Well, its really a rare clone so price is high but still kinda alright if you ask me. I´ve seen pics of it on botanic art but never came across it so its not around that often. Variegated Lophs can cost 150 US Dollar or more btw. bye Eg

EDIT: OH WAIT, AUCTION IS ONLY ABOUT THE PUP? NO THATS TOO EXY. THOUGHT HE´D AUCTIONED THE MOTHERPLANT.

I guess some things are as valuable as someone else will pay. Its definitely steep, but in saying that I think I would probably pay 20 dollars for a pup.

While it's expensive, I think its fair enough. If people want to spend money on cactus they can.

It's a real nice looking clone too in my opinion :blush: I love my tbm. Pics of the massive tbm's in pots that you posted EG were epic :o

No the pics in the gallery are part of the californian Nursery Sacred Succulents. Very cool Nursery. The Pics from the variegated TBM i posted before are from the seller who sold the plant on ebay

I have one ;) Check out my bit's garden video to catch a glimpse

I can't remember how much I paid for it - definitely less than $50 though. When I got it it was only slightly yellowish, I wasn't sure if it was variegated. I need to try grafting a pup - it's extremely slow growing.

I was watching that auction too. I've always wanted a varigated tbm and had I not forgotten about the auction I probably would have paid the ridiculous price :-P

Can't help loving the freaks :lol:

Cheers man, if you're talking about the other yellow one, it's a Bridgsii variegata though, not a peru. I haven't seen var. Peru in NZ :)
