...with the last post. A year ago I contacted one of the biggest sellers in the boa world (I won't say who) and it took weeks to get a response to each email I sent. When I asked "what's the snake eating?", "how much is shipping and handling?" "how old are the photos on the website?", he responds back two weeks later with "shipping and handling is 10% off"... and nothing else.



The snake on his website I wanted was listed at $2000, but by the time he finally started returning my emails, he said "oh, those snakes are much older now, they're $3000 now" (even though when I originally emailed him the website said $2000). Plus he kept promising to send me recent pics (the website pics were a year old) but kept coming up with BS excuses for why he forgot or didn't have time, so I gave up on buying anything from this seller.



I ended up spending the money instead on a beautiful sunglow female from constrictors unlimited and when I emailed them 3 days later to ask when she was born, mike wilbanks personally responded within 24 hrs.



There are good and bad people on both sides: buyers and sellers. Luckily the vast majority of people I've encountered in this business are honest and responsible people who really care about their animals and their customers.
