What type of milk snake is this?

I found this baby for sale on Facebook and had 2 questions. #1. Is this a good deal. The snake, cage, and heat lamp are included for 30$. #2. What type of milk snake is this and what's your experience with it.

I'm no good with morphs but if nothing is damaged and the snake is healthy, yes, of course that's a good deal.

That's a very good deal if the snakes in good health. It looks like a albino Nelson's milksnake. Maybe even a hydrid.

That is definitely an albino (amelanistic) Nelson's Milksnake (L.t.nelsoni). That is a very good deal for everything you got. Except there is no way of knowing if this is what YOU actually have since many types of snakes look very similar to less experienced keepers. Many albino milksnakes would look similar to this. If you could post a pic of the actual snake you are talking about, then it could be identified unless it was a hybrid cross of some type.
