>>The main thing to remember is something is only worth as much as someone will pay for it. On CL people use the excuse of not being able to house a Ball python as they do for Burmese. Just because someone wants 1000 dollars for a python does not make it worth that much. In CL case I doubt they ever get that for a Burmese unless they found the latest person to fall of the ol' turnip truck. My friend got a albino Ball for free as were my last 2 Jungle Carpets.It goes without saying the two different types of people selling on CL. Local breeders who know what they are selling and the pet owner which may not.CL can only be a marginal measure of the average or slightly above average layman does with their animals.

Absolutely true.

Unfortunately, it is the exactly the "marginal", "average layman" (and below) who will be likely to dump their snakes when the care and/or expense get to be too inconvenient for them.
