    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bad Guy Rial Dragons (Not so pleasant exp) May 28 2015

Leng, did you consider the exchange rate changes nearly daily? The euro has been raising above the dollar for the past few days now. It's definitely noticeable from a couple weeks ago. Did he refund you the same amount of euros that you sent him? Also, if he called you, that's more than most breeders I deal with from Europe have done for me. Finally, the four times a year shipping, and the June 16 date confirms him using brokers at Hamm.

I have considered it Mike. Rial has refunded me and regardless of a lost it is ok. Rial claims and tells everyone that the dragon is unhealthy and everyone will believe him. I got my refund and will move forward. I still think that Rial produce some extremely rare dragons and for the people that have done good business with him I envy you guys.

I do not wish to take calls with Rial because of his heated outburst of profanity on messenger. The "Call" may become escalated and probably nothing will come good of it. If this call was handled prior to all the photos seen on facebook and all the accusations it might've been a different story. But after all the fighting on facebook and the back and forth... nothing will come good of it. A refund is good enough and all I need to move on. Already looking to buy within the states now so as long as Rial puts this behind him, I will also.
 
All I know is that I asked him for pictures as proof of my dragon because I wouldn't receive it for another month and a half. Paid May 7 2015 and won't receive until June 18th 2015. He refused and it just so happens that on the same day he told me that the dragon "is not going the way it is". He post it up on his facebook about how the dragon is a "strange color dunner". Just fishy to me. He even told me that the dragon is dead so I guess it's over with.
 
The question of the mark at the base of the tail could be pattern change but looks to me as if it is marked to distinguish a sale or clutch. Often breeders use a marker or paint to help separate.
 
It looks like the same dragon to me. If you wanted you could ask him to prove its not the same dragon by taking the paradoxes pic together with the one you bought in the same picture.
