What are your buy-ins for your fantasy football leagues?

I'm in a few leagues + pools, my buy-ins generally range from $100 - $150. I've got some friends in finance though and heard about some of the big leagues downtown. Wondering what the typical buy-ins are. (I'm a co-founder at FantasyBuzzer dot com. We're a small NYC-based fantasy football startup, so not in the finance industry.)

12 team league, $250 buy-in with yearly trip to Vegas for a draft But we've setup the payout structure such that a lot of people end up earning at least $75 - $150 back due to weekly / quarterly payouts for highest score, etc... Last year the guy that won took ALMOST every weekly / quarterly / season payout except the 2nd place payout which is $500. I forget his total winnings but it was close to $2250

 

12 team $150 buy-in - all to the victor

8 team $100 buy-in - $600 to the victor, $100 to second place, $100 to highest point total for the season (often the victor, but not always)

Looks like I need to step up my game though
