Those were the real deal. A fair amount of them came into the states in the mid 1980's and Ric got some. They were really expensive when they first showed up. Going on an average of $300 apiece. The originals were snagged up quickly. However, the guys that bought them appeared to the only people interested in them. The price of them and the babies was soon down the toilet. I remember guys at reptile shows in the late 80's and early 90's would sell out except for the Cape Kings and they were the cheapest thing on the table
I remmeber that to. And then seeing them drop in price and sitting on tables.
I just think people just didn't know much about them. They could have been as common as cal kings in S.D. and covered a large area.
I wonder if people just never connected to that king because they really didn't know what they were or the history, location etc. ----- www.Bluerosy.com
