A single ''denarius'' is thought to be equivalent in buying power to US$20 in modern day terms, and an ordinary slave would cost as little as 250 denarii, with trained or proven gladiators often holding much higher values.

In a pick-up match, players might agree to vary the starting value of their schools, to allow for grand spectacles and small skirmishes, or to allow a more experienced lanista to deliberately handicap himself.
