    Craigslist Lemon Pastel

    Saw an ad for a lemon pastel, says it is Bell line male 900 grams for $100. Is this a good price? E-mailed the person, no pictures, no paperwork saying it is Bell line. As I am fairly new, wondering if you think this is worth going to look at? I am assuming that without paperwork, the claim to Bell line is pretty much worthless right?

    Yah that's a great price for a breeder sized male but it is pretty sketchy just because it's from CL. Prices are pretty similar for all the different lines, so not knowing the line for sure I don't think would really effect what you could ask for the offspring.

    Don't do it, that is a scam in one way or another. That snake is not worth $100, its worth at least $300 and the fact that he is selling it for that little just mean something is wrong. Whether it be a birth defect, or hes unbreedable, or he only eats teddy bear hamsters, etc. Don't do it and just wait untill you can go a close expo and find the exact one that you want.

    Re: Craigslist Lemon Pastel

    the bell's dont produce lemon lines.

    i dont think a pastel male is worth 300 anywhere in this country

    Re: Craigslist Lemon Pastel

    I thought it sounded kind of fishy when he said he had no pics. I got a male pastel off of craigslist a while back for $75. Not a bad animal, but was infested with mites. Thanks to PAM I got that under control, but I learned my lesson the hard way about "craigslist deals" LOL. I admit this ad intrigued me, so I responded just to see. But you are right, there is probably something wrong. The other odd thing was that he said "he's a great eater, just ate a rat a few days ago, and has one in him right now?" What the heck? How often is he feeding that snake?

    Re: Craigslist Lemon Pastel

    sounds like a scam to me, id pay it no mind. I see ads on CL with pictures of Normals being offered as pastels all the time.
    The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it.
