Went Saturday, what a great show! Wall to wall people, I swear it's getting too big for the Ocean Center. I finally got to meet Jonathan Brady(really nice guy) and got to see his latest BCCs. You have to watch out for him in the future, his collection is going to rival CEs.
There was a very nice selection of Argentines there which made me happy. I went there to buy a male from Gus but after standing in line for 10 minutes to talk to him some jerk walks up in front of me and starts arguing with Gus about locals. I talk with the guy that was with Gus telling him that I'm there to buy a snake and he says wait to talk with Gus. After waiting about 15 minutes I said screw it and walked away. These vendors really need to pay attention to the customers. Oh well. I saw a few more people with baby Argentines and decided to go with Ophiological Services(who I've done business with before). I didn't get a snake Saturday(because I was going out after the show) but will next weekend, Eugene offered to give me a tour of his place.
I also purchased a Boaphile 421 at the show and saved $30. They are going to ship it to me in a couple of weeks. Can't wait!
There were some wild Retics there and a great collection of Ball Pythons. They had some nice Albino BPs for $2500 which is half what they were 2 years ago. Maybe in 2 more years I can afford one. Oh, and there were 2 different vendors with T Albino Argentines. Very cool.
Anyways, great show. It gets better every year. I just wish I had more money to spend there. =)

JMHO, FWIW, YMMV.
