    Like stated if you love it and have to have it then price should not be a issue.

    To one its own but keep in mind you CAN AND WILL find ones just as nice cheaper.
    Ya we were just stating our opinion. Thats why I said they USUALLY arent high quality. Just trying to keep the prices level!

    You should try and negotiate a better price....it does look like a nice clean bee but their prices are around 500-600...money you can bring down is money in your pocket for another snake

    i second this.. with ANYTHING you pay cheap you get cheap.. my cocker spaniels are a perfect example if id only added the extra money with my first as i did my second id have save tons in the long run

    i say if its a good price and obviously a very beautiful snake then id go for it. just keep in mine YOU'LL NEVER GO WRONG WHEN IT COMES TO QUALITY
    just my 2 cents

    Quality does not always mean more Money. I in my right mind have e very right to sell pieds for 100$ if i want too but i chose not too for the fact of what they can bring in.

    Just each seller has the right to ask half the market value of any one snake if he wants too and theres nothing you or I or anyone else cant do about it.

    Re: Bumblebee Ball Python

    Personally, I would ask for a lower price. From the picture it almost looks like he has a wobble. I personally would look for a more reduced Bumblebee, but that's just me. If it were me purchasing the snake, I would ask for a lower price.

    Re: Bumblebee Ball Python

    That bumblebee only looks to be around 100 grams also, for that price you could find a female that weighs almost 250 grams, so i would look for a different breeder, but if you really love that guy, its your money...

    Re: Bumblebee Ball Python

    My bee is in my avatar.....and I negotiated to $500 at a show. Sometimes I think you can get deals at shows. He is from a very reputable breeder and is a great little BP.

    Now the one in the pic I think looks great to me as well.....I personally do not think that $700 is too much. I have seen them range in price from cheaper to more expensive. It is a matter of what you like and what you are willing to pay. I will pay more for the one I like...and of course the reputation. That doesn't say that someone that offers cheaper cannot be a great breeder.

    Also someone else stated that the pic made it look like it might have a wobble. Check on that ...talk to the breeder. Could just be the pic but it does look like there is a bit of a head tilt. They are part spider and sometimes pick up that trait.

    But I think he is certainly a looker! Love those bee eyes!!

    Re: Bumblebee Ball Python

    I called the breeder and explained that some people thought there might be a head wobble and he told me he'd put it in writing that there was not one, so I sent the check out. I'm super excited and I will post pics of him when I get him!
