So, I think you are saying if you want locality, buy or trade from someone you trust. If you do not trust them or others do not trust them (for what ever reason), you may be buying a pig in a poke. Alternative - collect your own, not worry about locality, go for the look you want and locality be damned.
I had not thought about it much prior to someone posting the idea of line breeding for the unusual. If you are line breeding consistent unusual colors, patterns, or morphs you may be technically correct that they are locality lineage BUT, some of us would not consider them true examples of locality animals. Especially if there has not been a confirmed wild caught example. I admit that you may not really care what I think, it is just MHO.
