Well, I guess if importers are feeling the "pinch" than that can't be so bad. Does that mean that they are going to leave them in the wild? No, probably not. They just won't be importing that particular animal species if the market is slow.



As far as the hobby goes. Maybe the reason why people are "sitting" on animals is that they may not practice competitive or market pricing. To me I would rather sell something for less than "market" and invest the proceeds into something that does have a higher demand. If that in turn drives the price down to undesirable market prices, oh well. I don't think the large breeders are getting any less for their animals.



Oh...I almost forgot. If anyone wants to sell me a NICE pastel at a good deal...contact me. I won't tell anyone what I paid .
