[QUOTE="MBullock, post: 205607, member: 33994"] If you collect from the wild to sell, here's a good warning: Look out for people that seek to purchase all your adult females- these guys are basically trying to destroy you on the down-low by acquiring your stock. Their intent is to remove you as competition, then all the females you sold them are now their brood stock, and his large customer base will be all the potential customers you lost by selling him said females. Then at that point you'd have to sell wholesale just to get customers. One guy that tried this on me even blatantly tried to get collection locality information from me. Yeesh, it's bad enough he was working me like this, but the cherry on the top is he tried to turn my autodidacticism into his own profit and ruin me severely by becoming direct competition. Be careful! [/QUOTE]
