3). Ask for a picture of the snake on the scale. I've seen a lot of people get ripped off on weight.

4). If paying through PayPal, use a credit card. It's easier to dispute with a credit card if something was to go wrong.

5). Ask what the snake is eating, how often, and if feeding charts will be provided.

I can't think of anything else right now. I've never bought online yet.
That is great. Thanks alot for the quick response. I've got some of that: The breeder is Bob Futo, and from what I saw on the BOI he has a great reputation. Eating f/t raw pups hatched in december and is 185 g. Does that seem reasonable? Will definitely ask about the feeding chart and the protocols for arrival condition
