With the ban I have thought about this somewhat too: I believe a lot of people will be rushing in to buy a certain snake that is already on the ban list or might soon become on the ban list without truely being ready to take care of the animal - they want to get it NOW in case they won't be able to later.
I suppose all I could hope for is that if someone is new and HAD done their homework to just come and ask any and all questions they can. They won't be pointed in the right direction if they don't speak up and ask for help. It peeves me more to see people not want to LISTEN to good advice and continue doing things in a "wrong" or not as good way.
