I just recently heard about phantoms, and after seeing what they can create, I ran off to kingsnake to get a price gauge on how much it would cost to acquire one. While I've seen some phantoms on the b-p forums that have a decent contrast, nearly all of the ones I saw for sale were normals. I then ran off to worldofballpythons, and looking at their phantom pics, I'm having a hard time telling the difference.
Are there any indications to a phantom, so that one doesn't get ripped off and sold an extremely expensive normal? Because outside of breeding it, I have my doubts.
