Sale phrases that bug me !!!

So If I was to sell a Aussie GTP! What am I to write in the add???

Some of the thinks people have come up with in the thread are just silly

Id expect you to prove it or if you can't, admit that you pilfered it out of the wild
Can't have your cake and eat it.

I liked the new morph "chocolate diamond" for sale a while back , called chocolate as they were brown on hatching ......

Thats classic... not too much different from the hypo coastal situation

"typical water python or jungle python temperament"

what exactly does that mean as all my waters and jungles have great tempers??

Lewy, I know it's not clear - but what most people are talking about when they refer to things like Aussie GTPs, striped animals and things which do occur in some collections is animals which are very obviously not what they're supposed to be. For example, striped animals with multiple breaks, pure Aussie GTPs with un-Aussie characteristics etc.

LOL yer thanks Kersten I do get what people are saying and I too do get a good giggle out of some of the for sale adds and think to my self they should become a sales person with the amount of dribble in there ad

I got to agree that "a lot of sale phrase" do get thrown around:lol:

There was a bloke some time ago on herptrader that had advertise Blue GTS for sale but when I got there he was clearly NOT blue and this was a person that also didn't want to put pics up because of a broken camera All I could do was laugh

Cheers Lewy

Oh you've just reminded me of another....that being the blue GTS that are only blue in those areas between scales....in other words like every other GTS :lol: The all over blue ones are just stunning though.

Anything written by 'Weezer' ....not having a go at him at all, but are you a used car salesmen mate? You make me want to buy your animals when I dont even have an interest in that particular species at this point in time lol

"will breed next season"- umm, tried last season and they didn't.....
"Proven breeders"- umm, no they ain't. Some people forget that people know what they have bred.
"from a disease free collection" what the advert should read- "everything is snuffing it, gotta get cash for what is still breathing"
