Ha! Thats what I told him!! Getting balls that cheap could cost you BIG FINES. Another reason theres no such thing as cheap balls. My fiancee told me that it could also possibly be that the guy was keeping them illegally and someone found out about it....but anyways, Im leaning towards the stolen thing. I mean, I guess my co_worker is in the clear if no one reports them stolen, but I am cautious. And Im not buying the whole "I want them to go to good homes" BS. Any good or responsible breeder would not let his balls go that cheap, because a person who is willing to pay a decent full price for a snake is probably knowledgeable of its value and more apt to take care of it and give it a good home.
