I can tell you from experience (see my story above), they do NOT find it offensive - in fact, I think it's almost expected at reptile shows! Maybe it would be tacky at a shop, or if you were contacting them online... but the expos are a different story, and as I said above, they're especially willing to bargain at the end of the weekend. Come to think of it, I've never paid full price for a show-purchased snake.
