Just how large is it? I wouldn't pay that much unless it was at least two and a half inches long and very healthy. Otherwise, it's just too much money. Smaller boesemanis can go for less than seven dollars a pop.

I think its a good price.
Here I paid 17.99 CAD, or about 15 USD for a 1.5 inch
Boesmani. They run between 16.99-24.99 in fish stores here

That is a decent average price for the US. Actually, around my area, they go much higher at 2 inches. Once they start coloring up, the price jumps from a couple bucks, to about that price. At 5 inches, pairs and/or trios go from $30-$50.

i am importing some fish soon, and boesemans will be on the list. i think i should get them small, and cheap, and wait for them to grow up.

Geez, my area must have some good prices then. One to one and a half inch boesemanis are $6-$7 here, and there are some really nice two inchers that are $21.99 a pair.

Hey Marc, they grow five inches long? That's way bigger than I thought they got.
