, but no top breeder is selling uneven sasa horses for 200k. Those are people who don't know better, not good breeders.

No one said Satin was cheap. Just that it's accessible. I would never pay 200k for a homozygous satin horse unless it was something pretty darn special. Real money is not equal to game money. Just because I spent $200 on a gene, doesn't make the horse worth a ton of money.
