Perhaps it was in the Blue.. Meaning that it was about to shed.

There is a blueish carpet python at a private collector in Joburg.
Not blue like bubblegum, but dark blue to granite colour.
If this is what you are referring to,then they do exist.

Never heard of a blue one like the blue green tree pythons.

The bluish black ones are more common but that is a matter of opinion if they are "blue".

Blue snakes are created when the yellow pigment is missing or reduced in a green snake.

I don't know what I am referring to actually, they are for sale for R8000 pair, "striped blue phase carpet python", apparently only ones in SA...so maybe it is the dark blue/granite.

Ask them for a pic and then post it so that we can all see what this is about.

There are a number of scammers around and this could possibly be another.

If they cannot send you a picture then I doubt that they exist.
