    average examples of each morph, I would go with pin. If a good looking pastel or spider came up.... I would go with that.

    Pastels may be low price wise but are ESSENTIAL to numerous combos out there, people tend to forget that it has probably been the most influential mutations on the market. IMO pastel or super pastel females are more valuable to a collection than the price reflects.

    Inc-dom mutations will be much more valuable in the long run than dominant mutations due to the fact that you can produce a visually distinct homozygote. Of the three you listed, I would wait to find an exceptional example of pastel to purchase. You will spend more than the $75 that people on average are asking, but it will be worth every penny. I believe Garrick DeMeyer has some nice ones available on his website http://www.royalconstrictordesigns.com/ I'm sure you could find some other pretty nice ones if you looked around long enough. It may also be worth checking out any expos that may be coming up in your area so you are looking at the actual animal as opposed to just a photograph.
