Platinums Prices Questioned

Can anyone please send a pic of a good to fabulous Platinum? I see ridiculous prices on these sweet looking snakes that make me balk to say the least. LOL.

Craigslist ads I see as small re home fee listed; 900 - 1400 gram male for 300 at least. 400 I have also see this advertised. Am I crazy? Or this accurate?

1.0 Lemon pastel-flamed out
1.0 Spider
1.0 Pinstripe
0.1 Lemon pastel
0.2 Normals
0.1 Amel Corn
unsexed hatchling snow kingsnake
1 Red Oscar Fish

You mean a lesser platinum? I think the one that Ralph Davis produced is slightly different than the common Lessers you see today.

$300 to $400 for a male lesser isn't that unreasonable. I've seen baby males go for as low as $200.

Lessers are lesser platinums.
All lessers, if true to their breeding and not otherwise noted, are all descended from RDR's animals.

E.Noah also has a line of lessers - mine came from him.

Are you asking about Lesser Platinums (aka Lessers) or the Platty Daddy (aka Platinum)? The distinction is important...

my Lesser, (non RDR line), was $350 last year when i got him.

I paid A LOT for my lesser platinum three years ago. He did a complete color change. His dark brown spider pattern turned a light sand color, nearly all his lesser yellow is gone. Hes very washed out and pretty.

I'd say for that price you're looking at a Lesser Platinum.

Here are a couple of pics from Chad Hulker showing the difference between a Platinum and a Lesser Platinum. Platinum versions are to the left.

This one is comparing and Emperor Pinstripe (Lesser Pastel Pinstripe) to a Platiator (Platinum Pastel Pinstripe)
