whatever i could afford

 

fair enough

I would not pay over £100 for a snake, although there are many i would love to own, i know my money is needed elsewhere. Keeping my collection to kings and milks, always been my favourites and thankfully most are well within my budget.

same here, money needed else where.
And the Oh may well kill me if I were to bring home a snake and say "here isn't it pretty, and it only cost half of the mortgage on the flat!" :whistling2:

 

Well for lizards i have spent alot, but for snakes the most i have payed so far is £50, though i am looking at getting an albino royal python, but i wouldnt for years yet as they cost so much, i agree they cost so much that it is unreal.

If it was a morph i realy love, then i would think about it, but otherwise i wouldnt spend anything over £100, i mean the enclosures cost enough if brand new, i spent nearly £300 last year on enclosures for 1 leopard gecko and 2 snakes! though they are top of the range and have alopt of decor, i would rather have a pretty normal and kit out its enclosure than have an expensive top of the range morph in a plastic box, but thats me : victory:

i know, the set ups cost more than my snakes! :lol2:

Obviously you aren't into snakes that much if the bathroom, bedroom,kitchen etc comes first.....:whistling2::lol2:

Ah but they really really really need doing, so they have to come first!

I suppose the snakes are coming first though, cos I keep putting the decorating off to by more snakes!

hmmm. I dont really like a lot of the morphs, tho I do admire some of their beauty.

What would I pay? depends on the species I suppose, but given the species that I am hoping to gain this year (corn and royal), most I would pay for Corn would be £30 and £50 for the royal.

However I would happily pay £80 for a nice Leo Morph!

Id pay as much as I could afford if it was a snake I wanted. People spend thousands on there pet dogs that live 10-15 years, why not spend the same on a beautiful snake that will live up to 30 years.

 

depends how much money i have after bills,food,going out etc

 

if i could reach all change down the back of my sofa and sell my littlen id go and buy a panda pied royal or a albino carpet :Na_Na_Na_Na:

 

Most people that are spending thousands, and 99.999% of those spending 10's of thousands are expecting a return from their snake through breeding, or at least hoping that maybe one day the snake will breed and offset the cost.

 

Indeed!


I wouldn't spend more than a couple of hundred for a pet (except for one exception......Aspidites melanocephalus - I would spend whatever I could afford...just gotta be able to afford it!

However, I've always wanted a sunglow so I got one for free.........well, took a small initial investment (2K on an adult female Kahl) but ended up with an albino adult female and an '09 male sunglow (and a couple of other bits) after making the original price of the female (and necessary male that I already had) with the rest of the litter....

..best bit is that that was just the first litter. I still have all the machinary required to make more next year....and a couple of years after that etc etc....

would all depend on the snake, but if I wanted it, id pay for it, simple as that.

 

My fav uncle taught me as a kid that if you want something enough and you can afford it then you pay the price...

 

£100 max :no1:

 

If I had a job.....maximum would be 200 or less, depending on how reckless i'm feeling

 

400 max.and thats only if im feeling plush!

 

I wouldnt pay more than £100 for most of those pig ugly royal python morphs!:devil:

 

id go up to say £1000 if it was exactly what i was looking for, most i have spent so far is £500 x

 

if i liked it and could afford it, then i would pay it. simple really!

 

the most i have spent is £700 and i won't really be going over that :whistling2:

 

The most I've paid so far is £125 for my Royal (pastel). I'm about to spend a couple of hundred more on a Pinstripe royal.

There are a couple of other Royal morphs I want because they're sooo pretty and I know they'll both cost me about £600 each. I should be a bit more flush later in the year and I'll buy them when I have the cash so I guess the answer is...I'd pay up to about £600 for the right snake :2thumb:. xxx

 

With me it it would have to depend on what type of snake and how much they are asking for it. If i have the money and i think it is a decent price then why not.

 

Depends on the money i had available at the time, i think 500 is enough for any snake i dont think morphs make a difference really its not like it can do magic or tricks isit a sunglow boa will do what a normal boa would do.

 

I paid £200-odd for Peter (my Fire Royal) would probably pay up to £500 for a mate for him (if and when I come into that amount of cash XD )

 

Most ive spent is £2500 but im hoping to breed this snake and make a little back but I have spent money on pieds etc just because I love the look of them.

 

I would pay whatever I feel that snake is worth for me

 

£99,000,000,000

and not a penny more...i arent made of money

 

£99,000,000,000

all in a days wages

 

The OH would probably convince me into sinking a few hundred into a reptile xD
