Well the way I see it, a "good deal" is in the eye of the buyer. Weaver is happy with her purchase and has stated, it doesn't matter to her if he ever prooves out and she got what she wanted - an established male that eats f/t. To her, he was worth the $100 that she spent, even if he is "just" a normal. I say good for her, she knew that the chances of him being a true DH were slim to none.
He met her criteria - well established, eating f/t - everything else - if it prooves out, and even she has admitted that it's probably not likely - is a bonus to her. $100 to her was money well spent. I don't think she has any grand illusions that she got "lucky" in the het game.
He's a very handsome boy and I'm happy that you got what you wanted! I love his name too! Congratulations!
