    Re: Reptile Prime, now with free shipping

    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.
    Someone who gets it!!! Thanks Reinz. I was not knocking the product. I was knocking the whole free shipping scam. I mean if he does something like this, what is to make me believe anything else he says.

    As for no tax, that is pretty normal for me. Whenever i order something online as long as the company is outside Washington State, i dont pay tax.

    And my view of the product still stands. It is decent for what it is. it does have flaws like any other product and i was pointing them out so people who have large constrictors like burms, retics, boas will know this stuff would not be good for them unless they want to have constantly bare cage floors and substrate piled up on the sides of the walls and corners.
