I have been wondering about this,,, It seems to me that the most sought after Bounce's are listed as Original WWC Bounce Mushrooms,,, so how come I never see any listed on the WWC site,,, or I could just be missing them,,, Seems at the prices these mushrooms are being sold for,,, WWC would be selling them as fast as they can get them for sale,,,
 
That would be a question for @WWC to answer. Once other reason, maybe at the price they are sold at there are very few buyer? I saw one in there tank today and the thing was huge.
 
Because even though people are selling them quite a bit lately, they are still pretty rare overall. When is the last time you've seen one at your lfs? Not often if at all.

They sell pretty darn quickly when listed. More buyers than sellers at least for another year or 2.
 
Price seems to be coming down,,, I have seen them as low as $250 in the For Sale Section,,, they go quick though,,
 
I have been out of the selling game for a couple of years now and I was wondering how much should I post my shrooms for? I have had the momma for about 3 years (bought from wwc at rap). these are all natural babies. how much do you think I could get? The disk is about 1.5 inches.

Since they have a storefront, they may not ever make it onto the site. Also, they may have a waiting list so again never make it to the site. They do sometimes have one during their live sales.

I have no clue :) prices seem to be all over the place,,, I have seen them for as low as $250 and as high as $1,500 :) I think ,, more or less ,,, $450 seems to be the average price,,,
 
My LFS has a few different bounces.

Yeah price varies on them pretty widely.

One the size above I would say judging size based off of the egg crate is about what my LFS was selling for $300.

Its only naturally popped off one baby in 3 years or is that 2 different baby shrooms? Ive seen smaller ones go for under $500, the above prices sound about right.
 
I was in @WWC a few weeks ago and the bounce shroom they have in their display tank would make you tear up. It is about 3" across with 1/2" bubbles all over it and it eats full size shrimp.

I agree-I bought a half bounce @ 1.5" for $200-they grow fast. Hes already whole now.
Usually at an LFS Ill see them for $200-400 but online they go for $450-800 for the same small size. I dont think natural babies vs fragged and grown out babies would matter much.
 
I want one,,, have been holding off though,,, its not a must have coral for me :) all the vendors seem to have them now ,,, I have a feelin the Bonce Wars are fixing to start :) Right now as I type this,,, in the vendor section,,, one vendor has them for around $400 another has them at a $1,000 :) not sure whats up with that,,, not sure how you can ask $1,000 at the same time another quality vendor is asking less than half of what you are,,,
