Do you REALLY think so?
The main reason I see, and I see it all the time, especially at that place that is virtually in a league of their own, is price.
What makes you think a breeder would sell for the same price as someone who buys and then resells?
Seems that some just don't want ANY competition.
If an animal is quality OR you buy knowing it may need work, why shouldn't you buy it? Because some guy who is greedy and holierthanthou says you won't get as good an animal as you would from him even though you pay him a LOT more for his? Seriously?
There are a lot of guys out there who sell crap. Josh is not one of them.
I buy and sell all year. I have not had a single complaint in longer than I can remember. I would bet you hands down that some of the snakes I 'flip' are of better quality at lower prices than most of what you "breeders who hate flippers" pawn off.
Josh isn't a bad guy. Outback isn't a bad outfit.
There are bad guys and suckass oufits out there. Pick on them.
By the way, where did the ancestors of your snakes originate? Got some flipped blood in there, do ya?
