I think the OP has given up on this thread.
I'd like to clarify a couple things, for those still interested enough to follow this. First, I did not accuse him of stealing snakes or even mean to imply that he might have. My original thought was that the SELLER of the animals had very likely stolen them or gotten them through some other illicit means, for reasons that have already been pointed out. When the OP replied with an affirmative answer and a laugh, that's when I thought something was wrong on that side of the table as well. Maybe cultural/language barriers muddied the waters and maybe I moved to a wrong conclusion.
As for the legitimacy of the language barrier, I do think it's legit. The OP is from another country, and probably the only member we've ever had from that country. Certainly the only one I'm aware of. I won't say where because the OP has never said and for whatever reasons, may not want it known. But he's definitely not in the US and not buying anything off of Craigslist. I'd be surprised if they even have anything remotely like CL where he's from.
