Quick copy/paste of what I tend to use;

class MyBaseException(Exception):
    """Base exception, probably redundant"""
    def __init__(self, value):
        self.value = value
    def __str__(self):
        #return self.value
        return repr(self.value)

class MyNotImplemented(MyBaseException):
    ## fake so that it is not seen the same as real NotImplemented
    pass
   
class CompareNotAllowed(MyBaseException):
    pass

....
raise CompareNotAllowed("can only compare same types")
