That's why every time someone comes onto a forum patting themselves on the back for the "good job" they've done by "rescuing" an animal from a dreaded pet store, I, as well as others in the hobby(s) tend to jump on them. It's all a gimic to get the gullable to spend money.
As far as I'm conserned, getting a pet, be it a mammal, reptile, invert, fish, whatever, from a chain pet store is the same as getting a kitten or puppy from a back yard breeder, puppy mill or a "free to good home" ad. :mad:
