Purebred persian cats, IMHO most useless animal ever lol (my family bred them) but they are beautiful and friendly. A show quality female had an offer of $3,000 + shipping, from one breeder charged $1,500 + first pick of litter got you a high quality breeder. $50 for a good gosling seems quite reasonable. Pets aren't always about utility.
Not saying a mixed breed cat is not a great cat, I have 2, or that a less expensive breed of goose is not awesome (honestly I wish I had room for a flock of White Chinese) but sometimes you just pay more for a special breed, especially when its from a breeder who has really worked with their animals to get the best traits.
That said watch craigslist, sometimes you can find adult pairs for less when people have to rehome them (seen them on our CL time to time).
