well, idk if it's just a coincidence or not.... but he didn't go the the next reptile show in my city after my original post.....
I don't think I've seen him there at all since then...... but then again, I wasn't exactly focused on whether or not he was there, I was more focused on what neat little critters were at the show lol.

Once again, I'll say this much, when I was talking with him, he was really kind and offered all the information he knew about whatever I asked about... he even told me to look up care sheets online to get more info.....

I have seen these false king cobras at other vendor's tables with a higher pricetag (50 for smaller ones-75 for bigger ones) idk.... just all seems too odd to me. Maybe they can sucker some poor chap into buying it... but I'm just staying away from people with cheap "rare" reptiles....
