Why MorphMarket?
MorphMarket is specifically built for buying and selling designer animals, which makes its search much more powerful than other classifieds forums or generic e-commerce sites.
| MorphMarket | Other Reptile Websites |
| Optimized for all devices | Difficult to browse, especially on phones and tablets |
| Most ads are of individually pictured animals | Stock photo represents type of animal for sale |
| Precise search matches against each animal | Multiple-animal ads generate false matches (A search for "lesser ghost" matches ad with a "lesser cinnamon" and "het ghost") |
| Many phrasings work (e.g., "bumblebee" or "spider pastel") | Only exact words in listing |
| Each posting displayed once | Many duplicated postings |
| Type morph or gene names in directly | Scroll through very long lists of genes and select to describe animal |
| Searches for het, pos het, super, and visual trait classes understood | Not possible |
| Filter by sex, price, genes, # genes (more coming) and 10+ ways to sort | Few supported if any |
| Result pages highlight key info like price | Must click and read each result to check |
| Reptiles for sale and sold are separate | Current ads mixed with outdated ads |
| Create many individual ads in seconds | Individual ads for entire inventory take hours to create |
| Update your ad only when item is sold | Ads must be continually reposted or bumped so that users will still find them |
| Seller homepage and inventory management | No support |
| Thousands of ball pythons for sale | Impossible to tell |
| Email alerts of BRAND new animals | Alerts (if any) include re-postings |
| Locate breeders with Google Maps | Right... |
| Built in Ratings System for actual transactions | Other ratings systems let anyone rate you even if they didn't buy |
