Does anyone ever notice sometimes a certain morph or genetic trait will get talked up real good on the message boards, flattering photos will get posted daily, and after about a few days or week or so, I think I see alot more ads for this or that kinda snake listed?

Maybe I listen to too much Coast to Coast radio at 3am when I cant sleep and I am turning into a paranoid conspiracy theorist? But there are times I actually believe that a group of merchants or clique of breeders are maneuvering the discussions & imagery on the message boards to their financial advantage and this makes me feel like an attempt is being made to manipuate and use people? Then there are other times I believe its just attentive, good business people taking notice & advantage of the buzz factor to move some snakes, which would be very smart of them.

I dont know...maybe I haved to get out more?
