I deal a lot with QPWS, and they have no juristiction over selling of personal products, only reptiles as long as the reptiles are clearly marked that they are not for ale and at the opposite end to the reptiles, there shouldnt be a problem. I f they did have juristiction over selling of reptile products then you would need a license to sell reptile products in a shop which you certainly dont. Dont know who your dealing wiht at QPWS but I think thye are taking you for a ride.

Just what I have learnt thru my dealings with the legislation and QPWS.

we had meetings with parks and wildlife at rocky and they had all the appropriate legislation printed out and we couldn't find a way around it.because we have non-commercial reptiles there,they are classed as being used as advertising so we couldn't sell any products whatsoever.thats why queensland pet shops aren't allowed to have carpets or any other non-commercial reptiles on display in there shops,because they can bring in customers and money will be made from non commercial snakes.its a bit nuts and confusing but at the end of the day we couldn't find a way around it and i still have the paperwork and i'm still looking for a way around it.
