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.

There are plenty of people in the USA to get these pythons from. Sounds funny to me.

Let me me know if he offers a 6 foot virgin piebald female. I might consider going for her instead of buying from Peter Kahl. 
Regards.

If someone emails him and gets the typical nigerian scam response, please post it here so he can be banned.

I e-mailed him, and asked for details, he got back to me with this:
"HI James
thanks for your reply,the prices it $700 but will
love to know what you an offer.
regards
sopo"
"To Which I responded with: I am not sure what I could offer at this point. I would need to know its sex, age, and if it has ever bred. I would also need to see a pic. Can you provide me with these things? If so, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
James"
I feel kinda bad leding him on if he actually has this, but something tells me he does not. I guess I consider this a necessary evil. I hope I am wrong.

Well Sopo got back to me again, and there is a slight problem with this Centrillian Carpet Python he has for sale. It seems that it is actually a $700.00, 18 month old male Burmese Python. Here is his reply to my second inquiry, and a link to the pic that he sent me. I can forward the actual e-mail to you Dan if you are interested.
HI Sir
it is a male python,it is 18 months old but has bred
once,i have attached a pic of it.
regards
sopo

Anyone recognise this pic, I doubt if he even owns this snake.
I tried to get an IP address, off his e-mail, but I cant seem to find it.

Wow, thats one cool looking carpet python! Where can I purchase mine? Must be a new morph.....lol Okay at this point, I would ask if he gave you the wrong url, dont tell him why but tell him to check the pic of it and figure out why its wrong. This is starting to look ugly, I must admit - now ask him if he has any leucistic burmese pythons for sale and how much his pricing is.

Actually, he attached the actual pic to his response. I just do not know how to post pics here, so I posted it on my the photo gallary ot Bluetongueskinks.net, then I got the url and posted it here. Here is what I sent back to him.
Wow, nice snake, where are you located? What forms of payment do you
accept? He is a big python for only 18 months of age. What are you feeding
him? And how long ago did he breed? Any more pics of him? I want to show
him off to my friends!
James
I am starting to feel less guilty about messing with him at this point...

Hey tripple hets have you looked at your name closely lately? How about mine? I just noticed that you have the same name as me. That is pretty funny (I think...)
