It depends on whereabouts you are as to how much you will pay.
I can get 'bald', true hairless, rats at a lot cheaper than anyone I know where I am and they're just down the road.
These are born bald and never grow any hair. As far as I know double rex grow hair and than lose it again over a few moults. So therefore 'bald' and 'double rex' are in fact totally different genes.
Double rex are like rocky horses doodoo so I have to travel to get any. Therefore it works out expensive.
Same as anything else an item is worth whatever someone is willing to pay. I would rather pay more to buy locally than travel for a cheaper priced animal.
Good luck in seeling your rats. If I were closer I would have had some when you first advertised them. I see nothing wrong in the prices you are asking.
