I know at a pet store, like petsmart or petco, you have to be 18. Does that follow for Repticon shows? Is it more a vendor specific thing, or does Repticon require ID (and 18 yrs old) to buy a bearded dragon? I'm almost 17, so I was going to go on my own but if i need someone 18 then I can take someone. Its not a big deal, I'm just curious.
I'm pretty sure you enter the show and buy what you want. Some vendors may be fine with it, others may require a parent to be with you, especially if you're purchasing a high dollar item. You could contact the vendors on the list to ask the specific ones you're interested in how they deal with minors. When I used to sell at shows I sometimes would have a minor phone their parent when purchasing from me. It didn't mean anything if they were with a friend over 18, it was the parent that needs to allow the purchase. I once sold 2 dragons to a young man [ I didn't suspect he was under 18 ] He came back an hour later to say his parents only would let him have one, so I refunded.
Ah, good idea to contact them. My parents are aware and don't mind the purchase and I'm currently working on a tank for him as well as a spot for it. So I will have to contact a few and talk to them and see how they feel about it.
You'll probably have a great time. You might look up the specific dragon vendors before hand to get an idea of what they have. I see that Dragonz Down Under will be there.
No, I've never vended or gone to shows in that part of the country. I have seen the website of the one I mentioned + thought the dragons looked good, but I have never seen them in person.
