I got it from a pet store in Bellevue. I'm not sure whether it is a Pacific or a Great Plains or if that would matter. At the time I bought it I had no thought of any possibility it might be illegal, being as they were selling them openly at an established pet store.

While we're on the subject,last week at the reptile expo up here one of the dealers had a tank with quite a few rubber boas for sale. Shortly after the show opened the whole tank was gone so I assume the authorities spotted them and confiscated them.
