Cragislist deals - Any good ones in this list?

I think your assessment on the yellow belly is right, she looks more like a fire to me also. Fingers crossed they work out for you.

Was there a reason given for the low prices?

Well, they appaently have a business building custom cars and the business is taking off so they've been traveling around the country a lot and just don't have time anymore, they needed to get rid of their animals quickly hence the lowball prices.

Me too. That pewter seems pretty light colored. I hope there are no issues, congrats!

I won't lie, I'm a little bit upset they never followed through with me. I never heard a word back after what I posted last a few pages ago. I am glad that at least someone could buy some and it turned out to be legitimate.

Congrats on the snakes, they're gorgeous.

I'm glad they were able to get placed, so jealous I always live so far away from these deals...It's good to hear this wasn't something shady and that the snakes weren't in an unhealthy situation.

listing is gone

Just wanted to post an update on these. Guess what? YES, these snakes had mites. Is that a big surprise to anyone? forutunatly since I know proper quarantine protocol, and I know how to deal with a mite infestation, I still consider this to be a good deal. And yes, they are STILL in quarantine.

Are mites that hard to deal with? I mean I can see how hard it would be if you had a huge collection and no quarantine plan, but still. I can't imagine that someone would lowball the price of snakes because they had mites or sell them purely to not deal with treating mites
