    Re: "Market Crashing" Question about pricing, etc.

    Yes and No. Selling snakes for a significant lower price just to get your name out there isnt necessarily the best route. Dont sell your self short.If you have quality specimens then you should price them accordingly. Be patient. The market fluctuates quite a bit but there will always be buyers. The best way to get your name out there is marketing. Spend some time or investment capital and PUT your name out there. Websites, forums like these, classifieds etc. Lowering prices wont assist in building your reputation. I know personally if i see somebody with prices too low i will pass on doing business with them. It raises a few red flags in my eyes. Especially if the snakes are larger and falling in price there is obviously a reason someone else did not acquire them. Big named breeders arent really able to AFFORD to sell their snakes at a higher price. Remember, larger breeder, larger overhead. They might be HAVING to sell there animals at a higher price. Just price around market value taking into consideration your particular specimens, the quality of the animal and how well they represent the particular morph and youll be fine.
