Hello,
Has anyone done business with Brandon at BPW Reptiles in St. Louis? Email and fauna user ID is
bpw1@charter.net
He was using my friend's photo (Ruben14) on a recent classified ad located here:
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?t=181876
I noticed this just by chance when I recognized that poss het sharp since I had bought a sibling and it was one of the photos that had also been posted on the KS ad.
I sent Brandon a PM asking for an explanation. I wanted to bring this here as a heads up for others. I'm not saying he doesn't have the animals he mentions but anytime someone else's photos are being used that makes it suspect. Hoping he can explain.
here's the PM I sent:
Hello Brandon,
heads up-
in your trade add for the dh coral sunglows, you posted a picture of one of Ruben's boas as your own. I'll be putting an inqury on the BOI (not a bad guy thread, an INQUIRY) so I'm hoping you can come by and explain why you had used a stolen photo.
Thank you,
-April

Thanks for your time,
