I looked over BHB's sale stock at Tinley Park NARBC and I didn't see any mites, though granted I didn't ask to pick any of them up. I only looked at them through the plastic containers.

I've heard the same thing you have, though, so maybe there's some truth to it.
That story is all over the Internet and I've heard it multiple times, anyone to believe that story has a peanut brain... If a snake had that many mites he would have not shipped it, and for all you know the shipment was shipped with other reptiles and got mites that way, there is alot of things that come into this story and to be honest why risk reputation when selling an albino for him is pocket change.
