Any of you, call up any other large breeder and tell them you want to buy a lesser for 2500 because Joe sold his, so that must be what they are worth. Go ahead, see what those breeders say.

Guess what? The price of lessers just doubled the moment he sold out!

Now its harder for him to get his hands on more to breed or expand his stock. NICE!!

I get what you are saying, but will that really happen? Will he do it again? That must be the main concern for those bigger names and even small time breeders. If they hear he has these animals available again, will they get nervous and could we see another "name" dump his stuff in anticipation of MKR doing that to beat him to the punch?

I wouldnt anticipate another serious reputable 'name' but- I dont think MKR is exactly selling out his breeding stock....

He might have sold out of the stock of mojaves/lesser he sells......but that doesnt mean he doesnt have some of these animals that he uses strictly for production purposes.....Not all animals are for sale.

Not really....he did not sell any female and probably not all the males.

I was half-kidding.....this sale that he put on had the whole world freaking out about how lessers were now only worth 2500 bucks. Everyone with lessers for sale IS NOT going to just up and drop their price to 2500 just cause one guy did it. Make sense? Go shoot RDR an email and see if he'll give you a lesser for 2500. YEAH RIGHT!

None of us really know what he has behind the scenes.

I don't think it is likely that we will see another "Name" Dump it any time soon..... but before MKR did this, would you of laughed at me if I said I know a big name breeder that is selling Mojaves for $800? Or Lessers for $2500?

It's a possibility is all I'm saying, if it's happened once it can happen again and most likely will at some point!

Oh yea see this is what happens when you psot with a headache.. LOL

I think people need to realize that co-doms are easy produce en mass if you set up for it. All you need is money and a 6th grade education. The supply of them is going to go up and the price is going to go down.

All other things being equal, if more and more people demand them asthe supply increases and the price drops, you begin to have a more stable price reduction curve over time, if you think about it graphically. So of course you'll have bigger drops when the price is high, and eventually will level out and not decrease as dramatically over time as more are produced.
