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.

Reptiles n Critters selling B&W tegu for over $2000
What is up with this. Is this seriously what the hobby has become, selling an argentine black and white tegu for over $2,000...mislableled, and there seems to be a dropped tail in the lower right hand corner of the enclosure.

Did you try to call it to their attention? Maybe whoever runs their website made an error. I know I've clicked on the wrong picture when posting before. 
Whether that is a fair price for a monitor or not I have no clue, I'm not invovled with monitors in any way.

First other animal I clicked on had a messed up photo (albino sinaloan was not an albino). I'd say sloppy web-site until there is other evidence of a deliberate scam.

Heh, their ghost ball looks like they accidentally put up a ghost bull. It's like a scavenger hunt for herpers.

Ah, Reptiles N Critters is actually RC Enterprises. Ok, lazy webmaster AND bad guy. I stand corrected. I'd forgotten they were those guys (generic name, hard to keep straight) until I saw the copyright on the bottom of the website.

im looking at their website right now and i am noticing some very big errors. to start, they have normal retics for sale but they have a pic of a burm instead of a retic. not to mention that the normal tiger retics they are selling have pictures of an albino tiger. thats seems like false advertising to me. someone who may not know the difference may think they are buying a very nice purple albino tiger retic (pictured) but are in fact buying a normal tiger retic. someone needs to get their facts strait before advertising on a website like that. thats just my opinion but i call it like i see it and its open for all to see. take a look at the site for yourself i guess.

Blue Tree Monitor Pair Varanus macraei
The Blue Tree Monitor inhabit the Aru Islands of New Guinea, living in an arboreal habitat. Their skin color is completely black, lending the monitor its name.
Availability: IN STOCK
Animal Size: Adults
Price: $2499.99
blue tree's skin color is completely black for sure, and 1250$ a piece... really? I'd have to say careless would be correct

And the spider ball is a blood python.. The blue eyed leucy is not their picture.. The het bel is an actual bel.. Etc etc.. Oh my god these people are messed up. Something like this could be detrimental too. It could cause people to mis identify snakes and not know what's what.

I like how the picture for their python category is in fact an Emerald Tree boa. LOL

The vast majority of the pictures are not theirs. Not sure if they have permission or not but I typically take things like that as either proof of a scam, or laziness..... neither are good when dealing with a reptile dealer.
