Depends on the type, but in general, it is not unresonable.

If I were gonna get one of those I would go to VPI and not some guy on craigslist.

Re: CL Het blue eye lucy
I got my albino from Vin. He had his Lucys and hets at the last white plains show. I didnt think that there eyes were any darker then any other lucys ive seen. this happens to be one of the few pics I took that day.
as you can see in the pic he was selling het pairs for $2000. I think he was selling lone males for $750 ( don't quote me). IMO the only person i would buy a Russo het from is Russo.

Re: CL Het blue eye lucy
If you're looking at Russo Hets I definitely would buy them through someone like Vin Russo or VPI, since Russo hets are a more subtle "het" leucistic animal I would want to be certain that they're legit.
But all in all...$900-1000 is what VPI is selling theirs for, so I think that CL price is fair if it's the real deal.

Did you find any feedback on him on the BOI or the net in general?

I have no idea on the pricing for a het Russo - but it's bloody extortionate for a rehoming fee - isn't selling animals through craiglist against the rules?
If it is does that indicate the type of person you really want to trust with that much money?

Re: CL Het blue eye lucy
I'll chime in here and state that I've done business with Simon Elliot. He's a local breeder that does have some very nice animals. I got a huge female from him last year and I'm hoping to get some more of his animals this year. Here in WA area there aren't a lot of reptile outlets so there is quite a bit of such things done on craigslist. I see you found him on the PNWHS board, good luck with whatever you decide.

Re: CL Het blue eye lucy
I did not see this post and I just signed up but I sold the Male Het Russo to Simon. I got my breeder male from VPI and he has produced some killer Het Russos. The ones I have hatched have not been subtle and they are super easy to tell. Most breeders pics of them have not shown them off to their true potential. If you have any more questions let me know.
Thanks Ryan Young

Re: CL Het blue eye lucy
I was going to post that I knew of two people in that neck of the woods that had het Russo's; Ryan Young and Nick Mutton.
But it looks like Ryan beat me to the punch.
