I probably would have tore into her. The fact that you were a customer and she insulted you in order to convince you to purchase something you were not interested in, is just.....ugh! And the fact that she put the snake around your neck. Now, I am firm about snakes around my neck. None of my snakes EVER go around my neck, mainly because if I ever get a larger snake (even a boa) I never want to be in the habit of having the snake around my neck for safety reasons. The girl should have respected your decline and put the snake back. I would say something to the owner of the store about her customer service.
I'm sorry, when someone comes into the store and tells me they purchased a certain brand I don't tell them that is what poor people buy and tell them our brand is for the rich people. That is just poor customer service.
And red-tails are not too far away from ball pythons in the cost department. I purchased my little female for $100. That is not far from what you'd pay for a ball python in a pet store ($40-60) And set-up is essentially the same. And the whole goldfish comment. Ugh! Not everyone has goldfish or SHOULD have one. Goldfish are one of the most poorly cared for fish in the pet trade in my honest opinion.
