I understand that. But I think you are missing the point of what I am asking/seeking. I am not trying to understand why people by morphs; I am asking who is buying.

My personal observation and assumptions are that, mostly, it's breeders buying/selling morphs from/to other breeders with exceptions of individual non-breeders with enough disposable income to buy them.

But since I am not a true breeder (just a dreamer to do so one day), I do not know this for sure. So I am just trying to get a idea from actual pro breeders who their real customers are and what category do they fall under. I've gotten at least one response along those lines and I appreciate that.

Hopefully that clears things up a bit.
