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.

If memory serves correctly that ad used to include "genetics guaranteed for life" and we all know who that is. I could be wrong and probably am but I dare speculate if those arent some of the animals floating around with questionable genetics...not that JF did anything wrong, just possibly a victim trying to regain his possible loss.

William,
What's puzzling is that I contacted him/her inquiring about them and never heard back. What you suggest is possible. Maybe "JF" read learned of the other thread dealing with piebalds. One way or the other I hope to get a reply, it's always nice to be on top of who breeds what and what's the ungoing market price for proven morphs.
Thanks.

I finally got a reply today. The pythons are actually being sold in Canada. They are from the Kahl's bloodline.
Thanks.

Thats great news that Jeans straight up! Glad to hear he wasnt one of the folks with questionable animals. Sucks to beat hell that you have to meticulously inspect the background of every single animal before buying it. >={-

This gets better
This guys name (supposedly) is Jean Francois Hammel and is in Montreal, quebec. I contacted this guy because he said he had a male albino ball python on a wednesday in march. He said it was sold to a local buyer on Sunday. The ad was placed on MONDAY!!!! He constanly changes his story and is now, two months later, looking to buy a albino ball python!!! what is up with that? Just wanted people to know.

Dave sign your full name so your post won't get deleted.
It would be truly unfortunate if you were right and your post got deleted.

Well hopefully he will come back and post his full name, but if not I guess I will sign my name to a piece of hearsay.

ok, this may have nothing to do with this guy at all, but i may as well ask..
i saw an ad today on ks that i'm very interested in, posted by an 'EK'. no name other than that, and i haven't received a reply yet, but it's only been a few hours.
it's probably nothing, but i'm suspicious of people who don't at least give me a name i can search, especially after reading about another advertiser only using initials..
man i'm paranoid.
