Stay away! I've seen them multiple times at expos when I lived in Florida. Animals infested with mites, RI, ticks, skinny, lethargic, you name it. If you are still wanting to purchase from a flipper, I can at least let you know that having been to both Ben Siegel Reptiles and Underground Reptiles store fronts and dealing with them at shows, their animals are well maintained. That isn't to say you won't run into issues, but at least they care for the animals properly while they are in their care.
This most recent Daytona show, I even purchased something from Underground, but I heavily quarantined for double the length of time I normally quarantine for.
