You know, the more I think about it, the more this type of story sounds more and more familiar. I cant speak from personal experience, but have heard first and second hand about many, many folks that have been screwed over by big name breeders who chug along for several years or decades, then POOF!!! Shady deals, bad service, etc., etc. I think the big breeders get too wrapped up into their own egos and are not prepared to take a loss, or loose their status as the "guru" when the youngbloods come in and overtake them with morph development, availability, and other related issues. Some run into financial issues, whatever. I heard of one breeder who was a HUGE name in the corn industry less than 10 years ago who was selling bogus "hets" at high prices and other shady stuff and then vanished.
