Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

You can whine and stomp your feet all you want,that does change the fact that the seller did not want to take a chance of shipping into cold weather.

Mr. Kingfisher, you might consider that it is possible that the seller noticed other red flags that, coupled with quite legitimate concerns about the shipping weather, summed to a transaction that promised to be trouble. The fact that you've started a clearly unwarranted BOI thread is additional evidence supporting the hypothesis that a seller might want to steer clear of such trouble.

Exactly, John Zillmer! Perfectly clear and succinct.

What is the red flag?
He didn't want the gecko SpaceXed to Mars?
It is all a risk!
every shipment!
I have shipped out animals,
all safely,
now I don't do that anymore.
I am not on here selling animals shipped.
This guy was.
Drop the gecko in a box,
hope for the best.
That is what you have to do everytime.
I specifically waved live arrival guarantee.
I'll not sell you an animal
cause I just don't like you
or your manorisms
or your smell
Everybody got the right
to say no
or to start "thread" conversation

That waiver would not be much comfort to a lizard dying of cold due to being shipped when the weather was too cold. I would definitely do business with Alex Hutchison, and I would avoid transactions with Jo Nathan who doesn't seem to 'get' that there are real, live critters involved in these decisions.

Once again the BOI shows us the ones to avoid.

I highly doubt that any reasonable post will be accepted by Jo Nathan Kingfisher so probably best not to entertain him. The gecko may have survived shipment but I'd be worried about his care after Jo Nathan Kingfisher received it so kudo's to Alex Hutchison for refunding and keeping it.

IMHO, if I were Mr. Hutchison, I would be breathing a sigh of relief right about now.

I've had torpored out lizards arrive & revive.
I'm not a seller on here nor have I ever been.
There is view askew on the industry standard
a sort of built-in double standard hypocrisy
sellers protecting the seller interest.
Do your business together then
as you would anyway.
If a gecko shipped here tomorrow
that gecko would likely arrive alright.
We all do business as we choose
as we would anyway.
You like doing wishy washy business
you do that together...
yeah... waived
