A KC registered, full pedigree puppy goes for approximately $2500. This includes a puppy pack, first vaccinations and food.
If your pitbulls are not KC reg, then you cannot expect to get anything like this amount.
First, concentrate on finding a good home, where your puppies will not be used for fighting, but will be loved and cared for.

It depends on your location and how much demand for pit bulls there is. My advice will be just to cover your costs for vaccination, worming and maybe a little more to buy the parents a few treats. Charge more if you want to exclude some younger people who might not be as responsible.
Look on the internet for existing breeders who are selling also. Remember that these places will have breeder licences and pedigree certificates so they will be able to charge more than you can.
Tips for rehoming to good homes only:
1. Take the time to build a relationship with the potential buyer.
2. Introduce the buyer to the parent dog(s) a few times to see how they interact with each other.
3. Visit the buyer's home to see where the dog will be sleeping/living.
4. Don't be afraid to ask lots of questions about why they want a pitbull, if they know a good vet near their home etc.
5. Only give to experienced dog owners. Pit bulls need a steady stream of firm but fair discipline from an experienced handler. Remember these are not dogs to make mistakes with.

First I would say do a thorough check on perspective owners. ask to have references from their vet from previous animals they have had/ do have, personal references and maybe even neighbor references. Also have them give you a letter from their insurance that they can have that breed of dog because if the insurance finds out, their gonna give the dog away ( the owners) and who knows where it will end up. As for price, having a lot of money doesn't make a good owner. Hell the drug dealers that want to fight the dogs can pay more than someone who wants it for a pet! I would say it depends on if they meet your requirements. And where I live you can get a Purebred ( not AKC) because AKC does not recognize the pit) with first shots, and a health certificate for around $500 Good Luck

It depends.
Were the parents shown and do they have titles?
Were the parents OFA'd for hips and elbows?
Were the parents screened for diseases?
Are the parents even registered?
If there is a no to any of those questions, the puppies aren't worth anything as far as I'm concerned. Your big concern is that they aren't sold to someone and used for fighting instead.

It all depend if you are doing first shots, puppy pack, deworming, microchipping etc. We payed $500 for ours and she came with first shots and deworming...... But I would really make sure that the puppies are going to a good home before setting a price. Some one offered us $1500 for ours and they were going to make her a fighting dog. Please watch out for people like this. Anyways best of luck to you!

Why don't you find the right place and before selling it get it a birth certificate & anti raibis for the dog and extra charge he-he....

Absolutely nothing. Would you like to be sold by a pitbull? I never considered them to be dogs in the first place - such a pity you have bred some.
