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 he said she "laid" slugs then he is lying and uninformed, because blue-tongued skinks give live birth.

I'm not sure how he worded it, Id have to go back and check but either way she would not and should not look like this just from birthing slugs.
Also just discovered she has mites. Lovely.

In the other thread you just started on the BOI you said:

Would you share a link to the ad in question please?

I can tell from the markings that it's the same skink. Must be old pics.

Yes I believe it's the same skink, that's not my issue, I was sold a $2,000 skink that was represented in the ad as a healthy skink. What I received was not what was advertised, that's my issue with the whole thing.
Now it's going to cost me even more for the vet visit and mite treatment.
Ugh.

Seems like it was the whole "to good to be true" scenario. He sold you a skink listed for $2100 for $1000?

No I don't know why I put 1,000. I definitely paid 2,000. Tried to offer him a few hundred less but he insisted on selling her for more. I definitely thought it was worth it for such a nice looking skink, and if she had arrived at a healthy weight Id have absolutely no issues. (Other than the mites she has)
But charging me 2 grand for a skink that is this unhealthy, is outrageous.

The mites are inexcusable as well.

I definitely was in no way excusing any of this, was just an observation
