I’m looking to sell a Dragon Soul Torch, currently 8 heads, but I don’t know what pricing looks like these days. What are these things typically going for per head?
My LFS says he will take it off my hands for $300 and I’d be lucky to get more than that

I’m not into the torch craze but seems most torches are going for at least $70-$100 per head at least

If true dragon soul then he will chop it up and sell for at least $200 per head, so I would expect to get $800 at least from him.

I know I would pay $800 for an 8 head dragon soul and so would many others here.

It depends where you are located and what the hobby is like around you. Dragon Soul torches can go anywhere from $150-$300 per head, considering all variables. So you should be able to get way more than $300.

Yep that seems way to low. I'm not big into torches, but offering $35 head is not enough. I'd try to get closer to $150 a head for a dragon soul.

I just paid 280 for 2 heads from r2r online sale. You do the math

The dragon soul variant has come down in price quite a bit. 250 to 300 a head is over retail at boutique stores.
$250-$300 is an accurate statement:

That's retail pricing and leaves no meat on the bone.
I wasn't specifically referring to selling it to a store owner at that price, I realize they wouldn't pay that for it. But $150 a head seems like a reasonable price to other hobbyists. I just Google it and online from coral websites and not hobbyists they seem to be selling for $200-$400 per head. Something close to $150 per head selling as a hobbyists to another hobbyist doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

Sorry for the late reply, I have a good photo I will send, give me a few minutes here, I’m located in Los Angeles
Oh you are definitely getting $150 per head in LA if you chop up and sell individually. Sell them all together and I think $800 is the price point. Wish I was in town....

Put it on craigslist and find out in a couple days.
