Nothing wrong with getting a CLs boa or even a pet shop boa as long as you do like others have said and check to make sure its healthy(no RI, mites, stuff like that). And definitely ask its disposition although, with the right care, most will calm down even the feisty ones. My big Colombian BCI girl was gotten from a local mom and pops pets shop. They take very good care of their animals and she was about 18" when I got her. Now 2 years later and she is about 6' and puppy dog tame. I wouldn't pick up a random boa though if you are planning on breeding but as a pet, nothing wrong with it at all and you will probably be helping out the owner and most of all, the animal. And like others have said, $50 is about average.
