How much are Yuma's REALLY worth?

At my LFS i found yuma's for $20 and they are not extreamly colorful, a lot of brown, green and one blue and green. I dont know if it is worth buying them. I am considering buying two of them. They are all very large in size, bigger than an half dollar. Please let me know if you guys think its worth buying. Thanks.

i have purchased many yumas and I pay normally form 40 to about 100. But thtey are very colorfull. If they survive, they are so worth it.

Ive seen yuma from as little as 25$ (brown, uninteresting), to 50$ (fairly nice but average), to 100$ for a few stunners.

but really, i dont think you should go by what people say a coral is worth. i dont. I go by looking at a coral and how nice I PERSONALLY think it is. if i think it's worth the dough then ill take it.

for example, i think florida rics are underated but just as gorgeous as yumas... often more so. I find florida rics are more consistent with looks whereas yumas are highly variable on both sides of the spectrum. the difference is that florida rics are rarely over 25$.
