im down in banbury and our reptile shop is very reasonable, to be fair the shop owner did say she was going to raise the price soon as there listed at a lower price than trade so is that a good excuse to get one :) i think so :P

If you haven't done so already I'd ask to handle them both. See which one *feels* right. They are very different snakes to keep.

If you haven't done so already these sites may come in handy:
