Overpriced ball pythons!

quote from cheryl

"I was told early on that less than $75 for CBB is not infact a CBB, it is a Farmed or WC....."

Well, in my case you would be wrong. The CBB ball that I produced here I my store were sold for 50-60 dollars. I did this for two reasons. #1 A store a few miles from me were selling imports for 40 bucks and people kept asking why mine were more expensive. Even after explaining they often bought for the other place (and came to me when it didn't do well) #2 a few of them went to good friends.

I love those people who make statement like that. (not you Chreyl, the person who told you) Its like they want to cut down everyone else in order to sell their own stuff. If I were selling my CBB at a show for $60.00 and someone else was selling theirs for $75.00 and telling everyone that mine were really imports I would be extremely ticked off and he would know it.

Thats another reason I got into breeding my own ball pythons. At wholsale prices you can never be sure of getting CBB. I have purchased clutches for customers but thats only ones I know were CBB.

Not to put you down Evan, I know what you say is true about imports that are properly cared for (I even spoke to you about purchasing some but changed my mind when mine laid eggs) Its just that when I opened my store I made a descision not to sell imported baby balls or wc adult balls (unless they are LTC. Sometimes I buy adult balls from cusotmers and resell them and I am sure that in many instances they were imported.)
