    Congrats! $66 is an amazing price for any size of a pastel :) What kind of giveaway was this? I could use a few of those in my area, to build my collection :D

    I have had the pleasure of going to Ben Siegal's store in Deerfield Beach FL when I was visiting family down there. The staff was awesome and his animals appear to be kept very clean and healthy. I wouldn't hesitate getting an animal from him...my friend actually came home with a pet skunk that day...and he's like a part of the family lol.

    For the life of me, I can never find the bidding page.

    I've looked for hours, fruitlessly.

    :(

    So, I got this girl at the NoVa show, Saturday.

    I loved her freaky pattern, doughnuts, bright yellow and ample blushing.

    Her name is Kelly....:)

    Just curious, how does that auction site work?

    It's not like ballbids or anything (penny auction site) is it?

    Also I couldn't find any info on international shipping... Just curious for now, as I'm not interested in getting more snakes at the moment. (Well I AM.... of course, but I'm not ready :rolleyes:)

    You have to send ben a friend request! And he posts pictures of the snakes on his facebook page, and then you click on the picture and then type your bid in the comment. The person with the highest bid at the end of the time wins the snake! http://www.facebook.com/#!/reptileshop

    OH!!! AND there was a mixup on the redtail, they didn't notice the last bid and said I won it, well I paid for it before the realized the mistake so no I'm getting a het. albino red tail instead! The deal got even sweeter!

    nice! I have to stay away from auctions..i've won 4 ball pythons, a blood python, and a bcc...the black blood pictured in my avatar was from a nerd auction. 74 bucks! they're definitely some great deals out there if you know where to find them. Google people's name before bidding though! I look into them just like i would if i were buying one from a breeder online.

    Yeah that's a beautiful snake! I read into them and got some positive feedback by some people on here. Plus they felt really bad about the whole mixup which is why they are giving me a het. albino.

    Very nice Pastel!:gj: Ben is awesome! I bought several Boas and Bloods from him long before he started his auctions. All were Fantastic! He's actually the reason I got back into Beepers. Here's the Pastel Girl I won on one of his auctions a couple of months ago. (She's even more Stunning in person) :D
