    Re: going to a reptile expo this year need some advice

    Expos usually have a list of vendors posted ahead of time: After I picked out the reputable breeders in advance, examined their websites and feedback, and set my budget---my normal questions are:

    1. Can I hold it? (then examine the specimen for abnormalities/mites)
    2. What is he/she eating?
    3. When was the last time he/she ate?
    4. Is that price firm?
    5. Can I get a discount if I buy more than one?

    If I see a price tag that is unusually low on one I am interested: I will ask: 'That is a good price...is there a reason why you aren't charging more?' (usually there will be one). Of course I have also had them forget the 'zero' on the price. That $400- should read $4000-...
