I was noticing the same thing. I was buying babies last year for $20.00 each, adults for $75.00 to $100.00 for really nice ones. I see babies advertised on here now for $65.00 and up. There's no way I'm paying anywhere near $750.00 for a trio...but I do hope the prices hold out until I can hatch a clutch or three...;>)

:I've noticed that some people are asking outrageous sums for non-locality, run-of-the-mill alterna. What gives? Last year I had a clutch that I almost gave away, the bottom had almost totally dropped out of them. Are these people on the Classifieds just noobs or what? I can't figure how 1.3 non-locality alterna are worth $750, or even how 2.3 are worth $950, any ideas?
:Hey you guys down in the trans-pecos...happy hunting, I'm too busy to get down there this year, I'll be catching Gophers up here in Idaho all summer I guess :(
