I've seen many posts on here where a morph isn't the best looking and everyone's saying don't but that one, wait and get a better one. I too try and get morphs that make you go WOW!!!! my question is even tho you have something that's top notch, doesn't mean ever one of it's offspring is going to be. since you recommend members not to get these morphs. when you hatch one that's not top notch, what are you going to do with it? keep it or kill it, since by the many posts I read, selling isn't an option. I don't have an issue with someone being honest. yes grade the snake, give a range with what you think it should be worth. but unless you think it's sick or deformed. don't buy the snake. to me, it's a bad statement.
when I get one that's not top notch, my price reflects that. not everyone can afford the best. and when it comes down to it. they are all ball pythons, just different paint jobs. I have many ball pythons that I consider very nice. like my pastel clown. I can't say that I'll keep him forever. but I have a normal female that I can say "I'll keep her forever". go figure that.
