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.

AAA reptiles
Ordered two blizzard leopard geckos from them. The geckos were in perfect health, but these reasons lead me to never buy from them again:
~No one answered the phone, on countless times i had called them, on different days as well.
~The pictures of the blizzard were played up, so that the geckos were sky blue. So they lied about the product they were selling. The geckos were a white color with shades of yellow to them, far from blue at all.
~The invoice stated that the lizards were shipped the 29th of May, i recieved the leopards on June 2nd, when i payed for overnight shipping.
It may have just been me who had these bad experiances with AAA, but thats a lot of things gone wrong to happen to one order. I also will not be buying from them again.

Um, the 29th of May (I am assuming of 2004) was a Saturday. Now if you ordered him late in the week or on that Saturday then they wouldn't ship until the 1st of June (due to the holiday). They arrived on June 2nd, that's overnight shipping.

Do you have the pics from them that were played up AND pics after arrival that could be posted so everyone can see the difference?

glad to see your geckos arrived...
When you posted your query on the forums on KS, several people (including myself) had told you they wouldn't be blue. Yes, I feel the ad was misleading, but I would recommend doing a search on the BOI (as I also put in my response to your forum post) from now on & listen to what is said in response. Are the geckos otherwise healthy? If so, I think $30 is a fair price. Sorry if I come off as being harsh, not meant that way, but a blue gecko would be rare indeed & worth way more than $30!

Yeah...what was that one going for again? If we breed the red with blue we should get purple offspring.

Bad photoshop job on their part. Did you ask them if they were blue? If you did and they said they were in fact blue, then you have a solid complaint but if you go thru their site, there are a lot pics with funky colors.
I wish you luck trying to get a refund or replacement but I doubt you will ever find blizzards that are blue.
Post some pics of what the ones look like that you were sent so they can be compared to what they advertise.
