    What would you do to get your hands on...

    A sterling male 300g for $500?
    I've been offered a young sterling male today for $500 the only deal is I don't have the money. This guy is selling dirt cheap because he bought an entire collection and is getting rid of what he doesn't plan on keeping as quickly as possible.
    So what would you/ could I do to get this snake before some one else does?

    That's all???

    All joking aside, what can you do? If you don't have the money, you don't have it...unless you had anything you can sell quick or can borrow the money from someone, I don't know what to tell you.

    1. I would try and borrow money from family/friend to get it.
    2. Or sell something you dont need.
    3. Or just pick up some extra hours at work.
    4. Or kidnap a child from a wealthy family and only ask for $500 ransom.

    Personally id go with #4. I dont always kidnap children to make money, but when i do its to get more bps.

    Re: What would you do to get your hands on...

    First thing I'd ask myself is, can I really use this animal in my plans, or am I just jumping at the good deal? I learned my lesson, and my racks were overflowing with impulse purchases within a year, that I had no idea what I'd do with as far as breeding plans. Focus is hard.

    If it passes that test ...

    Any way you can put a down payment on it to hold it until you can come up with the rest?

    I don't think borrowing the money is an option. Kidnapping involves too much work, especially with spoiled rich brats lol. And maybe a payment plan/ partial trade would be an option... As far as him fitting or not fitting into my plans I was looking for a male this year anyways. Not exactly the direction I was planning on but I'd use the money from breeding him to my pastel girl to buy what I want to work with.
