    I didn't know where to put this .. if im in the wrong place .. mods please move it .. but it should fit here .. its a new site everyone should check .. I think it has great future possibilities if a bunch of people jump on board with it .. its call reptilebay.com its a auction site .. but the really what I think it is and what it can be if people start getting with it .. it would be like a online reptile show .. it could be great .. I think the idea is great and I just wanna get it out there so all of u can check it out .. these stuff on there that ends today that's going 4 great prices .. granted this site just got up and running so not a lot of people know yet so u might find something at a amazing price right now .. I would just go check it and read the about us so u can get a idea where there going


    thanks Steve

    Interesting idea. I wonder what it will do to prices. If it really brings in all the small time breeders to be able to sell to the masses, I think that it could cause a more rapid price correction to account for changes supply and demand. Of course it could open up demand from people that for whatever reason want to buy there, but not on facebook.

    I still like to see in person the snake that I am buying. Also as a seller, I like to have the person see it before they buy it. It just makes the chance of something going wrong, so much smaller.

    im thinking it could keep prices good if everyone is on the same ship .. like u have morphs that dropped like crazy and its because theres people jumping into this hobby with the ideas of getting rich so they breed these expensive morphs and sell them dirt cheap and its messing up the bizz IMO ..

    i understand what mike is trying to do .. hes tryng to get all breeders / hobbyist in one place ..
    it could turn out great .. maybe even more balanced pricing across the board .. i just think it opens up the market better just depends on if everyone gets with .. think if he got his 80k followers on fb .. and brian from bhb got his 80k followers and ben sigel got his ( i know ben is big on fb auctions ) just think of all the buyers and that's just 3 people .. the possibilities are endless

    its interesting.

    but it seems a bit incomplete. for example, each seller should have a detailed profile. right now the website appears to be in test mode, and i only see one seller, Mike Wilbanks. it says he can bring the BP to Hamm, Germany, or to Hong Kong for free. so the website should also contain the dates, when exactly he will be at what location. the overview should also list the name of the seller with each snake, and show the ratings for that seller. right now i only see one picture for each snake, only one perspective, and its not particularly high resolution.

    there are many places where you see the name of the seller, but not the ratings for that seller.

    so, some things need to be added. most importantly a profile page for the sellers, with information about the seller, where you can see past auctions and ratings and contact information, and a description of the breeding operation, what size, what species. and where the seller can introduce himself/herself. basically what breeders have on their websites under "about us" and "contact us".

    It only just launched last week, so im sure Mike will be putting a lot more work into it. So far I love it and see a ton of potential for the hobby in general. If he can attract more sellers and enough page views it could easily surpass Facebook auctions, which everyone pretty much hates anyways. This is a much needed step in the right direction in the evolution of the auction format
