The ONLY way to ship right now is through FedEx, and FedEx won't ship live animals of any kind unless you are certified. If they start talking about UPS or USPS, run, don't walk, away from them.

I'm pretty sure I've seen the ad, since I'm on CL here a lot, but if you tell them you've got someone here to look it over, I'm willing to do it, see what they say.

Gale, thanks I haven't heard back from them yet today, guy said he is working and gets off late tonight. I will see if they are up for letting me have someone check it out local. If not, then obviously its not worth it. I will PM you my phone #, give me a call or text whenever you have the chance. Thanks!

To everyone else, thank you for your opinions. I am a stickler for saving money. I don't like to pay full price for anything, so I shop for deals, and as sad as it may sound, I try to find people who are less fortunate or in desperate need of money. I find college kids are a good place to pick up animals that need very minimal as far as care beyond normal, at very reasonable prices, because all they want is beer money. Since I don't drink, this is where all my beer money goes

Granted I do gamble a little by buying from people I don't know, aren't reputable, and have odd situations such as this (can't take pics), but the truth is, if it saves me money, I am up for it. I haven't been burned yet. I know it will happen eventually, but until then, I will keep doing what I do lol.

Do they have a Snake Keepers Anonymous? Maybe I need that and some gambling help who knows
