you know there is a way to do this using the market to our advantage.

Start a Quality Pet Certification company. All you do is inspect exporters, importers and dealers from the country of origin right to the local pet store. In order to get your stamp of approval they must pay pass your inspection (and pay for it). This certification allows them to advertise this fact. Advertise what this cert means and hope that buyers only purchase from those displaying an up to date cert (annual?). It would work for online sales too...I hate buying from someone when I cant see the living conditions of their animals. If you dont have an up to date 'Jobi Quality Certification' I'm not doing business with you. Expand it to all different animals, not just reptiles.

it would work. with enough initial investment it would work.
