Finally at 1X you have pied, sweet cap, pb, cycle, etc. ( non pieds and sweet caps may get a slight premium). Of course most of its driven by population, presentation, etc. I'm sure others on here will be a little more insightful but that's my take on it.

BTW, I love the topic of this thread but it should probably be moved out of b/s/t.

I'm also no expert, but I'd group them as follows:
Old Mill Brown and Ty Cobb backs - nearly impossible, probably over 100x
Lenox Brown / BL460 ~50x
Drum / Uzit 30x - 50x
Hindu Red / Lenox Black / Carolina Brights / BL350 10x - 20x
Hindu Brown 10x
AB350 NF/AB460/Cycle460/PD42 3x - 8x
Tolstoi/EPDG/AB350F/Cycle350/OMSL/SV460 1.5x - 3x
PB/OM/SV150/SV350 1.2x - 1.5x

Population also plays a role, and can skew these numbers dramatically in some cases.
