Do you think €150,- for a tessera het snow and stripe female is a good price? Thinking of purchasing one (still in love with tesseras) but as I'm a student, I have to keep a close eye on my balance :P

These are the two hatchies I would probably pick from if I were to buy one :)





So, my questions are - do you think it's a fair price, and if yes, which one would you pick? :)

I've seen those advertised, and was very close to buying them, but I already have 2 Tessera! £150 is a brilliant price for them, considering most normal Tessera's are on sale for £180. Plus Snow stripe as hets will be good fun to breed some interesting babies (If you have a snow stripe!)

It's a good investment, as the price won't change too much next year in comparison to this advertisement. Plus they've got nice clean stripes these babies :)

Oakley - that's the best part for me, I think. I have an anery stripe het amel to match with one of these in the future, so that would lead to 16 possible phenotypes :D granted, it wouldn't give me as many snows, but I love amels, aneries and normals as well, especially as tesseras :)

That's a great price. Thinking from a common sense point of view the bottom seems like a better option as it has fed more reliably so far. However, I actually prefer the top one, I'm not sure why...

I'll be getting more pictures in a few days. The seller fed them recently so she won't disturb them until it's digested and then she'll send some more. Can't wait to see them and make a choice. I have to say I'm also inclined to pick the second one because of the nice feeding, even if the first one seems to have brighter colours (and a scream mask on the head!)

Bit of an update on the thread - I had told some of my gaming friends (yes, I'm a gamer), whom I only know online, that I was getting this snake. We've been doing this birthday pool sort of thing for a while now, and while my birthday isn't until dec 18, they decided to chip in for a rather large amount and help me pay for this awesome little snake. Still can't believe it! I certainly won't have any trouble paying for this little wonder.

I've asked the seller to hold on to snakey number 7 for me, and I'll pick her up in Houten on the 2nd of December <3

Thank you guys for the great advice :)

I'm mainly a fan of "old" games that require teamwork. For instance, I love to play one of the oldest mmorpgs out there, Tibia, or a pretty old shooter called Wolfenstein:ET. Lately I've also played League of Legends quite a bit, I like how much depends on teamwork there :)
