    I don't see this being on the seller at all...sellers are responsible for following the laws of their state/county/municipality, NOT making sure that buyers are doing the same. Venomous snakes are illegal to possess, own, or transport over state lines in New Jersey...if someone is found to own a venomous snake, they are dealt with accordingly, and as long as the snake didn't come from Jersey, nobody cares who it came from.

    I think a paper the buyer signs that states that transporting across state lines is illegal would work fine.

    If the buyer SAYS "Oh I'm taking it to *insert other state*" then yes, you'd be an accessory. If they buy it, and sign a paper stating they understand it would be illegal for them to transport it across state lines, then I think you'd be covered.

    We might ask USARK or the Burmese Python Initiative about a 'legal form' for sellers/breeders to use for in-state sales. Or if someone wants to get a lawyer to do so on their own to share with the reptile community?
