Reptile/pet stores make their money on the supplies they sell, not really the actual animal itself ... the more/bigger that they can get you to buy, the more they put in their pocket. It's easy to take advantage of someone that is just getting started and has more questions than answers.

There's good advice on this forum ... take notes and you'll be squared away before you know it.
