had to laugh

I met a guy today that was selling a couple of pairs of corns.Proven 3 year olds.One couple was anery,the other was amels.My question is what would you pay for these pairs?The reason I had to laugh was how much he was asking....500 for each pair.Don't get me wrong very nice looking snakes,but really for that much.

for a proven pair, that has had 3 years worth of food put into them, plus the cost of heating,substrate, water time and effort put into the snakes, I see personally see that as a resonable price. But I'm no expert either, so I may be a bit naive.

They better be the best anery and amels you have ever seen for that price! Even at three years old.

I wouldn't pay that.

For Anerys and Amels, I would never pay $500. That's heinous. Maybe $350 if they were exemplary specimens. $250-$300 if they were average. By exemplary I mean larger than average sized (above 5 feet), perfect markings, dark balck on the anerys, and not too much white on the amels.
