    Albinos

    I'm trying to save up for a albino at the vegas expo next month. Looking for a male. Does anyone know a price range I am looking at? Is there anything special I have to do to buy one at the expo? Or just hand them money?

    I think males are going for around $300-$350. Some take cards but not all, so make sure you have the cash. Nothing special, just hand over the money, and if you can ask for a receipt! And make sure you grab a business card in case there are any issues.

    Some times there are show prices. I picked up my female albino last year at white plains for $325(ks prices were 400+). It all depends who's selling the animal, some breeders will even drop prices if you seem really interested(aka look at the snake for a long time, then leave and come back and stare more then They usually start dropping some prices)

    Depending on the breeder, albino males I have seen from $325 to about $450.
    Bigest thing is to make sure it is the one you want and there is nothing visibly wrong with it.

    it varries from vender to vender but they usually go for 300-350. At a show you can prob get one for 250-300. Just got up and find the one YOU like. Once you find that one talk to the person in the booth. Prices arent set in stone and most vendors are willing to work with you some on the price.

    Some take cards, some do paypal accounts, others do solely cash. Cash is best but some have other options as well.

    I don't know about the expos in your area, hopefully bigger then most of ours here. But the expos I have been to had at most 3 albino balls and they sold pretty quick. The lingering and coming back method can work well but if your not careful it can backfire when you come back and it's gone.
