I think you are right...but who buys these animals at this level. I am certain no one just browsing KS. Maybe a big breeder to big breeder type deal but these would be done behind the scenes. Not to mention if you were to buy this animal you would be 3 years behind him (since it is a female) in producing anything sellable.

but remember you would also be way ahead of everyone else with the exception of 3 or 4 people. But yea, advertising that on KS is stupid

True but the risk of rapid prices drops are real...meaning you could lose your shirt on this deal. Say the price in 3 years drops to $25K. How many people are willing to spend even this amount? (not to mention there are 3-4 others selling them)...so then the price lands at $10K. Or it could hold higher and you make a fortune...just seems awfully risky...to me at least.

That's no surprise if the price I heard for the 'Banana Clown' was correct ($150k). BTW, if I had a $150k to blow the Banana Clown would be at the top of my list. So far the Banana Clown is IMHO, easily the best looking ball I've seen.

Ask yourself this: How can a car sell for $300K, or a painting for $50,000,000? If someone is willing to pay $100k for a snake then so what? That snake has the potential to make back that money, and then some, over time. Supply and demand... :)

It may take you a few years longer to make it back because there will be a rapid price drop. But you will make your money back eventually.

guess i dont ever have to worry about getting one of those beauties...
