How much would you price this palm at?

Looks like a canariensis with a Sylvesteris. I bought it this way about a year ago. I really don’t think I have a place in my yard that will fit it when it’s mature so I’d like to sell it or trade it. The pot size is roughly 20 gallon?
 

Do you think 100$ is asking too much?

Location,location,location. In Florida, common palms are grown by the tens of thousands and prices are lower than other areas because of it. I would be expecting $75 tops on that plant,down to $50 to get rid of it price...

Yeah, it's very much dependent on location, like the previous poster said. 

Personally, I wouldn't pay more than 50 eur (57 dollars) for that thing.  So easy to grow these from seed too. Doesn't make sense to pay all that much for them.

Species I'm growing from seed: Verschaffeltia splendida, Chrysalidocarpus leptocheilos, Licuala grandis, Hyophorbe verschaffeltii, Johannesteijsmannia altifrons, Bentinckia condapanna, Livistona benthamii, Licuala mattanensis 'Mapu', Beccariophoenix madagascariensis, Chrysalidocarpus decaryi.

Thanks guys! I’ll price it at like 80 and see if anyone will bite on it. I’d trade it for a foxtail or Bismarck of  smaller size. Located in palm coast north of Daytona

Your’s come with more dirt, but various date family palms that size go for $45-50 at regular local nurseries around here.   Perhaps there is a little premium for that type of hybrid.

It’s random how these things go.  Last year one of the general nurseries had a sea of hundreds of great Roebellinis in 5-20g, and probably fifty little Picasso’s paintbrush Crotons.  All for good prices.  Then by late fall, when I wanted a few Picasso’s paintbrushes, they were gone and they had like two roebellinis left.   Then they had a jillion 5-10g bottles and spindles, and 5 other types of Crotons. Huge random orders seem to come in of specific stuff, then it gets picked down fast or over 1-1.5 years.    

Normally when I’m after something specific, it’s long gone, am I’m driving all over desperate.  Perhaps yours will be in the right place at the right time.  Looks healthy.  The right person might want to snag it for the right place.

I live in N. Florida, I’d pay 40-50 bucks. They are everywhere here.

If it had a pop of silver it would demand more money.
