HermanniChris said:Hatchling Marginateds typically sell for between $125 and $175 and are usually as easy to find as Eastern & Dalmatian Hermann's, Russians and some species of Greek tortoise. Adult male Marginateds usually pop up here and there and are still affordable at between $250 and $400 each. Adult females are not something you see often and fetch high prices, usually at least $1000 and upwards of $2000 depending on size, age and overall appearance. I paid about $1,500 each for my large adult females.
