Example, here's a pic of a pearl pup at less than 4". Can you really tell how this pc is gonna look like when it hit 9-10"? 1st glance look like a MM or a cross btw a MM & SP............LoL!
Cheers & good luck in your search bro!
Hope you don't mind me posting a pup pic in your thread bro Marshy.

At least I know how to differentiate a MM pup and Pearl Pup.
Its the differentiating out a Pure Peral Pup with Pearl Sp Pup that's the problem.

I just go for light based ones.
that's what i understand so it's confirmed huh... even if the spotting looks decently nice means nothing right?

the problem with seeing 'parents' is like what bro lincoln said - 'seller you trust'...

light based means ?? because i know what i like in an adult pearl, but dunno how to find a pup that would grow up to be that 'target'.. so stick to MM better??

between an m3 and m5 can!

but between an m3 and m3 sp difficult sometimes!

need to wait until close up then can confirm! must see offset, brake kit, and if all else fails, the road tax disc!

anyway.... so given what's happening to pearls.. are pearl pup prices weaker now, but when they reach 9" or so when it can be confirmed if they're pearl that their price shoot up?

That has always & will always be the problem. To the trained eye like yourself, of cos you can tell the difference btw pearl & pearl SP I'm sure.
Look at the pearl SPs I posted b4.........the differences are there.
Like many have said it b4..........only time will tell whether it's a true pearl bloodline or otherwise.
Cheers!
