Show vs Internet Prices

I'm thinking about going to a small reptile show in Arlington, tx next month. I'd really like to get a better thermostat, but also was wondering how show prices compare to online? Is there much of a difference, I'd love to get a esser female, Voldy needs a girl friend ;), and a couple of morphs I've been eyeing. Most of what I've been seeing is in the $350-500 range.

I've never been to a show and I think it'll be fun. I'm really excited for the big show in Feburary though :)

Sometimes you can get better deals at shows. You need to know the pricing of what you want to buy before you go to the show. Remember, when you buy at the show you do not have to pay for shipping, which adds cost. The other advantage of buying at a show is you get to see the animal before you buy it.

I'll be at the show next month hopefully getting a pair of fires or orange ghosts :D

ive found people at shows are sometimes willing to haggle a little on prices and some are not. to me prices seem to be about the same at shows and the internet. there are deals to find in both places, just depends on the seller. if your in the arlington area, you should check out the NARBC show in feb., there is always some pretty cool stuff and some pretty big name breeders.

I have found animals are almost always cheaper at the shows IF you know their range.

Hardware on the other hand is almost always overpriced a ton:O
