Not gonna lie though, that a seriously gorgeous bud they have there.
But also, I really hope nobody was dumb enough to buy those
How many pictures of supposed bud belonging to any given seeds sold by supposed breeders aren't gorgeous?

Something is only worth what it is payed for. Which means, dumb asses out there are paying for it.

There's a local bong shop that sells $300-500 packs of beans in paper envelopes and they have all sorts of bogus information on them one was like G13 x 40 yr old Skunk. I asked the guy if the Skunk dad was kept around for that long and he said the seeds were made 40 years ago and that the Skunk is the mother. I asked him if the seeds are 40 years old what are the germination rates like and he said they're perfect still because they were kept in a fridge.

Wow, time machine buds. You need one to get your hands on a 40 year old g13 plant in a time when there was no g13 yet.

The more informed people become, the less power these assholes will have.
I'm a huge proponent of the philosophy "overgrow the planet". I don't care if you're a pollen chucker, a meticulous breeder, or anyone in between, the value of this plant is most certainly not in its seeds, and people should recognize that.
That said, for those who respect it, and are actual breeders, I believe its fair to be paid for the work it takes to stabilize specific strain characteristics.

I'd pay an unheard of amount to a breeder that does something I want. I've found a couple that do me good at cost which is a fraction of what I'm willing to pay. I and my close friends who are in this "industry" don't have the same goals in mind to the average grower, there's not a lot of answers these days for someone interested in quality genetics that are still diverse enough to work with. Some people think this is some hippie bullshit but if you look in any real breeding your stock is everything and having the building blocks as far untouched as possible is gold.
Chimera and Mr. Nice for different reasons IMO are the current "future" of breeding. The amount of work Chimera does for a Canadian for what he charges he's a fucking saint, the guy has blessed many people in my life with something money can't buy. There's others I like but I'm not as comfortable selling them up.
I'm not talking up Mr.Nice anymore since Neville seems to do that and enjoys it over at their forums. He's also a very sharp tool.
