Here is the e-mail chain I had with Mike as well, I am with the rest of you, something not right with him. He may be legit, but I also called off our trade due to no references and him not wanting to check mine.
I also noticed a small discrepency in his add versus his e-mail. His add mentions the Bumblebee Het Ghost was a F/T eater, which you can see in my e-mails makes a difference to me. He then writes back that the Bumblebee is a live eater. Does not make one a scammer or thief, but that added with the lack of references and not wanting to check mine was enough for me to back away.
Here is when we came to a verbal agreement on the deal, some of you may want to check and see when your deals were made, see if we overlap anywhere. -- Monday, October 18, 2010 11:23 AM --
E-mails start here.
i dont care to check on the gun forums. If you cant do the trade, thats fine. I will look to trade else where. I can totally respect your choice. thanks anyway.

Mike,
Thank you for the info, I do not think I can get them out tomorrow. I can get them out for next Wednesday.
Do you have any references I can check? I have a couple of reptile references, but I have quite a few references from the gun/custom knife arena. I have traded and sold on AR15 and Glocktalk for years. They are the 2 largest gun forums on the net.
If you have no references, I would prefer you send first and I will get you my references for verification. I have a plus 7 on AR15 you can check now under user id MikeDE

I would add $200 with the Het Pied & Cinny.
My reasoning is:
Het pied hatchlings go for $250-$300, mine is 500gr. I know she has no paperwork, so I will not argue too much on her value.
The Cinny is nice looking and already breeder ready and a solid eater, so I think more around $250 trade value is fair.
If you agree, can I get a few more pics of the Bumblebee? Also, what line of Ghost? Any wobble or corkscrew issues?

Mike,
I do not, we only have the Balls, I do have a Calico Hog boa & Cay Caulker Boa, both males, but they are pets as I really like the Insular Island boas. The fact they stay smaller and are now protected, makes them cool to have. The Calico Hog is a mean motorscooter, he has started to calm down for me, but is always an adventure when it is time to handle him.

Sorry about that, here is the Russo.
The only other ball morph I have for trade is a Female Het Red Axnathic – 450gr, picky friggin eater, sometimes F/T, but it has to be left overnight. I am going to go back to live for her and try fresh killed and then F/T all over again. She will grow better for someone that feeds live. I prefer F/T for mine as I can get a better supply/price on them. I have to pay the Pet stores for live and $3-$5 a pop is redonkulous.
I have lots of Ball Morphs, but they are in my plans at the moment, these that I have for trade do not fit in to my ever changing plans and ideas.
My Hidden Gene Woma Granite Yellowbelly male drives all my current breeding plans with my Sentinel male & Vanilla Ghost male second. I have around 6 female het ghost & ph Het ghosts & a Mojave Het Ghost, so your BumbleBee Het OG would fit nicely into my future plans.
Mike
