Will he be there to answer your questions before and after the sale?

Will the animal be well started or do you have experience with un-started BP? (This has not shed yet, will he wait till he has his first shed and feed him several meals before selling him?)

What are his terms and guarantees?

Etc

Saving money is one thing, peace of mind when you buy from someone reputable and knowledgeable is another and that to me is priceless!
