Pinstripe Value

I purchased my 2007 female pinstripe in early 2008 for $600. Now, 2010 pinstripes are going for way less. I was wondering how much a 2007 1400g female pinstripe would be worth, money-wise. Not that I would ever sell her! She is one of those snakes I'll never part with. I was just wondering how the money of my snakes has changed since I bought them.

Breeding size females that are healthy and all that jazz are worth a pretty penny.

It's hard to say because there just aren't any for sale, and if there were it would probably get snatched up in a second.

$1000? $2000? More? I've seen 1500g+ pastel females go for $600-800 or so.

With pretty much any morph, you see supply skyrocket every year via exponential growth due to breeding, thus significant price drops over short periods of time. However, 2-3 years to wait to get a clutch from a newly purchased female hatchling is a long time to wait, so adult female morphs are often worth a pretty penny simply due to impatience :D

Big breeding morph females can usually sell for roughly $1 a gram and up. I could see a 1400g pinstripe female selling for 1000-1500 easy.

She's been breeding with a pastel. I'm hoping for some pastel pins. It's crazy how the values have been changing over the past few years.

Just as a side question ....how much are pastel pins going for?

$550-850 on the classifieds. In general they're just a bit above bees.

Seams like the prices are falling faster now than they have in a while. I remember when Pieds were selling in the 50k range, and that was less than 10 years ago.

Nice odds with that clutch! Yea, I have a few snakes I will never sell. :D Thanks to everyone who replied.

You mean lemon blast？ :) That should cost more than $1k in this part of the world, and your breeder pin is....priceless.
