How much would it cost(from a Lore Perspective) to buy a Defiler engine?

So, I want in the lore of my Black Legion Warband to buy a Defiler from an Iron Warrior or daemon forge world. (Also an excuse to potentially buy and paint one)

I know it would cost a MONSTROUS amount of resources. Heck, I think it would cost the most precious resources of my boys to buy it off of another. A ton of Geneseed, a ton of genetically compatible aspirants, a ton of ammo, a ton of guns and armour, and potential Legions of slaves.

But… how much is too much? Is 40… Geneseed(I don’t know the technical term, Progenoids feels right but I could be wrong) too much or too little? Is a million slaves too little or too much?

I know Warhammer isn’t known for their RPG-like stats and such, and it’s mostly, fight-fight-fight, but I like the Galaxy-building stuff and I’m a Nerd.

I asked elsewhere but was just told “make something up” but… how much is too much? How much is too little?? If you were a Warband who built a Defiler, and another wanted to buy it off you, how much would you ask for? I know I could just have my lads fight the Warband and take it from the other but I want to show how even in Chaos; bartering can happen.
