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.

“Sunset Hypo” scammer strikes again
Wanda and Joe Patterson AKA “Sunset Hypo” have done it again. They told me they had 2 large proven Brazilian females with the very hard to find yellow heads available. They were supposedly bred to Hypo redfoot males and had proven themselves last year. When I asked for pics they said I could see them on Kingsnake.com ad. I arranged to pick them up on my way back from vacation. When I met them at a McDonalds in Hampton it was neat 100 degrees and my a/c in the van was not working well. I was also pulling a car trailer and it was blocking the parking lot. I grabbed the torts and paid and took off. When I arrived home and inspected the torts they were females however, not Brazilians but Bolivians. I have a breeding group of Bolivians. I wanted Brazilians. When I notified them of the error they became insulting and abusive in their Email. Would not provide the Brazilians I asked for. I have all emails back and forth and can prove that these are Bolivians but they insist they are a very hard to find Nortern variety of Brazilians. They have a solid black plastron. They are definitely crooked as heck. Frank Dombrowski

Can you please post the ad and the emails proving the incorrect animal was sold to you. In general I suggest that if you are given an opportunity to inspect an animal 'in person' you should take the time to carefully do so as looking at the animals and then paying for them and taking them could be deemed acceptance of them by the seller unless your issue cannot be visually discerned..
Also unless the name of their company is Sunset Hypo, their name should be in the title.
