Nocturnal Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Selling off a large rock covered in GSP and I'm trying to figure out a fair list price. It is almost the size of a football cut in half lengthwise. The rock itself is about a 5lb piece of reef cleaners rock. Any thoughts? GSP frags aren't worth much but you don't see big pieces like this often. Link to comment
Mr. Microscope Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Wow, that is a lot of GSP. I'd put it up for trades and see what you get offered. Link to comment
streamline.by.design Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 1" x 1" square in my area goes for $15. . . That's a lot of 1x1 squares I think you are dealing with a regional answer. I was told recently that $12 a duncan head was very high, although it normally runs $20 - 30 in my area. Link to comment
kush. Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 the rock its covering should play a role in the price as well considering good live rock goes for 8-12 bucks a pound. I got my gsp for free so i couldn't give you a price point on that... With this said, in a really large tank i think that piece would look really nice. I agree with mr. microscope, put it up for trades and see what you can get with it. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Hell, I'd buy it, that's awesome. If you feel like shipping it PM me Link to comment

SchnauzerFace Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Whoa! That's pretty sweet. I just recently bought a 2" x 11" slab of GSP from a local guy for $20. I thought that was an insanely good deal. I imagine it would take a few frags that big to cover that rock, plus you should factor in the cost of the rock itself. I know some people aren't into GSP, but I wouldn't be surprised if you could get $80-$100 from a GSP lover. Link to comment
bertyboy69 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 i personally would say around $30 20 for the rock and 10 for the gsp, most people give it away for free, since it is so large and on the rock 30 would be fair if i had that rock i would take a frag for myself and try to trade the the gsp rock for a simmilar peice of live rock with nothing on it Link to comment
patback Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Id say that piece on the side is worth 30-35. I have no clue how to price that large rock though. I agree to put it up for trade and see what you get offered. Maybe trade with a vendor, as most people with stuff worth trading probably wouldn't go for gsp, because they are snobby. Link to comment
jonny roks Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 60 would be a fair price in the ny area, its large and would be beautiful for a large reef tank. Link to comment
Nocturnal Posted March 26, 2014 Author Share Posted March 26, 2014 Hell, I'd buy it, that's awesome. If you feel like shipping it PM me Maybe. I have it on CL locally seeing what kind of bites I get. Maybe you can send me an LED fixture for my breeder in exchange. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I think that I would come out on the short end of that stick Link to comment
Psychosis Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Honestly, GSP is harder to come by now, since the hobby has "moved on. $60 would be more than fair, if you can't get it locally get it on the internet. Link to comment
xiaoxiy Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I just paid $19 for a 2x2 frag of GSP online, if that helps you at all with pricing. Link to comment
