A pretty well known pet store in my area had them a few months ago for $100 bucks a piece.
An LFS in my area sold baby gators for about a month. In my state, no [ermits are required for crocodilians as far as I know. I have checked local and state laws, and only thing that requires permits are large cat sushc as tigers/lions and bears. Everything else is up for grabs.

and a good point too
can i just dream for a minute that they stayed that small and were legal in cali.............................................dream over.
Very true...they're federally protected. However, since they're so doggone numerous down here in SW Alabama, our city has actually authorized a hunting season of sorts for the alligators. Only 50 permits are issued, and the "season" only lasts like a week or so, and ofcourse, there's a size regulation, though I forgot how big the gator actually has to be (it would come as no surprise I don't participate in this kind of thing).
In Texas you can own gators no permit needed.
In east texas they also have a hunting season for them.
And gator meat is AWESOME.
