I've just come back from visiting Darren and have seen some of the stuff he's recently brought in. Believe me, it's amazing!
Pity I didn't read your post before I went as I could have saved myself a few quid!
Just for the record, I don't believe the Ball python market to be overstocked but there are some good deals to be had if you know where to look.  |

must be saving pennies to buy a morph, and is trying their best to persuade others not to buy until the price drops (which won't happen, and then he gets the morph he's after ) Very analytical i am  |

i think there maybe some truth in it i think some of the morphs will come down by alot i have already seen spiders for £499 albinos for £599 look how much these morphs were 2 years ago i have even seen bumble bees for £1500 i think higher end morphs will still fetch high prices but the question is is how long
The more new people start breeding the lower the price will become albino burmese pythons 10 years ago were £10000 now you can pick them up dirt cheep |

Fair points, but I think that a royal is a bit more easier to house compered to say a 12-16 ft burmese. so will hold there prices a bit more. |

nothing what so ever about size its about supply and demand you could argue the burmese market has been flooded due to the size of there clutches being higher than that of a royal but as you said rad alot more people are keeping and breeding royals because they are easier to house the more people breed the more the market gets flooded and the cheeper royals will become |

I'd say they might have been flooded earlier, as well, because there's less demand because of their size, and the potential to cause harm. |
