First of all, they are probably worthless BUT I would still like someone to help me with this and explain to me how to get an estimate of the price.
This is where all my lions from Special or Rare bases will end up, perhaps some with more than four marks.
PS: In the images they will all have the opacity (100%)


Information: Flint (Black Medium Solid Rare), 5 visible Marks + 1 Hide mark.



Information: Haunted (Red Dark Countershaded Special), 3 visible marks, male



Information: Cassis 01 (Red Dark Countershaded Rare), 3 visible marks



Information: Cassis 02 (Red Dark Countershaded Rare), 4 visible marks.



Information: Cassis 03 (Red Dark Countershaded Rare), 7 visible marks.



Information: Prune (Red Dark Countershaded Rare), 6 visible marks, male.



Information: Acacia (Red Dark Solid Rare), 4 visible marks, male, 1 rosette.



Information: Fiery (Red Light Countershaded Rare), 5 visible marks + 1 hide mark.


Thank you in advance for your help!

i can't price your individual lions but i can offer some advice based on my own experience !

rare bases by themselves are not really valuable and generally sell as fodder, unless you have a BO (breed only) base on a special lion, like a mutant or hybrid. special bases can sell for a little more, depending on the base - always look up what other people are selling them for via the trade center 'base color' search. some can be very pricey, especially if they are BO or combo. special bases obtained via applicators are less valuable, as are NCL exclusive special bases.

some bases are combo factors, you can search for them here and that might make them more valuable at times, for example mulberry base lions from explore are very valuable this month thanks to the new constellation combo only available in july. always look up what others are selling them for before making a listing.

if your search returns some lions selling for a few sb and then some selling for loads of gb, it's because what can really skyrocket the value of a lion is the amount of valuable BO markings and other characteristics.
- tier 0 and 1 markings are found on NCLs and applicable through the oasis, so these are not valuable at all when it comes to pricing lions.
- tier 2 markings come from raffle lionesses and are highly sought after.
- tier 3 markings come from applicators, and the majority are not considered valuable unless the lion has many markings and is very pretty.
- tier 4 markings are rosettes and these are very valuable, but one is not enough nowadays. inverted rosettes seem to be worthless on their own. low gen muts with one rosette frequently go for less than 100, so the value of rosettes is highly dependant on how many other good traits the lion has, like BO eyes, mane shape etc.
- tier 5 markings are the ones that come from hybrids - mottled stripes, mottled rosettes, phantom rosette, as well as a few special applicators from the gorilla shop or the referral shop. they are very valuable.
- tier 6 markings are exclusive to RMA - random marking applicators. this is a gamble that costs 2 per marking (one for the applicator and one for the remover) and people will spend the equivalent of hundreds or even thousands of US dollars in gb trying to get certain markings (usually this is done for rosettes). i haven't personally seen the tier 6s themselves to be very valuable and they are frequently sold as fodder.

a lot of people prefer clean (not inbred) and very low generation lions (4-5 maximum), so those factors also play a big part in the price.

here is a guide to BO traits that might help you better understand the value of a lion.

edited to add: having more markings is preferred by the market, with 8-10 seeming to be the ideal (in the standard slots, not 11 and above)
