I think those lines are pretty accurate in terms of common genetics - rare genetics, but most hobbyist breeders might have quite a few on the lower end, and only a couple on the high end. So would you categorize people based on their highest morph?


I do agree that the middle tier people get screwed over in a way. The more people that start working with newer morphs, the more the price seems to drop. It can be very hard to buy your way into some of those top projects. I'd love to get involved in some of them, but I am afraid of the huge drop you mentioned.
I completely agree with the high end vs high quality difference. I haven't gotten my daily dose of caffeine yet

I can see why people categorize themselves or try to, but there are always outliers. I guess my answer for that would be categorize by the high end.

The "huge" price drop is relative I think. Is the price drop 30%? 50%? 90%? Regardless of the price drop, I think it is still possible to get some (at least a good amount) of your investment back.
