You are assuming that they care about making money with the hobby. I bled a lot more cash each month when I was showing my horse as a hobby than I ever have fooling with snakes as a hobby - and there was no money coming in with the horse, it was all going out!

Why would you support the same people you're complaining about? I dont get it...
What was i supposed to do, tell them I'd pay double for it. They don't even realize it was me that bought the thing

In this case you just got a really great deal.
If they breed to make some profit too, they'll upper their prices with time. With that strategy they can win customers and reputation if do good, step by step they can get higher prices like their competitors. Sounds interesting like marketing idea.
If they want just cover the needs of their collection.. well.. that's an other thing.

Re: Competing with lowballers
Or they just know that if they sell them cheap they sell a lot. I do it for fun too but I'm no fool and know how to make a dime and put value on my time.

Re: Competing with lowballers
Doesn't make sense to tank the market. They drive 1.5 hours each way. I think they don't know how to make money so they sell them dirt cheap to move them and cover their cost.
