$200 would be a great price for a healthy F7 pet. Emphasis on healthy.
My f5 SBT Diablo was $950.
He is a wonderful, loving kitty. He is a certified therapy pet. I thought $950 was a good price for a SBT savannah male, arriving up to date with his vaccines, neutered, and with a health certificate.
The breeder accidentally ended up with a litter of F4a kittens around the time we bought Diablo. She knew we were considering Adopting another cat to be Diablo's buddy, so offered us one as a companion for him (we bought him in October 2011 and he came home in November-we did not have any kitty's yet) for the cost of vaccines and spay.
We chose to just bring home Diablo at the time, but I would expect a responsible breeder to do what our breeder did- send kittens even accidental ones home up to date on shots, vet checked, and neutered. Anything else would raise a red flag for me.
I would consider asking your breeder to take the kittens in for a checkup and vaccines before they come home. That way, you have a better shot of starting with a healthy kitten. if you offer to pay for it, and the breeder still declines, then I would find another breeder.
