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.

Yeah, earlier this year I jumped all over someone selling an 8ft+ albino Burmese on Ebay. The seller wanted $1000 for him too!

Without having seen the Ebay listing I would say that the chances are equally good that the seller was told by someone else (a ball python breeder perhaps) that the snake was het for mojave. People buy snakes for many reasons, only one of which is for the fancy morphs. This might have simply been someone who was intentionally (or unintentionally) misinformed by the person he bought the snake from. I know if I were an unscrupulous dealer I could tell any of my customers that any of my snakes were het for anything I wanted them to be. Most of them would not know the difference, or the significance, and most of them probably would not even care. If and when these people tried to get rid of the snake they would have no reason not to tell any prospective buyer that the snake was het for whatever trait I told them it was het for. It's not their fault and not everyone is so caught up in the morph thing that they would even have a reason to check up on it.

Which would be why I sent the seller a polite email explaining exactly why he was either ignorant, had been taken advantage of, or was trying to take advantage of someone else when I saw the ad....and that animal sales are prohibited on Ebay. Then I reported it too Ebay for removal.
