No one is saying to wave cash around. Personally, I haven't had a single instance where I had the money to buy something and was refused the purchase.

After you say you want the snake, they will pull it out at which time you can examine it and address any issues you might have at that time. If they're not letting you examine the animal at that time, obviously something is wrong and i wouldn't purchase the animal.

I think it's absolutely customer unfriendly to deny potential customers the right to examine products you have for sale. As a business I feel this goes against any possible hope to retain customers let alone sell your products. The majority of "potential customers" are insulted by such a practice and most would be reluctant to buy. If you are truly concerned about disease transmission and injury to the animal by all means have a employee take the animal out. Then explain to the potential customer that in order to protect the animals they have to use the provided hand sanitizer and then they have to wear rubber gloves. Hand sanitizer and then glove up will sometimes separate the serious customers from the others. That should be provided by the store ( hand sanitizer and rubber gloves).

I bet if the store was asked the right questions that showed serious interest in the snake and the payment, be it cash or card, was discussed and agreed upon the snake would have been available for a hands on check.
