Has this been a rough couple of weeks for the BOI or what?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>
It's been a little crazy on there and pretty negative. spam_I can understand it turning people off, but it is a great protection when buying over the internet. spam_
When you do find what you want, you do a search for other people with experiences with this person.
And yes, &quot;bad&quot; gets posted a lot more than &quot;good&quot;--or at least gets more attention.

As for finding a &quot;tame&quot; iguana, monitor, or tegu--it's not easy through a dealer--most already &quot;tame&quot; lizards of those species are spoiled pets--they tend not be &quot;tame&quot; on their own.
Maybe try getting a baby ackie monitor, or if you want something big, try a baby ARGENTINE tegu, and raise them up to know you. spam_Those would be your best bets. spam_Or if you have a particular species in mind, just get it young and expect to have to work with it a lot to tame it down.
There are lots of good ackie breeders, and two very well know argentine tegu breeders that would work for you if you are interested.

good luck
