Prices are insane even with 25% off!

I set for years with seeds and clones are the way to go for me. I see $10-12 per seed fems photo and upwards on these popular seed seller sites. I send my money to Nevada if i ever need seeds.
 
Think big picture,

The numbers below are based on my average yield of 6-8 ounces per plant.

My seed cost now is $8.75/ seed. This adds $1.10-$1.46 per ounce to my grow cost.
At $20.00/seed my cost would increase to $ 2.50- $3.34 per ounce.
For quality genetics I wouldn't have a problem absorbing that cost per ounce increase.
My motto is "spend a nickel more and go first class."
 
Depends on who is doing the pollen chucking. I get a laugh out of these new guys selling 10 F1 beans for 200 and you can't find anyone who has heard of them. But you can buy 7 beans from sweet seeds for 45 bucks and get a few beans free. My last order from Memphisto I got a total of 6 beans for 40 bucks but if you buy from a bank 3 will cost you 45.
 
This is all very interesting to me. I generally tend to pay about $8-9 per seed, occasionally a touch more. I only order 8-10 seeds as a time and they usually come with three or four freebies. So, at $9 each plus the freebies I tend to pay about $6.25 plus shipping. If they germinate and they usually do, I can live with this pricing. I agree with Quirk, considering the value of the crop and all of the other stuff we purchase to indulge in this hobby it isn't much money. If your are growing in commercial quantities, then it can add up.

One thing I do not do is chase the latest "Strain of the Month" These are the really expensive seeds and most of the cost is due to marketing. Previous years models work just as well as new ones. The growers need to keep developing new strains in order to remain relevant in the market and to earn higher profits derived from the new product.
