    Re: What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

    Purchased 3 snakes this year n each one was $1,000... If I had the money my max would be 5k... It seems like a lot of money but most people willing to spend that are planning on breeding it anyways so like others have said its an investment.

    Re: What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

    This question really depends on the disposable income available with which to buy them. Someone making 100k a year wouldn't bat an eyelash at dropping 5k on a premium snake. I put my max at 500, but might go a little higher. I'd prefer to buy baby hets and breed them when they get big enough. The frugal part of me cringes to pay more than that.

    Yellowbelly pair(06) was $800, my Spider pair is undetermined right now , Male Hypo was $500.

    I like payment plans so, in all honesty, if the snake is something I really like I will pay however much I need to.

    Re: What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

    I spent four figures on my FIRST ball python. (And so far only!) I happened to have the money available at the time, and didn't have any problems at all putting it toward my future dreams. If the timing is right, and the money is available (I'd never finance an animal) then the actual dollar signs attached to the snake mean little to me. To me, it's a matter of making dreams come true...and who puts a price tag on that???

    EDIT to clarify: I don't think there's anything wrong with doing a sort of "lay-a-way" financing option for a particular animal. What I mean is that I would never use credit or any sort of loan in order to buy one.

    The most I have spent so far on a single BP is $1400....But sky is the limit to what I would spend....If I am in a position to acquire a morph that I want, I wouldn't let price deter me....Can't put a price tag on your dreams...
