Around $100 for a good lookin' hatchling. Not including s/h.
A snake is worth whatever you will to pay for it.
 
I've seen them for $40. I personally think $100 is a little steep, unless it's not a hatchling. I usually ask $60 or so for mine.
 
Bear in mind that kingkong is in South Africa, where any type of Corn will command a much higher price than in the UK or US.

I agree with Lennycorn - buy the one you really want. You'll know in your gut if it's worth that much money to you. Think ahead five years; if you imagine that you'll feel ripped off every time you look at it, then don't buy it. If you can imagine yourself just thinking "What an amazing animal", and never remembering how much it cost - then that's the Corn for you!
 
Well a ghost stripe is probably considered more "valuable" than a normal mot here in the states at least - you got anery and hypo, and stripe is a little less prevalent than mot.
But how valuable it *really* is depends on what you're most interested in.
 
I would have to say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you like the ghost I say get it. R500 (is that 500 rand?) = about $65 US, good price for a ghost stripe but a little high for a normal motley. Hope this helps.
 
thanks for the replys i defintly think i,m going to buy it. its a very good looking healthy. one and a half year old female oh and if i breed it to my male normal with no hets will ijust get normals.:poke:
 
I paid about 2x what my hognose was actually worth when I got her, but I wanted THAT SNAKE, and I would have paid a lot more to have her. :)
