Purchasing online?

[Kjewell89]

Okay, so I'm wondering about everyone's experience purchasing their bps online as opposed to expos? I've looked at various breeders sites and am wondering if that is another option I should consider if I don't find what I want at local expos.. Thanks!

I have always had a good experience buying online. Just do your home work on them. There are also some great people here to buy from as well.

Ive done plenty of business online with reptiles, never had a bad experience yet. I used to raise cornsnakes(many of which I got online), but now have leos and all my leos are from various online breeders.
Recently got two little turtles from a Florida breeder and they are perfect too.

I've gotten two snakes online and things went great! As long as you buy from the right people everything goes according to plan always check the Board of Inquiry on Fauna Classifieds to see if the person your buying from is good to do business with or not.

Thanks for the info! I've been looking on Fauna. At least I know I'm looking in the right places haha

I just got my first mail-order snake, and the whole thing was a wicked cool experience. I ordered Wednesday, confirmed shipping yesterday, and got the snake a few minutes ago. It was almost too easy - definitely nothing to discourage me doing it again.

I'll take some real pictures of the little guy in a few days. He was understandably pretty freaked out. No biting or musking, but reading to crawl into a hide and be warm.

There are some excellent sellers online, and there are a very few scammers, criminals, etc. Do your research, check feedback, ask for references, and don't be afraid to ask questions.

I've had four visits from the FedEx Fairy and every time the process was very smooth. The only thing I do differently from most is I pick up at the hub as my packages are usually ready when it opens at 8:30 a.m., so it cuts a few hours from the snake's in-transit time.

Online is the best way to find the exact snake you want. Just check the boi on the seller. I've had 5 of mine flown in. Every transaction went fine.

I as well have purchased "the one" online. I'm very picky about the morph quality I add to my collection so I do research the seller. There are also, many great breeders who are small time and have very little reviews but offer quality and guaranteed animals that are just as good if not better than some big name breeders.

I have bought at least eight reptiles on line. So far all the transactions have been great.
