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.

SF Geckos, Jonathan Ho; One of the Best!!!
Wow, I am still amazed after doing business with Jonathan Ho. I contacted him several months ago looking for a female Las Vegas Patternless Albino. I have heard from several other breeders that Jonathan had very nice geckos and had been out crossed. I am a firm believer in genetic diversity. He said he would have some latter in the year, sure enough I saw a couple of his ads for some nice specimens on kingsnake.com and the classifieds here. I contacted him and we worked out a great deal and I decided on which gecko I wanted. I let him know when the MO would be in the mail. He let me know when he got the MO, set a shipping date, confirmed my address, and answered any questions I had. On the shipping date we sent me a tracking number. I picked up the gecko early the next morning at the UPS station. Opened the package, took a look at the female PA, she looked better in person then the pic, she is orange, not yellow like in the pics! That was a huge and greatly welcomed surprise. I noticed an extra deli cup attached to the bottom of the PA's. I was like "what the hell". I looked in it there was another gecko. The first thoughts that ran through my mind was he sent the wrong order to me, I could not believe it, this was not a good thing! I untapped the two deli cups from each other and in between them was a note saying the extra gecko was for Marcy's birthday! Looking a little closer, the gecko was a hypo tangerine carrot tail with some great bloodlines in her! I was stunned I did not expect this! I am very glad I did business with Jonathan and I will surely buy more animals from him the future. They were packed correctly, very healthy, etc. Just look at these girls:
Female Las Vegas PA
Female Hypo Tangerine Carrot tail
To think that a couple people e-mailed me saying not to do business with Jonathan stating that he altered his photos to "unreal" coloration. Told them they must be mistaken, as I was sure Jonathan was a very trustworthy individual. Sure enough today those people don't have a leg to stand on. Do not hesitate doing business with Jonathan; he is at the top of my list!

I have to agree with Justyn here, Jon Ho is one of the good guys. Although I have never purchased any animals from him, I would not hesitate to in a heartbeat. I have known Jonathon since at lease 2000, and he has purchased geckos from me in the past. He has always been a pleasure to deal with and to talk with. You can't go wrong buying from Jonathon Ho/SF Geckos!

Great geckos!
Although I have not actually done business with Jon (hopefully will in the future), I have met him and seen some of his stock. They are exceptionally beautiful and healthy, and by no means does he "doctor" his photos. If anything, the pics do not do his geckos justice! That, along with his knowledge and great attitude, makes for a top-notch breeder.

Jon is excellent! I just received a male N. levis levis and everything about the transaction was great! He kept me informed on everything and answered my questions. I wouldn’t hesitate doing business with Jon at all because he is one of the best. Buy with confidence.

Thank you for positive feedback!
Can't believe the previous feedback prior to Brandi was in 2005! I hope there's more than just one happy satisfied customers in the last four years =)

I Concur...
I just completed a trade/cash transaction with Jon. It was for a hypo milii and a tang amel aft. They both look better than the pics he sent to me. Definitely high quality animals.
The arrangement we had: Jon is to ship my geckos out first and then i will ship his out the following day. The evening before Jon was supposed to ship, i realized i did not have any heat packs left and i do not know where i can get the 20-40 hour packs locally. So i sent Jon a email to ask him for a favor to include a extra unused heat pack. This way i can use it to ship his geckos :-) He replied promptly and assured me that it was not a problem. Needless to say, transaction went smooth as silk.
I will not hesitate to do business with him again or recommend him to anyone. He is one of the good guys.
Regards,
Kenny Tran

I received 6 geckos from Jonathan today and they were perfect. I couldn't be happier with the quality or his service.
