Yes, Greg Maxwell states that you shouldn't buy from the internet or at the show. This is one of the first things he outlines as an important step in successful keeping and for a good reason.
He is guilty of categorizing here, keep in mind that it is very possible for you to find a reliable breeder online. The task is to ask questions to the seller and find out whether or not they are legitimate breeders.
As far as shows go, I wouldn't get one from a show. Find a local breeder (be very choosy) and establish a relationship with him/her. That's the absolute best way to go about it.
