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.

Given your attitude about risk and death, if your claim about 'research' is true, it is a disturbing thought.

Yeah, the matter is definitely done
and well worked over.
Opinions are clear
Underground Reptile just shipped
me a few good Tokays
in good shape
in similar weather
and they could get me some more
in worse conditions.

It is over!
I'm over it.
I'm sure he is over it.
I hope that specific Bluegreen tokay
has raised in value.
I hope Tokays in general are raising in value.
I was frustrated at loosing such a nice deal,
it was fun and entertaining
to hash it out with some creative pondering
about some internal inconsistencies
with the pet trade.
You can buy $5 "feeder" geckos
shipped anywhere to be chewed up and swallowed
by your favorite pet or your friend's favorite pet.
You all don't blink twice at that.
You can buy a Tokay for $7
If you breed nice colors you can sell yours for $700
You can clone your favorite pet for $100,000
from the Koreans.
You hire FedEx or SpaceX to "unethically"
risk and endanger your animals
anytime you got the money.
The value of the life
and biology of the animal is the same.
I think the real prick here is the insecurity
that any social business obligation
or limit or boundry
might infringe on individual seller freedom.
people get really angry
when you suggest they should
be limited in personal freedom
in any way.
I'm more ethical because I do not risk my animals
in shipping them out.
Am I a hypocrite because I do ship them here
in adverse conditions? I'll think about that.
I guess it was selfish to risk a tokay
that I felt was worth $400 - $600
because I was getting him for $100 shipped.
Makes sense the seller did want to let him go.
The only people I rail against here
is the angry mob full of personal insults.
It was a business complaint
and then I'm accused
of "stabbing with a knife"
and "mistreating my animals"
and everything in between
ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE
If you self-interested sellers were not so slanderous
and malicious in your own minds
it all would be a lot more creative and funny.
I ain't even going to bring in genetic engineering...
thanks for watching
nothing more to see here
move along
sorry a can't help you
It is over!

I'd like to see some one post any and all correspondence with regard to the deal. I'm shocked nobody asked for that yet! Or did I miss something. Any texts? Emails? Was the money refunded at the same time the deal was ended? Money was taken by the seller. If he wasn't comfortable shipping because of the weather, why not just delay until a more suitable day?

Well, we know who you are, and I think this community is relieved to find that out now.
And should anyone forget, BOI threads are permanent, and searchable.

and the snark attack drags on....
It's just a last word contest now,
just a visual written open mic night.
I'm done with it.
It has become trite.
You can say your opinion
and you know what they say opinions are like.
