Craigs list is pretty much your local ebay. People put up adds on it and you respond to them by e-mail or phone number (whatever they put in the add) if you are interested. Usually you will go to the persons house to pick up whatever it is your getting.

I've aquired pond supplies from there put never an animal, though one of my sisters has. Just be careful since occasionally there are scams on there.

Yeah I look on craigslist.com a lot. But it is not just about herps, herp related stuff is in the Pet section among many other topics.

As said above it is pretty much ebay, local people put up adds on a variety of stuff. In the pets section you mostly will see stuff on dogs and cats, but there are reptile things like tanks, supplies, and animals in need of homes. But it is very rarely free, cheap, but not free.

1.0 bearded dragon (Drake)
1.0.1 leopard gecko (Athena and Apollo)
0.0.1 occelated skink (Zahara)
0.0.2 wood frogs (Cloak and Dagger)

Well, i went on there and found out that they are selling a female beardie and the tank for $149. That is really a cool price for both of them. I am really looking for a snake though. They are also selling 6 leos $10 each and the tank. They dont say if they are all male or female. But the fact that there are 6 and one tank suggests to me that a magority of them are female.

They call me the casmatic amigma. They call me jeff hardy.

ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well herptile there is always stuff like that on there, so don't get really excited and buy everything you see. I've seen much better prices than the ones you gave us on there.

It is always pick-up, you can decline your offer if you see the animals in bad shape, you can also e-mail them, I did once for a cage and said "If the cage is not like the one pictured, then the deal is off" They promised and I got a new-ish cage.
