    Do you trust buying Hets

    I could never see myself buying a 66% or 50% Het anything, how could you trust that the seller aint scamming?

    Unfortuantly there is alot of crooked people in the world looking to make a little extra!

    Well..You have to trust the breeder. If you don't trust them, don't buy from them. Start getting to know people, make some connections, read up to see if they have scammed people before, see who you really start to trust.

    Re: Do you trust buying Hets

    There are a number of people that I would absolutely trust to buy possible hets from. And there are, of course, people that I would NOT trust to buy possible hets from...but I also wouldn't bother buying anything else from them, either.

    I understand that there are some folks in the world who simply can't trust ANYbody...for whatever reasons that may be. If you're that sort...then buying possible hets probably isn't a good idea for you.

    Depends who you are buying from. There are many people I wouldn't hesitate buying hets from.

    If you do your homework thoroughly you often pass the test

    Well, that's what TRUST means. It means that even if they don't prove out, I still believe they were the product of the promised breeding pairs. Because I TRUST the person I bought them from, it would never occur to me that I'd been "scammed" even if they don't prove out.

    That is why I would only buy hets from trusted reputable breeders like Boas and Balls, BHB, or Ralph Davis to name a few.
