IMO, spending 20k is not a good idea, unless you have been around for a while and have breeding down to the last tee. I spent 11k on snakes last year, and had 3k+ snakes that wouldnt breed, no matter what I did. VERY fustrating.
Do you have any experiance with breeding? Enough to know that if you spend that chunk of money, your confident that you will be able to bring that back in and then some? A ball python is not an animal that you can know will breed every year, what if you buy that $8000 snake, and then find out he wont breed for two years? By then his price may be $2000.
Im just saying get your feet wet, before you dive in.
And dont take the standing offer, try to get the lowest price you can!
