View Full Version : I made the worst decision ever.

I passed up the chance to get an albino boa for 400. It was originally 600 but after going back to the place 3 times, and talking to the guy for an hour he knocked it down because he could tell I wasn't going to put it in a box and ignore it, but that I was going to show it off. My friend talked me out of it. I'm just hoping when I go back that he'll still have it. I doubt it, but it's always better to have hope. I might just need a better friend.

Maybe not quite the "worst decision ever", but its up there lol. I can't believe how the prices on albinos have dropped. I remember when they were over $1000. But anyway, hopefully he'll still have it when you go back. Good luck!

I prefer buying Hets and then when your first clutch comes around, boom, there's your albino (hopefully haha).
