    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.

    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?

    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.
