Wow, sorry you did not get what you paid for, you got a tangerine albino, probably a tremper but we would need a better eye pic. :) Cute gecko all in all

Tremper is a strain of albino. That one is almost an adult male, and pretty nicely coloured, so I'd probably pay about $100 for him. But some others may pay higher, or lower, based on what they like or what they need for a project.

Well i got a pretty sweet deal then coz i only paid around $45-50 for him, im really happy he is Tangerine albino, my camera doesnt pick the orange up on his tail too well but iv heard its 15% of orange on the tail for a CT, but its clear that theres no way near 15% on him, Im just happy he doesnt have albino eyes there abit weird for me haha.

Once my "normal" female has grown a bit more ill be asking the same question.
pretty sure she isnt normal

But thanks for the help here guys/girls and for the nice comments of his patterns and health looking tail i do try to keep him looking nice and healthy :p

$50 is about right I would say. If your gecko had a 15% carrot tail and no spots on the body then itd be worth $100 IMO.

There are different types of Albino (T +/-) and amelanism (lack of black pigment). The albinos in leopard geckos that people work with are an amelanistic albino (T+), they are not the type of albino that lacks all pigment. So your gecko does have albino eyes (I suspect light grey colored with red veins).
