>>>Joe Blow thinks he can make money selling balls, so he buys a $10,000 pair of mojaves from Big Boy Balls. Joe breeds them 2 years later, and realizes no one in their right mind would buy a $5000 mojave for a "pet." Luckily, John Doe decides he could make money breeding ball pythons, so he buys some mojaves from Joe Blow. And the cycle continues.



OK...in my opinion, you've hit the nail on the head w/ the ball market, but I don't think that's absolutely a bad thing...Picture this...



I bought my snakes from people who breed snakes. I'm going to breed snakes and sell/trade them to others who will breed snakes. When it's all said and done, it's kinda like a pyramid-type system. What's cool about it, though, is that you make some INCREDIBLE, cool snakes, own some incredible cool snakes and have TONS OF FUN!!!!!



I think that's the big deal w/ it all. I don't think anyone's truly believing that they're selling snakes for $$$$$$$$$ to people who aren't gong to turn around and try to make it back...what's great is that it's cool, fun, and it will hopefully pay for itself over the long haul by other people doing the same thing!
