So? A Bentley and a Honda Civic both get you from A to B. A certain kind of customer wants to get from A to B in the former. Another in the latter. A third variety may desire the former, but may only be able to afford the latter (and some nothing at all). The prices are set to acquire the greatest profits possible per unit from each category's target customer population. Each customer is only entitled to what that customer can financially manage to adequately cover. A customer has every right to wish that the Bentley was set at the Civic price and not buy one due to finances, but a Bentley dealer has every right maintain his price at the elevated mark which will still attract the customer who is willing to pay what he is asking for it. Tortoises are not very different in this manner of relationship.

They are worthwhile to me, though, both as a neat pet and as potential breeding projects (my animal is poss het for Sunset Hypo and for Ivory and I keep projects of both of these in the two parent species, so my situation may be a bit atypical). |
