Hi there. I am a relative newbie to this site as well. At least I have not posted much before but have been avidly reading it daily. I love the advice and the help that is forthcoming from everyone. I too am in WA and I know that the prices here are a little outrageous compared with the Eastern states. Such a shame (I'm an ex Victorian). My mother had Chirldren's Pythons when I was just little and that started my obsession with snakes. I am about to get my very first couple of snakes. I have a category 3 license and am getting a SW Carpet and a Stimsons at the same time. I am travelling a couple of hours away to get what I want but I think it will be well worth it. I feel that it is important to see the snakes first, handle them and ask as many questions as possible before hand. $440 is a little pricey for a Stimmie. Is it captive bred or wild caught? How old is it? Sometimes it is better to travel that bit further to get something better. That's my theory anyway. After sales service is of the upmost too. You have to be confident that you will be able to care for your critter. I know that I personally have driven everyone I know mad with my incessant questions but the more informed you are the better. I am confident that the people I am getting my snakes off are very good at what they do and are extremely helpful.
I hope this helps. Good luck with it.
