If you are going to throw out a price then make it a good solid offer don't low ball. Also do some research on what you are looking to buy so you know what fair market value is on that animal because some vendors will price there animals a little high. Also don't show up on the last day of the expo and try to low ball because that stuff really pisses me off. Just do your reasearch on the fair market price of the animal and make a good solid offer and you will be fine.
