The cycle continues..-classic example when the supply is high.
So the inverts are selling like hotcakes. Buyer 1 who happens to pass by an exhibit but was not able to fully understand their theme: "Promotion of the hobby, Responsible inverts keeping, awareness, etc.." - he just finds it cool. Buyer 2 wants to expand his collection and aware that "hobby comes with a price"

was delighted coz the money he's saving for a Fireleg,he now can have 2 and a Smithi too.
So let me share you this(i'll use my copy paste skill here

We can't just put band aid over cancer, get into the roots.
IMHO lang gihapon ni ha, no offense meant to anybody

Sir ur right. Mao jud nay sakit sa kasagarang pinoy. Gusto makalamang sa kapwa and most of us are fond of making short cuts to attain maximal gain. As to seller 1 and seller 2 story nimo sir, dako kaayo na nga possibility nga mao nay nahappen... But sa atong situation sa cebu, and I can 100% assure u this, naay sellers "3" category dha nga they produce their own breeds of Ts ug scorpions but they still respect the values of the inverts. Pwede man gani nila ibaligya nga halos panghatag nalang... I wont name names but these people know who they are. They have my highest respect when it comes to this hobby of ours.
Ang hangyo man lng gud sa tanan sellers is to respect the value of the inverts ug para makaavoid pud na muend up sa irresponsible hobbyists. If si seller 2 iyang goal is to sell low para malupigan niya si seller 1 then negosyo rajud iyang habol sa kani na hobby. If nakuha niya from breeder 3 at much lower price and iya lng itapat iyang price sa price ni seller 2 then at least preserved and value sa Ts ug ang mgpa cool cool lng na hobbyist madiscourage ghapon mupalit kay medyo mahal mahal man lng ghapon. Remember nga si seller 1 iyang gibantayan si seller 2 lng. Wa cya kabalo nga ang mga seller 3 ngpahipi ug ngobserba lng... Kung mapuni na sila seller 3, mao na nang naay bagsak/patag as m/panghatag sale mahitabo... Luoy si seller 2 kay naamong lng...
Kani sir opinion ug halo facts pud ni akong giingon.
Anyway, I hope everything would turn out perfectly fine... Peace all!!
