Anthony Capenetto

Found this as I am about to buy from Anthony. As far as I am concerned I am making the purchase right now.

Thanks for the Bad Guy thread that just made a sale.

Well anyway I check Acreptiles.com on a daily basis and uncovered some mistakes or he does this on purpose, I'm going with on purpose because as a business owner you better bring your a game bar none.

So in the past with this guy not returning my emails or answering my questions and having friends of mine with the same problems I have no sympathy for him on what I'm about to tell everyone.

First is in the Unsexed section of his website he has a gecko for sale under the ID number ID 0609-AC-U11 This geckos picture was up on his site a couple of months ago and now its back up again hmmmm. And yes the earlier gecko was SOLD mind you. If I could go back I would be able to prove this for sure. But with my next issue with this guy, you won't have doubt believing this one.

Second you go into his Gecko Packs w/Pics section and look under ID 0509-AC-PK2. On here is a picture with all three geckos in one picture that clearly states that these are not examples. These are the exact geckos you will recieve. Not True again. If you look at the bottom gecko, out of the three pictures there are two different geckos.

Third looking into the Gecko Packs w/Pics look up ID 0509-AC-PK3 this time he has the same gecko that is listed in PK2 in PK3 as well.

So do I hate this guy....no. But from what I've heard from my friends and then discovering things like this, It sure doesn't want to make me do business with this guy for sure.

I just find it wrong to have that many issues with photos on a website and the fact that if you were to buy either package or that single one mentioned you wouldn't recieve what is pictured. I'm just looking out for people who spend mucho bucks with this guy get what they damn pay for. Where not talking $30.00 dollar geckos here.

Ok let me see if i get this ?? You have never bought anything from him ? Your mad at him for not contacting you ? None of this sounds right !

This thread was a waste of time, seriousley. Anthony is a big time breeder, and to post a "bad guy" thread on him is just insulting. UNLESS you have actually delt with him, and recieved animals from him that were incorrect i think you have no say about him or his buisness. Unless you have an inquiry about him, which clearly you do not.

that is just my 2cents

I placed my order last week with Anthony , Communication was great and my animals are out for delivery as I type. So far this has been nothing but a good reptile purchasing experience.

Sorry OP

Well, it took three quick email responses and a few days. I have 23 beautiful crested geckos. Communication was fantastic and the process he uses is great. Will do business with him again soon. A+++++++++
