I have never found them to be aggressive, once they settle down they seem to be like most other pythons, some good some bad.

Most captive bred GTP's that I have kept and have seen tend to be good natured, but you always get the odd exception. Big teeth if you do get tagged! LOL!
Good luck with them, put me on your list if your successful next season.

I know they are expensive, but what price are GTP's going for these days?

I was told anywhere from $6-10,000 for hatchlings and double that for adults. It is just absurd what they are still going for here.

It wasn't really luck just more of becoming broke. And my missus put up a big stink when I wanted to spend huge money to get them. She just had to get her priorities right. Snakes,music,beer,dog,and then missus.
