Animals that were paid for are just as likely to wind up in bad homes. Just because someone is willing to pay, doesn't mean they are the best fit. It is up to the seller to determine how they feel about a potential home. Most of my animals were free and are not in any way being neglected. My friend got a AKC registered pure bred (with papers) Doberman for free from a home who chained her up, beat her and let the other dogs attack her constantly. I am sure they paid a pretty penny for that dog. Generally we have often found "free" means tons of health issues with ferrets. Fuzz gets insulinoma or adrenal, dump them is often the rule.

Unfortunately I've seen it both ways. My free ferrets cost me a lot in vet bills because they were in bad shape when I got them. My co-worker bought a $2,000 dog from a pet store and when he developed kidney disease at 4 years old she gave him to me because she didn't want to deal with his medical issues. It's unfortunate when animals are viewed as nothing more than a disposable object.
