Oh believe me, when I see something retail, I know you can easily take a huge chunk off the price, as far as realistic value. I knew he wasn't worth $300, I figured more like $150 at best.

I think that's why he stayed on a shelf for so long lol I kind of wanted to "rescue" it (for lack of better way to say it, that's a little over exaggerative lol), because he had crickets from the other animals all in his tank, and the tank seemed too small too, it looked like about half the size of a 10 gallon. I knew I could give it more attention than petco would and had. I'm pretty sure crickets in his tank are probably harmless, it looked bad though.

All of the breeders I look for in my area seem over priced unfortunately. But I'm still new at this, and I'm sure there are people I'm just not seeing. Thank you for the reply!
