I just thought a discussion on market values would be interesting to talk about.
The year before I actually started breeding boas(in 2003), the prices I was seeing on albinos were about $800 each, ...the following year, I was all set to start buying on a small scale.
When it came time to buy the market had jumped, and albinos were $1000 and heading up to $1500 each.

I see Ghosts as being very under-rated. I wonder why people are not buying them up? Is it because most are not as clean as they can be? Or do people not see the value in them?

If Sunglows are selling for $5000 each and up ....I think I saw some for $20,000. each....then why do we have the cheap hypos and slowly lowering priced albinos out there.

At some point I would think this GAP has got to change, either sunglows will come down, which I believe is unlikely,...or the other prices are going to go up....which is what I really think is going to happen.

Just wanted to read what others think, so if you have anything on the matter, maybe we could all better understand market trends, and values.

Thanks Andy Federico
