If these were labs, I'd be all over it. I am in the market for a lab puppy. I just don't want to spend $500+ on a dog.
I have to ask:
Health clearances? Pedigrees? Any titles or hunt test passes?

There is no reason to spend over $500 for a lab. Prices on dogs has gotten out of control lately. There are only a couple dogs out of each litter that will be elite trial dogs if they are out of a good bloodline. I remember taking to some of the trial trainers and they said more than $500 is pointless if they are not guaranteed to be an elite dog. You are better off spending the extra money on training.
My biggest issue is that I've never paid more than $300 for a dog. My current dog cost me $300 and is one hell of an animal. I've also had free labs that turned out amazing too. I'm patiently waiting for that one opportunity to come along where someone is pricing labs at $500 or below. I've been looking at GSP's as well and perhaps may get one but I'm unsure how they would fare goose hunting. The older I get the more I enjoy upland hunting.
