    My only comment to all of this, is if I was going to attempt to sell a normal for $250, I would at least peel off all of the stuck shed before taking a picture of the ball.

    Oi. Hes being COMPLETELY honest.
    I think the subject heading is misleading. He could have mentioned the whole 'Tequila' aspect of the animal in the body of the ad. I see he is being honest. But tag it as being 'potential new morph'. I just have an issue with selling an animal as a new trait that has yet to be proven. Just my opinion tho.

    Re: Tequila ball

    see the key phrase used there is "potential new morph" potential means it might be and might not be so with that being said that would mean it is NOT proven yet.

    as to Ken I'd buy from him any day of the week.

    Ken is a good guy.

    If you need your ads dumbed down anymore than his, which tell you with great exactitude what he specifically does and does not know, then perhaps you should not be purchasing online without supervision.

    Hmmmmm, so either you have a fantastic sense of humor or a teeny tiny itsy bitsy reproductive protuberance.

    I'd rather chuckle than sneer so I'll take fantastic sense of humor for 100.00 please.

    That's cute.

    It's completely understandable that you are standing up for Ken. Never did I question him as an individual. Rather I questioned the animal he was selling and how he was advertising it.

    I am sure Ken is a great guy Wes. A normal ball python with stuck shed isn't worth $250.

    It's an opinion...that's all.

    I completely agree.

    Can't prove it's a normal though. In fact, there are others out there who also think this is something to work with. I don't think Ken mentioned that but if he had it would have lent a bit more credence to his ad.

    The stuck shed is not good and I'll not excuse him on that one but I will say this, he sells more snakes in a year than most will ever see.

    I know nothing about the seller so I can't say anything other than what my first impression is of the ad/pictures. I wouldn't be jumping to buy based on the pictures. The first snake looks pretty thin to me along with the stuck shed.
