I didn't see the CL post before it was flagged, but my guess is they were selling registration papers (likely ADBA) for about $200 ... correct ?? ... and if so, very dishonest and unethical !!!

The reason people have papers is to have a proven pedigree ... a continuous line of known purebred dogs. With papers, a dog can also be entered in registry sanctioned events that they other wise wouldn't be able to participate in. Additionally, someone considering breeding a dog that is pedigreed and proven purebred ... would most likely only breed to a papered and purebred dog. Just some of the reasons why someone would value papers.
