    Wholesale or something suspicious?

    Does anyone think this is suspicious?

    Hard to say, but I do know that a lot of morphs have recently taken quite a dive in price. Check it out, could be a real deal

    Or,

    When you enquire he might have had to move to nigeria.

    I'd also check if anyone local to that area had their snakes stolen.

    Dr. Del, that's what I was thinking. $140 for a pastel champagne?

    Deals like this do happen. I got a Queenbee Pinstripe Mojave and super pastel for 400.00 almond with a 4 Bin Rack and a herpstat.

    While they do, if you also got a rack then I'm betting that the deal was local, and plenty of people are willing to sell for quick cash when the rent + late fee is due, with no worries about shipping problems or chargebacks.

    OTOH I'd lay good odds that the seller in the ad listed in the OP will insist on being paid via MoneyGram, Western Union, etc. and shipping you the snake even if it's close enough for a local pick-up... or he's fighting the BP Nidovirus in his collection, and wants to dump whatever he can that still looks healthy before everything dies.

    That's what I'm thinking. He deleted this after I called him out.

    Yes you are correct it was a local add the seller was only an hour away.
