Would you rather buy quality or get someones unwanted pet if it was well taken care of?

I'm talking Colombian Boas. I am thinking of getting one and feel sorry for those unwanted craigslist boas but at the same time I would rather get quality.

I personally want to "rescue" a snake from Craigslist for my next one. I think it's good to take snakes from people that are not properly caring for them. You would be giving it a new home and probably saving it from poor conditions. Just know when you adopt it, it might have problems so you could have potential vet visits and other expenses.
