I just got back in the hobby after 8 or 9 years and the whole reptile market as a whole is doing fantastic. The popularity continues to grow. Prices do go down with everything but that's just reality. Boas continue to hold their value. Even after 10 years nice looking Suri's are holding their price as well as common Boas. Boas are most wanted like Balls because they are more manageable animals. That is why the Burmese market went quick.....not as big of a demand. It does look like it might be resurrecting with some new morphs.

If you are looking to get rich quick, it doesn't seem like the way to do it. There are so many variables, one of them being that you are dealing with live animals.

There isn't an end in sight with as much interest as there is in the hobby growing every day especially with great breeders making their lines better an better with selective breeding.
