I agree with some of your points.

There seem to be more breeders and litters than buyers. In
economics they talk about market equilibrium. This would
appear to be exactly what you are referring to. This
could be a good thing. We as a herping community should try and
do something about importers.

The other thing, which I'm sure is not going to be a popular
opinion; is that there are only so many people willing to pay
$1,000-$10,000 for a boa.
