Trying to learn a bit more about the market on the hobby.
I get that "looks" sell in most markets in life and when picking out a pet appearance can be a big driver. However I see albino tortoises sell for 31x their normal counter parts and I don't get the math.
I was hoping to get some insight on to the justifications.
I understand what albinism is and its physical appearances involved, but is that all the surcharge is for?
Why do albino sulcatas babies sell for $2500+ when regular hatchlings go for $50-$80 ?
Thanks!
