repticon prices?

Just wondering what prices to expect on a Mojave, pinstripe, lesser and cinnamon breeder males if I'm lucky enough to find one at the Atlanta repticon? Of course just looking for approximates.

I had found a breeder size male Mojave for a really good price, emailed the Guy and emaile him saying i would pick up Sunday and then found out he sold it today after telling me he would hold it because I live 2 hours away! I'm bummed because its my husband and my anniversary this weekend and this was his present. So back to the drawing board again...

I'm considering going to this too. Are there usually a lot of bp's? Worth a 2 hr drive?

There are generally lots of BPs at any reptiles show, though with repticon it depends on the location. Usually on their website a list of vendors is posted and you can get an idea for what people are bringing.

When repticon came to Chicago there was a fair amount of everything. Not enormous because it was the first chicago repticon, but a decent selection of ball pythons.

As for prices, they are usually pretty consistant with prices on fauna or kingsnake. You will probably be able to find some breeder or well started males since they are sometimes a little harder to sell (especially single genes). Try and get a good deal! Usually you can talk the seller down a little bit for the older animals :)

Prices at Repticon will be right around market value, perhaps a little lower. I suggest to secure yourself a sale, look at the vendors and pre-buy.

Now as for the seller you were already planning to buy from, did you send some sort of deposit? Or some sort of written agreement? Maybe it's just me, but as a seller, if I say I'm going to hold something, I'm going to hold something. If not I'd tell the buyer that I can't hold it.
