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.

DEWEY and DEWEY Reptiles
I hate coming here but I think everyone should know my experiences. I have ordered from Dewey and Dewey a few btimes before. They have good prices. The first time I ordered, I received my box but was missing a few items that I was charged for. I called them and they resent what I was missing. The next time, the same thing. Each time they were nice and apolagetic and paid the shipping. I held off ordering from them for a while until mid November. I ordered a baby gtp, sand fish, ornate niles, tarantulas, scorpions, cave scorps, chameleons. A typical pet store order.
When I opened the box, there was a dead nile, sand fish, and cave scorp. Two days later we lost the other two niles and two more sand fish. I called and e-mailed and have heard nothing from either of them. I did like talking with them on the phone and I did like the animals that did not die, but I have a feeling I am being blown off. I hope this is not so. I called twice more yesterday and sent two e-mails. I have heard nothing. I wish I could say buy from them or do not buy from them. I am torn as of now. It was about $70 worth of dead animals that I would like refunded. If I hear from them I will post with the outcome. Just my opinion as of now.

I have had dealings with D&D , one resulting in the wrong animal being represented on an ad. Once they arrived It was obvious. It was an honest mistake and was handled very professionally and to my satisfaction.
I hope your situation is resolved soon I am interested in the outcome. So far I have had only good experiences with D&D.

D&D
I have not alerted them. They will not be back until Friday and I hate doing this but I am concerned and sometimes this expidites problem solving. I did state that the animals that arrived and were not sickly were very nice. The gtp was awesome as were the chameleons and others.
I left a message and was informed the scond time they will not be back until Friday (tomorrow). I will talk with them then.

I have been ordering from D&D for awhile now. They have always taking care of me on any issue I had. The key is communication. They are busy just like all of us. Call them and/or email them again I'm sure they would be willing to help.

We use them occasionally for orders in the store. I have had a few problems with animals but nothing more than what I would say the norm is for dealing with a broker/importer. They have always made right on their orders and have never not made things fair. The main reason I don't do a lot of business with them is they for what ever reason have some of the highest shipping rates in the business. I don't know if their account rep with FedEx sucks or what but an average order for me which normally consists of one or two long insulated boxes runs around $125-150 for shipping.
Their animals that do fair well are normally really good animals.
