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.

I have been away from the forum for a LONG time. I got a het. pied female from Chris about 10 months ago. I had no real problems with the transaction. I am now wondering, however, about if I might not have gotten what I paid for. I was given a "sex and genetic" guarantee. From what I have read on this thread I can probably forget about that being any good. Does anyone out there have any experience with Chris in that regard? Not that there is anything I can do about it anymore. Just was wondering if I spent serious money for a 100% het. pied female that is something less than that. If I am asking this in the wrong spot I am sorry and could you direct me to the proper area. I'm not looking for digs on Chris, just any input that might let me know if I got what I paid for.

I know he had advertised a HET (I think Albino) from TSE before that whole charade was exposed. He showed the animal next to the "genetics guarantee" from TSE.

If Chris A sold a "het" from Chris J before Chris J was exposed then Chris A is hardly to blame for that.

Jerry.....was the het from TSE? And do you remember exactly when the transaction took place?
If the het was prodcuced by Chris JOHNSON of Top Shelf Exotics, you very well may be out of luck. If it was before TSE's "het scam" was exposed, I wouldn't say that Chris A had real fault in the matter, there are many of us stuck with those hets....

Yup, that would depend on when it was sold to Jerry; 10 months is a pretty thin line, though, considering Chris A. knew the doubts of the hets in the April-May timeframe.

My thoughts exactly, Denise...it seems too close to call without more info.

It looks like it's right on the line close, as in sold in April - hopefully Jerry will confirm.

Too close for a call of 100% either way. However, IMO... regardless of who that last probable fake het was sold to, it was so close to the realizing of scams that it might have been more prudent to buy the snake back. At the very least the buyer should have been informed and given the option since the genetics were in question less than three weeks 2-3 weeks later.
