Think he knew the real price was 2,500   3,000 was way over the top for a blue lol 

Last year on a facebook forum they was talking about how good these nighthunter whippets were , I said I've never seen them catch a rabbit with out a net around it on youtube , all I got back was you can see them catch plenty when the DVD comes out so I said so I've got to pay to see them catch a rabbit , I still owned Betty at the time so I said I'll show you my whippet run the you show me yours, they kicked me off the forum after that and there's still no DVD out LOL.
