Fraza
I suppose it's useful to sell birds but I'd definitely not buy, wouldn't know who I'm buying from and would they be genuinely there own bred birds,
Yes I suppose that occasionally one might get lucky on these sites and pick up something good but I feel far safer in buying birds off of people who I know or know of and especially if they've got a very good reputation for there birds,
like wise people come to me for the odd few birds etc and to share and and discuss knowledge,
A lot of it is all about trust and reputation amongst people and most of whom are often freinds
I can pay a lot of money for me birds as mentioned often between £150 - £300 each and occasionally more and definitely wouldn't like the thought of buying and paying out a lot of money if I didn't know nothing about the person and more importantly where the birds actually came from,
Also remember that there are a lot of dodgy birds that float about through various bird set ups aswell as bird sales and what have you,
With expensive birds we generally have to be on our toes and watch out for anything that seems dodgy,
Remember if yer buy from someone who you personally do not know and know nothing about under no circumstances allow anyone to know of your location
