Making an amazing pickup tomorrow

My friend is going to be a father later this week and his girlfriend said the snakes gotta go, all but two that is. Well tomorrow I'm getting a het pied male proven breeder(with papers), 3 pastel het pied females (1 breeder sized two on the small side), a lesser male (sub adult with plugs), a mojave female (baby), and a large (3000g) female normal. All of this for $500. I'm trying to get him to sell me the other two as well they are both girls one is a 5 foot mojave and the other is a 4.5 foot pastave

That's a score right there congrats man.

thanks thinking of reselling/trading most but definitely keeping the het pied and big pastel het pied and getting them going this season

wow! What a fantastic deal! Congrats! :gj:

I'm not speaking about this situation in particular as I have no idea what the basis is for him getting rid of his collection and it would be unfair for me to comment on it but;

I hate when spouses feel like they are justified in telling their partners that they "have to," get rid of the things that are important to them. I can understand discussing the issue if there is a concern for whatever reason, but ultimately I feel it's unfair to strong arm someone into giving up something they feel passionate about. I was told that it would be nice if I sold ALL of my snakes and equipment, because it would be fun to have the money that is tied up in assets. I said it would be nice to sell all of her shoes and Jewellery and stop all of the trips to the Salon. Which ended that conversation..

Any ways, my point is that NOBODY has the right to force another person to give up something that is important to them. It makes me angry just to think about. LOL Again, not speaking on this situation, just reminded me of how betrayed I felt when that was asked of me.

Cheers,
Chris.

Hard to pass up a deal like that. Hopefully everything goes smoothly. Post pics!!

x2, I was thinking that. I wasn't going to say anything but that's a little messed up haha. Is he giving you them so cheap because he has to get rid of it quickly or because your his buddy and he knows where they are going?
I would be annoyed if I gave my buddy a good deal and he only bought it to flip it.
