I have to say that I really like how this site is making others aware of all the flippers out there. I honestly did not know much about many of the names popping up as flippers. I also didn't know the business practices of these guys. I'm more of a boa guy in the process of turning a ball guy. I don't think we really have the same problem in boa morphs. Although, I could just be naive on this.

They are every where Boss... it does seem to be more prevalent with the balls but I think that is because of the popularity of them right now....

Yeah I think its just a question of numbers and supply/demand. Not nearly as many boas being produced as balls. And the market isnt as big. With the exception of a few most boas get pretty big which elimnates a lot of people.
5' seems to be the cut off. Maybe 6' if they are slender bodied. After that you lose a lot of people who just dont wanna deal with a huge snake.

I've learned of a few flippers and scammers since being here. I to like how the site stands up against them. Working to stop flippers and making others aware of how they work. :rockon:

We need a running alphabetized list that contains a link to the thread about them. Each time a new scammer / flipper shows up, a mod adds them to the list.

that why i think we should have a thread of shame so whsome one does check some one out they can put it up if there flippers or scammers and we also should have a thread of fame for the ones that are good to deal with
