Best Answer

The cost of a slave depended on the build and age of a slave. Young, strong, men were more expensive than for say older men with a small build. Male slaves ranged from 400-1,200$. The time also played a role in the price.

Slave auctions were horrible times for slaves where families were torn apart and chances were they would never see each other again.
