    I have no dog in this fight, but I have to chime in.

    How is Brian being “upfront” with free shipping by not telling you about the exact same increase in price to cover the “free” shipping? In my book with over 20 years in retail/wholesale at all levels, he is clearly back dooring you, far from being “upfront”.

    Some may consider this shady or unethical. Me? I think it would be better to advertise the product at $20.99 shipped and drop the “free shipping” claim. That way I can appreciate his change in the pricing structure. But to turn it into a marketing deception is just wrong.

    Folks that consider this shady/unethical may not buy any snakes either. To me, his gambling snake sales as well.

    I do agree with you that the no tax is pretty sweet!

    That’s my view from the saddle and worth what you paid for it.
