Ron the Boaphile, however, is a whole other story. It is extremely difficult to get ahold of him. He does not answer email. If you need to speak with him, you need to call. You'll get a paypal reciept for your order, but no reciept or contact from Ron until you get the tracking number for your package. This is, frankly, disconcerting for me. I have no idea where he's at with the rack I have on order with him since I don't have the tracking for it yet (its been 7 weeks now ). But still, I don't think he's a bad guy in any way - I just think he's not the best communicator.

If you don't mind the lack of contact, then I'm sure you'll be happy with the Boaphile. I've heard good things about his racks and cages which is why I ordered one. But the lack of contact, I don't like at all. Personally, I wish I'd stuck with Reptile Basics.

This is just my opinion and my experience. If you decide on the Boaphile rack, I don't necessarily think that would be a bad choice. I just like to have more contact with the company I'm working with and that's just me. You may well feel differently about it. These are all nice racks!
Thanks! To be honest i am trying to stray away from the Boaphile for that reason... NO contact. I can not do that, this may be considered selfish but if I spend my money I expect a reply and contact, especially if it involves waiting. Thanks for the detailed reply though.

I also have a herpstat and vivarium electronics(reptile basics) thermostat and both are great.
Awesome. Can I get a little more detail? Does it stay heated right? And how is the humidity? Thanks for the info!
