So what if i buy snakes but dont turn "right around" and sell them but sell them 6 months later, is that just buying to sell? How do you know how quickly im gonna sell my 20 snakes, what if it takes me 6 months to sell them?
Happens all the time with cars, bikes, guns, etc...and it's commonly refered to as flipping...

Re: does outback reptiles have a good reputation?
ok if you say so.....i dont see your point, any time you buy anything you dont and can't know for sure if the person or company you're buying from is a "Good Guy". You do your research, check out whatever it is your buying, and if you like what you got, then you might do business with the same person or company again. If you are happy with your purchase then you'll probably do business with them again. If you don't you'll go somewhere else. Its very simple, i dont know what you're getting at here, there are no guarantees in life or in business. If you're worried that you wont get what was advertised, then you buy in person, not online.

josh will take care of you 100% always has!
i can attest to outbacks animals. i have quite a few and i can say that everything in the order was smoking hot and way bigger than stated!
outback has some of their own animals and wholesales/resells. this is no secret. either way the animals i got were top rate

Nobody should suffer from the illusion that flippers actually feed the snakes they buy to flip. There is no money in feeding snakes ...unless you're in the rodent business.
Most breeders actually feed their animals on a regular basis ...and yes, it is to their financial detriment to do so. Doing the right thing is frequently NOT profitable.
Re: does outback reptiles have a good reputation?
I had a great experience with Josh @ outback. The animal I originally put a deposit on was mistakingly sold to another customer prior to me calling to finish out my transaction. Josh more than went above and beyond to fix the situation by replacing the said animal with another which is just as stellar as the one I had my deposit on (Anyone that knows me knows I'm super picky about the animals I add to my collection). I was very happy with my purchase and wouldnt hesitate to do so again.
Re: does outback reptiles have a good reputation?
I have no BPs and am not a breeder yet. But on what I've heard and read on this forum is that I will probably deal with Outback Reptiles at some point, the BPs I've seen of theirs are Sweet :D
As far as that Fuana tread those people need to get a bit more of a life and not worry so much about an ACCIDENT. Josh admitted to a mistake and made it right. There is no way that thread should have carried on, and on... and on again. Unless they are all ETs and can't call themselves human, c'mon we all make mistakes.
I look at it this way. If I sell say, rings(BPs) and only rings I'm leaving out a big portion of the jewelry business(reptiles) so why not get some bracelets(leos) form an aquaintance and try to sell those too(traded or purchased). Call it flipping, call it business savvy, whatever you call it, it's done in every business and Outback shouldn't have been ridiquled so harshly.
So I'd buy from them in confidence. You'll get a great snake and even better customer service.
just my :twocents:
