Reptile Basics or Boaphile?

[Skiploder]

These two rack systems are in my budget if I buy piece by piece. Any opinions on one over the other? The Boaphile racks claim to have self-extinguishing materials and I like the thought of reduced fire risk.

RBI makes their racks out of the same material - as does AP and others. PVC is self extinguishing, der Boaphile has taken this generic property of PVC and has turned it into a selling point while the others haven't. Hence many people mistakenly think only his special and magical racks are self-extinguishing.

The Boaphile is widely known for not returning calls and e-mails. In fact, I've lost count of the number of threads discussing his crappy and indifferent customer service.

His racks and cages sag overtime. In most of my sweaterbox racks that I've owned from him, the bottom drawer becomes useless - even when placed on a flat, level and non-carpeted floor.

Both AP and RBI make very nice products that are also self-extinguishing and the great thing about Rich from RBI and Ali from AP is that they actually return calls, answer e-mails and, in general, act like they appreciate your business.
