So I missed reefapalooza this year, I had thought about bringing my bounce mushroom to sell now that it's all grown up and I see it would have been worth making the trip because one sold for 6 thousand making it the most expensive single polyp sold !!!!! Here is a link to an article written about it http://reefbuilders.com/2015/10/13/bounce-mushroom-sells-record-6000-single-polyp/

Mine is around the same size but as far as I can tell is the only one that has 2 mouths on one mushroom making it grow faster than others and I don't even know what else it can do lol anyone know any more about these mushrooms please share

Usually when a shroom has two mouths it is preparing to split.
He said it's been like that since it was small.
Wait. .. wouldn't it be $12,000 since it's a double?
I guess you can price it anyway you want if it's the only one! Lol normally if I have something that's double sized or whatever I add 50% to the normal price.
Then again I'm normally adding $15 to $30. Not thousands [emoji38]

Just my opinion but I'd sell it while the selling is good. The more they multiply the cheaper they'll get.
Some knuckle head like me will get a couple and keep selling frags of them for half price, because I hate charging people retail prices! Believe me I wish I wasn't like that. Lol not really but.... [emoji38]

Not sure that is the record. I believe one sold for $7k earlier this year though that wasn't at a show/swap.

I also keep hearing that prices will go down soon. It has been around for what 2 to 3 years now and the price has actually gone up.

Thats what I was thinking. I remember the first few of them, and if I recall, they were expensive but affordable(4-600).

So my sisters cousins brother ask me of offer $20.00 usd. Look this is a right time right place sale. If you are looking on cashing in a the bounce bubble then bring it to a show and someone might take it seriously. Other wise quite trying to cash in.
