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.

Seller beware, here's yet another scam artist. Contacted me about my Aldabra for sale, claims he's in Red lion PA. but moving soon to Boca Raton, FL. Phone # he provided 443-876-8634(Maryland) I didn't play this one out, much to busy with winter at hand.
His last email address header: franksguns717 doged <fridgeqq@gmail.com>
It's all BS.
Don't waste your time, if he contacts you.

I shipped him a yellowfoot to red lion PA address associated with his card. No problems with the transaction as of now and currently planning on delivering another tortoise for him to pick up at hamburg. He has purchased in person from us before as well.
I do not know him but I do know that so far our transactions have gone smoothly.

Mike thanks for your input, but he definitely wasted my time with his BS, and lack of following through with his word, wanting to make my Aldabra a new part of his family...

Lynn do you have emails showing those conversations? Was it price negotiation, or how is it you feel he was not serious?

There was no price negotiation spoke of, emailed from KS letting me know he had 28 years experience with sulcatas and red foots, leopards, yellow foots, radiated, etc. ect.. and I want to make this Aldabra part of my family.
Now keep in mind his email had no comma's, or periods, that to me is one of the first signs of a scam, and how they write.
I emailed him asking for more info, and let him know he'd have to contact me to make the transaction, that never happened. He got back with me after 2 emails to him, and told me his last name only, not another word from him.
Called the # he sent, left a message, no reply...
I don't have the emails, I don't keep emails that don't go anywhere, I have way to much saved, to be concerned with saving nonsense. I did just look for the string, it's gone.

I notified him of this thread, perhaps he will explain the sparse communication. If he is in the middle of a move, that might take up a lot of time.
