I love the article on Teresa. I could not find any information on you, and @PapaFig home Orchard. I wasn't ready to read the Fig Jam cover to cover but I did take a look at all the articles. Including what look to be @Inflorescence article on Jadam. Which article was yours?
 
What are the old hot ones going for now like Labrijta, Del San JG, Cosme Manyo, CLBC, Cravens Craving, NSDC. There are some newer ones too like Santa Claus Lane, and Del Riyo, Mario's #176.

Some of these you mention aren't even really mentioned anymore.
I'd have to check prices but I'd bet some of these aren't that much.

TO vareing degress i think come jan. you will find every thing in your first sentance (group) for around $10-15 each or a box of same for donation to this forum . SANTA CLAUS LANE will stay up there for a while but still under $100 .ALTHOUGH IF I HAVE LUCK WITH THE MOTHER TREE may be offered for forum donations .

Cosme Manyo is hot now, Santa Claus Lane seems less prominent and scarce so I assume that price might actually go up. All it takes is one Ross tasting video to drive the market. I remember last summer he gave a high review to green Michurinska and everyone was looking to add it

I will say...I believe Green Michurinska had a lot to do with SubmarinePetes review.
I know that's what it was that drove me to acquire it.
Cosme Manyo has been around for a long time, I'm kind of surprised it's still up there.

The description makes it sound as a run of the mill type …”very sweet with nice floral flavor”
