Matt Gambrel from Olympus Reptiles recently had a little rant on his youtube channel that got me thinking. Now this is just based on his opinion and my feelings about it as well. That is that while you may feel getting the cheapest at an expo or online may be a great deal it might not be the best option or the best thing for the hobby.
He goes into it really well and while I understand a free market economy, I think getting a snake from the best breeder who offers a healthy snake and great service is far more important than saving a few bucks by buying from someone who just wants to offload a morph.
Just my 2 cents.
That's not to say anything about husbandry items. Last day at expos are amazing for getting steals on enclosures and decor items!
