I just put a down payment on a Pinstripe female from Royal Constrictor Design. She was $600, and around 300 grams. This is when I went to Tinley Park.
I could have easily spent that same $600 on a near breeding size female, but you know what? That female was not in the same in the same league with the one I bought. Sure I could have been breeding her probably within a few months, compared to at least two seasons for my new baby. I didn't care. I knew exactly what I wanted my pinstripe to look like, and Garrick had her. Sure there will always be people out there wanting something for nothing, that is the way of the world. But there will also be those of us who are willing to pay for what we want.
