IMO the site may be useful for someone to get a "general price range" of what a specific animal is bringing, especially if I havent hatched the said animal, but I would not solely base my price from what I see on those sites. For example lets say there is a crap example pastel being offered for 75.00 infact lets say theres 3 ads from dif breeders offering crap pastels for 75.00 would I base the price of my grade A pastels on 75.00 because thats what I see crap examples offered for? No. Greed dictates prices on KS, typically this person has a specific morph, he sees another person has the same morph listed for 300 so he posts his for 275 or even 250. If they feel that driven to chase that dollar then let them, doesnt mean anyone else has to. You also have some listings that are posted with drastic price cuts because a breeder needs to move a certain animal quickly for whatever reason. I know a person atm that had something come up and has a 1300 gram het pied female for 200.00, does that mean I would sell mine for 200? No. You are dead on about poor market practices, thats why alot come and go in this industry.
