What price should I put on my purebred pedigreed New Zealand whites?

Question

I'm thinking of raising rabbits, but I want to figure out if I can actually turn a profit. It doesn't have to be big, but I figure that I should know this now. Yes, I know that I should figure out how much it would cost to keep the rabbits, but I want to know just what people think is a fair price, or what the price is in your area...etc. Please don't just tell me it's difficult to make a profit. I know this. I'm just asking what you think is fair. I've raised rabbits before, but I was much younger, and didn't have to pay for the feed then. Thanks to all answers. God Bless. :)

Oh, and I forgot to add that I would appreciate it if you told me what you thought was a good price for
-non-pedigreed rabbits (People who are buy for meat wouldn't need a pedigree)
versus
-pedigreed rabbits

my friends have a hard time giving away their free bunnies mostly because they only will give them away to people that wont eat them, because they are nice (unlike you) but honestly people that buy rabbits as pets only care about the attitude and people that buy rabbits for meat are soulless and only care about the taste. If I wad you I would sell themas show rabbits because that is the only way you will make money

Well here in Southern Missouri I can buy a Purebred/pedigreed NZ white for $25 for adults $15 for kits.
Purebred/nonpedigreed NZ white : $10-$15 for adults $5-$12 for kits.

Then if you want to butcher them and sell them We get $8 for whole rabbit and $10 for cut up/fryer style rabbit.

I myself get $5-$10 for NZ white crosses.

I think people who are in a 'pets' section would probably not know how much a dead rabbit costs.
