First Choice Reptiles ripped me off

Ya definitely start a dispute and just buy the croc skinks somewhere else, tons of em out there right now.

Pay pal will refund the money to your account. It is as simple as that. The seller is losing customers and money. There is no need to angry or call names. They won't last long in any business without customers.

I can't find one anywhere! Any ideas?

Have patience. You may have to wait till next year when they are available /imported.

And that is what got you into the mess to start with...lol
Be patient although I know it is difficult at times when you WANT something but it usually pays dividends in the long run.

Try the Facebook group "Rare and Uncommon Reptiles Exchange".

Here is a new ad from this morning selling some. Any interest in buying from this person?

From a banned account? Probably not a good idea...

Correct. Scammers watch the "Wanted" ads online (here and elsewhere). They wait for people who appear particularly desperate, because desperate often can equate to foolish.

What kind of bait "ad" did this banned account put up? Exactly the one Haeli was scrambling to find. Had we not almost instantly banned that account, would desperation have led to common sense being tossed out the window?

The skinks will eventually become available, patience is a virtue at this point I believe. Desperation can attract unsavory folks, as it did in this case.
