    Why I can find local spinnerblast for that price all day long.

    Be cautious of a board of director?

    John Mack of Reptiles by Mack. Watson and Mack were unanimously elected at the March 11th Board Meeting.

    Do you have any interaction with him or purchases or base it simply because he has a collection where spinnerblast are not high end to him...

    I am saying be cautious of the quality. I have never seen a Spinner Blast which is equivalent to a Bumble Bee for $150. I go to just about every major show in SoCal (except for San Diego this year) and they aren't priced that low. You are correct, my opinion is solely based on what I saw on the website.

    Look on Kingsnake. Most Spinner Blasts are well over 250. Spinners 200.

    Not here to argue. You know the saying "when its too good to be true......."

    I agree but there are places like BHB NERD and this guy who look at spinnerblast as "low end" regardless of quality and then there is local breeders that sell them for that much cause those are their high end... its subjective. I have a guy with lemonblast local to me selling them for 150 shipped and they are some serious good looking snakes. Im getting ready to snatch one up if I have male snake money...

    Guess I am running into vendors who put more value into it. Lol!!

    $150 for a Lemon Blast sounds very fair (especially for quality ones). I went to the Pomona Show in January, with no intention to buy anything (yeah that never happens. I always walk out with something), and I saw a really nice Lemon Blast male for $200. It was bigger than a hatchling maybe in the 250 gram range. I almost bought it, then I ran into a guy selling a Hypo Lemon Blast male for $300. It was AMAZING. Since I already had a Hypo Black Pastel female, I thought this would be a great guy to pair her up with. Good luck with yours:)

    Thanks... I believe these LB to be in the high 300 low 400g and they are 150 shipped. He is local so I am going to try to do 110 picked up. we shall see.

    Hi Cee Jay, I hope the below takes out any doubts about our pricing strategy.

    From our website:

    Why are your animals cheaper than some of the prices I see online?
    Quite simply put, we price our animals to sell and we sell everything that we breed. Our quality is second to none and you can learn more about some of our happy customers here. We have been in business since 1985 and are continuing to grow our business, based on three important factors:

    1. Great quality animals
    2. Awesome customer service
    3. Competitive prices

    We have two large breeding facilities in Xenia, Ohio and each of our six Reptile departments has a dedicated manager and large team of care technicians that take care of housing, feeding, cleaning and breeding our animals, 365 days a year. This, along with out unsurpassed shipping record has helped us achieve our reputation as one of the very best breeders around.
    Our founder John Mack, is renown industry wide as an honest, reliable, high quality breeder and it's a combination of these factors that has made us one of the three largest breeders and suppliers in the world today. John represents the Reptiles business on the Board of Directors for PIJAC and is on theCDC Zoonotic Diseases Committee. Additionally, we are accredited through the Better Business Bureau with its highest possible rating and offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee on all orders, so you can be very confident that you are ordering, at absolutely no risk, from one of the very best breeders and suppliers in the business.

    I was told by the Petsmart employee in Brocton, Ma that my normal morph that I got there was bred and comes from " reptiles by Mack"! I have no complaints, very healthy and took f/t right from the get go. So I would say that he's great:-)
