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.

MOC Reptiles
Anyone here have any dealing with these guys ? Only thing I was able to bring up was someone upset that they sold something out from under them when they dragged their feet a little too long deciding whether to buy or not.
I juat saw something they advertised on KS I was interested in but the whole idea of MOC being a 'store' where turnover of herps is large bugs me ... I never buy anything from larger dealers , too risky with the diease/health issues. I always stick to dealing with the breeder.
But have to ask what others had to report .
Thanks

I checked out their website, and they seem to be pretty passionate about only selling CB reptiles. I think that says a lot. One of my biggest problems with pet stores is the flipping of potentially ill WC animals.

I would stay far far away from them. I bought two leopards Tortoises and they both died.

Rod, how soon after purchase did they die? Do you know the cause of death? Did MOC compensate you in any way?

There was absolutely no compensation, or even attempt at compensation. It was a couple weeks after purchase. I offered to pay for the necropsy, and if the cause of death was something they came with I could get a refund. He said no. His response was basically sue me, we're a small business and can't afford a refund.

That's really terrible. I'm sure that if they died that quickly, they must have had something wrong with them at the time of purchase. Do you have any emails or texts to post? That would really help show us all MOC's true colors.

What is the length of their guarantee? What symptoms were noticed in what time frame and when were those symptoms communicated to the seller?

I would not make that conclusion based on that length of time unless there is substantial corroborating evidence starting early on.

I don't have the conversation anymore. The symptoms were lethargy and no appetite, and I did report it to him. He said they were most likely hybernating. At this point to me it's irrelevant, I'm just saying I had a bad experience.

We would suggest you to inform yourself about the full story before making certain assumptions, especially from a guy like Rodolfo. Will post below about that.
If you want to know our true colors, you can read other reviews, from mentally “balanced” people, and always welcome to our facility to check how we keep our animals
