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.

The uros did survive this but the female is very thin and she has the crusty lip disease that's common in uromastyx none of this was brought to my attention before I received them, the pics he had posted on kingsnake must have been from months ago because both of them looked very healthy in the pics. He is just an individual that's having to sell all of his pets due to a divorce his full name is Mike Madera and he's from Houston,TX. I've tried to contact him several times by phone and he dosen't answer, the only email address I have is his brothers and I don't want to bring him into this.

Let's see...
He posted that a guy shipped improperly, shipped animals that were substandard, not matching with the health shown in the pictures. He gave the guys name, and locations..
What's wrong with that.. it IS the BOI here. Isn't this the sort of thing that's SUPPOSED to be posted here?
More proof with emails(you can x out the actual email address if you want to) stating what the shipping was to be, and showing pics of the ones for sale, and the ones as received... that would be great also.
Sorry to hear the lizards aren't top notch, and I hope they improve with your good care.

His brothers email was only used to send the paypal payment all the other arrangements were made over the phone. Critical bill if you can't recognize this guy by the information I've provided I don't think his brothers email address will help you either.

Well in my opinion, if the brother allowed his email to be used in the transaction, he IS involved. Perhaps contacting the brother will be your only chance to get a hold of him. trying never hurt anything.

I emailed his brother tonight and he responded in about 5 minutes,he is just the middle man caught up in his brothers mess. The seller doesn't have a computer so his brother is posting the ads for him out of kindness he has no control over his brothers actions so I'd rather leave him out of this. The ad and all the sellers info is posted on kingsnake.com classifieds under the lizards category on the second page just look for the ad for the true banded and morocan uromastyx breeding pairs.

Let me tell you what anyone with a brain could tell you.
NEWS FLASH... The seller is a thief and his brother is an accomplice.
If you want to enable this scumbag to do this to others by aiding his poor innocent brother..so be it...thats your choice. Thanks for crying on our shoulders and not giving anyone anything solid to work with.
I'm actually dumber for having even getting involved in stupid ass crap like this.

Simply because of what I have seen on here in the past... I have to ask. Do you know for 100% certian that the brother and the seller are two different people.... could it possibly be the same person... and they just say they are using their brothers account. We have seen something similar here with another individual that used several alias.

Is that possible? Do you need me to draw you a map to his house?

Yeah, Chris Johnson (TSE) had a pretend shop full of pretend employees. He pulled it off for a long time too.
