Hey, was just wondering whats the general demand for these guys over east, ive never really seen them advertised over there, maybe once or twice. Are they very high in demand or are there not many around cause their unpopular over east?
Also what the general price they would fetch over there. I know the prices here are pretty ridiculous as with every other reptile lol |

I would love to get some of these guys cause i am moving over east next year, but im not to sure how big a demand is for them. Here they fetch prices from anywhere between $750 to $1200, mostly depending on the seller it seems. But the average ive found looks to be from $850 - $999 |

|  | Yes, that Hix Moderator | Join Date: Mar-04 Location: Sydney | | | I've only seen them advertised very rarely, and for those 'higher' prices. Considering the other Carpets are cheaper, I think most people go for them.
And you'll probably find half a doxzen people whoi would look at your SW Carpet and try to convince you it was an intergrade.
LOL

| | More Nuber then you Subscriber | Join Date: May-07 Location: Perth WA Age/Gender: 20 | | | | hmm thought they might be slightly cheaper over there, so what would u say the demand is like for them, Do these usually sell quickly and are many people usually interested in them, or is the price just too high. |

|  | Subscriber | | | | | i was offered a pair early this year for $1500.00 including freight from w.a. still regret not getting them............

|  | Subscriber | Join Date: Jul-06 Location: Adelaide, South Australia Age/Gender: 27 | | | | I bought the animal from Pilbara Pythons and also managed to get a male from them too. I'm absolutely wrapped with them. I was told they are of Yallingup locality and down the track would like to also get a pair from further inland. I had to get them from WA as I havent seen any available over east or in SA for a while now.
I also know of other people who are interested in getting imbricata, so there is demand for them. | | |
