From what I seen, it 'crashed' because people couldn't sell animals quick enough so they sold them for next to nothing.
A friend of mine hatched an enchi butter x normal clutch just before xmas, sold all the single genes for £60-80 each and they went like hot cakes.
People see a morph being sold somewhere for £X and instantly that becomes the 'market value' and when they see crap quality morphs for a low price, they expect to pay the same for a high quality example
Quality animals always sell,
A bright, high quality pastel will always sell for more than a low quality dull pastel
