I suspect he has no clue has how to ship a snake which to me is a red flag.
Any breeder that ships animals know what they need to ship the snake (box size) and from there if they do not have a flat rate they can get a quote based on the package dimension.
This is the seller's job not the buyer.

Re: Question about shipping - is this normal?
I've only ever been asked when I want the animal shipped, and what address I want it shipped to. It's definitely not your job to contact the shipping company.

Just tell him to do it. If he doesn't then just don't buy it.

Never heard of anything like that.
Sounds like he doesn't know what he is doing - in which case the animal probably won't be packaged properly.
I would not risk it.

Re: Question about shipping - is this normal?
You are in Canada, so shipping is a lot trickier than here in the U.S., but still, the shipper/seller should be the one getting you a quote. Their unwillingness to do that, or being incapable of doing that, is def a red flag.
Reptile Express in Canada is also not the same as Reptiles Express in the U.S. Sam's company Reptile Express in Canada has been around for a while, he could not have been thrilled to see another company glom his name, nearly to the letter, doing the same type of business in the same industry. That causes a lot of confusion.
I remember when we were still breeding as Pro Exotics, working hard to build a reputation and customer base, for 20 years, and a breeder down south thought it would be clever to become "A&B Pro Exotics", or whatever the two letter addition was they called it. Dirty pool mister, dirty pool.
