Daz, my nephew does, he's training in animal care ATM specialising in reptiles, hes not long left a big reptile dealer in erdington where he worked for 18 months.
He's helping me ATM so will see him Tomoz, he's got 3 himself.
You'll need a viv etc as well, the food costs can mount up as well.

Geckos are cool :)
My Grandma used to have one that lived in the corner of her bedroom when she lived in Gibraltar, it ate all the mozzies

Tbh I don't see the attraction with them, my nephew has a chameleon as well which looks a bit more interesting.

Bearded dragons are that common, I could get you one for free cos the shop he used to work at can't get rid of them I think.
What they do is say free dragon if you buy a viv sp that it looks like a good deal, truth is they aren't worth anything cos they breed like rabbits.

We have a leopard gecko.
It was a rescue/gift but I understand it came from a local bird breeder and not the pet shop.
Some friends of ours who wanted a bearded dragon, after seeing Stella (yes named after the beverage) loved her so much they got a gecko from the local pet shop and have not had any problems.
