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.

Please post the PM's or other conversations you have had. If scammers are switching tactics to refer buyers to each other we need to know that, and who is doing it.

if he is t fraudulent though, and you just need to pay shipping costs, I would think that would be the best bet in this case, as my discussion with him was first the price of the animal then he later reminded me of the additional $40 for shipping... but I will definitely be looking into this before sending money!

The scammer listed by the OP is very obviously a fraud.

Also, you have him name and address? Have you filed a report with the police to investigate this issue? He has used the same email and name to contact me, and even sent me a name of another guy he gets his skinks imported from in eduador, so at the very least he is likely some what legitimate, and you should be able to get your money back with little effort... as he would need ID to pick up money at moneygram or WU...
Just trying to help
