What things (big or small) have you sold to buy BPs?

Getting ready to sell a bunch of pelican cases, 2 digital cameras and hopefully some of my ceramics/pottery and photographs....

I gave up an xbox and 52 inch tv for snakes. I was gaming to keep myself occupied but when I moved into a place I could keep snakes I gave it up. I am not much of a gamer anyhow. and I mostly watched movies and tv shows on my computer or ipad via pirate or netflix, plus I could still game on my pc if wanted to play something which I did when I was extremely bored. I got into breeding rats and that actually became a living for me til my roommates girlfriend decided she wanted $2500 of my money more then I needed it to pay bills.

have sold some game systems before. but my main hobby is fish and horror onesheets. so not to change thread around but i did sell a bumble bee one time for a poster, lol but with my risng obsession to get me an albino again. stuff might be sold lol

I don't think i've ever sold anything to get a snake. I've thought about selling some of my stuff, but I'm kinda too lazy to lol. I collect sports memorabilia too but would probably be hard pressed trying to find someone willing to trade snakes for that. I guess i could try selling some of it sometime, couldn't hurt lol.

Mike, be honest here, we all know how you earned the money for a lot of your snakes. Sure, "innocence," isn't an object, but you still sold something.

She one of your higher end customers??

If she uses your "services" that much, maybe you should give her a rewards card so she can earn some freebies.

Earth is pretty available where I shop for models, you could probably buy another Earth back one day easily :)

Thank you for the kind words :) It all started with Breyers for me too :gj:

lol :) I did sell off my collection years ago, because we had a long-distance move (for $ for the move, as well as logistics; I was not going to be able to breed them in our new place, and other things like getting a new job and settling in took precedence. I kept some snakes as a base to restart someday, and ended up selling all but one who was more of a pet than of breeding value to me before we moved back here for financial reasons. Now, if I could go back, I would have tried to keep more of them. I did ensure that they were sold to good homes, but my advice would be to think long and hard before selling off.
