    Re: What do you think, is it a normal or super pastel?

    Oh good old Tracy the saleswoman. "mixed up" huh? The "normal price" for a male Pastel is about $50 to $100 nowadays. BG doesn't care who's name is on it.

    That is one nice Pastel. One of the best BG has ever seen anyway. Wonder how such an "expert" could make such a "mistake".

    Why don't you just ask VPI ? I'm sure they would know.

    But IMO it is a super and a nice one at that.

    Yeah...

    $250 is still a ridiculous price for a Super...

    Re: What do you think, is it a normal or super pastel?

    I have good news and bad news for you......

    This is a very ironic situation because I was talking to Tracy at the table during the NARBC about my brass ball and breeding projects and she realized at that very point the exact question that you have posted up on the forum.

    She turned around and looked at her helpers and said.....

    I know what that ball python was that we thought may have been a super....

    She said that you have in you very possession a Vanilla Pastel...and she was looking for your number to tell you what you have in your collection now.

    I was thinking at that very moment, I wish I could catch a break like that...now you have. Congrats.

    Big Gunns thinks he should return the animal if this was in fact an honest mistake. BG is 100% sure that Tracy would.


    Like BG said....no matter what it is...it's one beautiful snake.

    Re: What do you think, is it a normal or super pastel?

    It would go a long way toward your rep with the breeder if you retured it and got the correct animal. Now that's totally up to you, but put yourself in Tracy's shoes honestly in her shoes and think how much you'd respect the person that brought it back. Never know she make just reward your honesty..

    Always be 100% sure of what you're agreeing with when it comes to BG.

    "respect".....or call them a "sucker".

    Don't worry though, if the Queen of the reptile world sees this thread, BG is 100% sure you'll be over compensated for your honesty. 1000000% actually.

    Do you think Tracy wanted to call to "tell you what you had in your possession", or do you think just maybe she was hoping you'd be "honest"?

    The anticipation may be too much for BG to handle.
