I am a nut?...........
....really.......sell for whatever.......I do NOT want to set at a show and sell nothing......so why price stuff at maximum prices and wait to sell....and not go down at all.......might as well set prices as low as you can and sell them faster from the start?............people think that at the end of a show you can run around and make good deals.....wrong..the good stuff is all sold before you even get in the door.....trust me.......if it's hot.it's gone.......I have bought out people as soon as they walked in the door on gerbils......the rest of the day ,noone else gets any.I got them all........yes they didn't have many to start with....and same for snakes....people run around and buy at the start of shows then reprice stuff and place it on their tables.and they will not talk or drop prices..they have other plans and places to sell at.......I sold 20 snakes before show started 2 weeks ago to one guy...good thing...people did not buy (as usual) they walk around and use the show as a zoo......thousands of people.......wish they would learn to buy more or go fishing in the winter....duh....too crowded......I sold snakes from $5 and up..I sell opals for corn prices....start at $20 to $80 depending who you are ,how many ,and when you get them ..........feeding a snake costs at least $50 a year......so ....you have a baby amel..$10.........it's now a year old.......can you get $70? NO.......you get $20 to $40.......you lose $30 in time and mice......adults sell for far less than they should around here.....adult pair het charcoal bloodreds.I left them go at $120 a pair........just becase I wanted to get rid of them and because they bought 3 pair of adults......cremes,butters het motley and bloodred het charcoals all for like $120 to $150 pair /trio..........I do not have to feed them or worry about them anymore.........some ate mice some like odd stuff at most times of the year...hamsters and deer mice...snakes are a pain if you let them dictate their diet...and I spoil mine bigtime.........anyways.........
.......like the 6 foot plus name brand jungle carpets at 10 years of age and sold for $130..........and never made a single egg / dollar$ from them..........gone and good riddance......... ----- .......................... ........ .... you think????
