quality is a combination of many factors. It starts with an honest breeder, someone who bought good captive bred stock, and raised them well. The breeder must be someone who has all of their animals in perfect health, and takes great care of all of their animals no matter the dollar value.
The babies must be from healthy parents, and be in exceptional health, be well represented, and taken care of. No short cuts.

The above, and a few more things, classify a quality animal for me.

With that as my starting point, I will choose a boa that fits my opinion of ideal out of a group of such quality animals. Depending on the project I have in mind I want certain traits, and will pay for the animal with what I am looking for. However, these traits aren't what define quality.
