good answer regarding the math on shipping. I myself always include shipping in my prices. But it does not mean that nobody is paying shipping, essentially my customers pay shipping. It is my job to offer the animals at a competitive price that can offset the price of shipping.

Now as far as the market in ten years.......That comment is quite unclear. I think that from a man that has basically made his name producing some of the most beautiful high dollar morph, the snow boa, it seems odd that he would have such a negative position on the morph market lasting beyond ten years. I disagree.

I believe that many have said that of the dreaded Ball Python market over 15 years ago. I hate comparing the two markets but it is a fact that they are competing.

On a side note during the last year or so there have been many giving up their boa collection for ball morphs......this is a great thing for those keeping boas. The market will generally will bounce, that is its nature.

When money is exchanged from one market to another it leaves a deficit in the market where the money was moved from.

More to come
Bob
