I am about to order from him and was wondering if anyone else had ordered from him before? He has some of the best looking Pacman frogs I have ever seen and the wife wanted some. Thanks,
Scott
 
Never done business with him nor heard negative feedback.

But be sure you get all the info on the species as he does Import a lot of stuff. Pacmans not sure if he imports them or not.
 
Yeah, I found one of his classifieds on another site, but he has it here as well.

The one on the other site I found was exactly like the one here, but looks like it expired. It was on Kingsnake.com .

I am ordering a Tri-color and a Red Pacman frog as I have never seen any that looked like this before. When it comes to getting something, I like getting something special and these guys look great. I was sure to specify what I wanted via email and phone when placing the order. Just seeing if others had experience with him.
 
I contacted him about getting some female Uroplatus sikorae I was interested in buying from him in march 2011. He refused to send me pictures of any females, told me that he had to many animals to take any individual pictures and that out of the 60 he had they probably would all be gone tomorrow. So he expected me to forward him $150 with out ever seeing what he was going to send me. Not necessarily bad as I know this is common between importers with lots of animals but Im not spending my money when you can take the time to send me one picture when I ask nicely.
 
Jack, when dealing with someone who moves a lot of animals, you cannot expect him to take pictures of 60+ animals for you to pick one from them. I am sorry you feel that he was unreasonable. For pictures, you need to deal with a small breeder.
 
I didn't ask for 60 pictures I asked for one female any female. I deal with a lot of importers so I don't know who you deal with. Last time I got no pictures of females I was sent 3 males. So I ask ahead of time now what they are sending.
 
To get WC animals you do not deal with small breeders. You deal with importers and yes I normally receive pictures when I ask for them and after I trust a seller enough I may or may not ask the next time. If he's to big to send pictures their are plenty others that import madagascar that will. So his loss.
 
I am on the fence on this one. On one hand it is understandable that importers/breeders/distributors can't take pictures of every animal they have. On the other I also require that the vendor I purchase from has some pictures of the stock I am getting to ensure health and quality. I was sure to express to Eric I expected the same quality of frogs as was posted in his adds and Facebook page. He sent them out today and they arrive tomorrow. I honestly can't wait. Here is a link to his Facebook album so you can see for yourself.

He sent me a "hatchling" savannah monitor that was 18" long and refused to eat ANYTHING for over two weeks now with correct husbandry. I'm not too fond of the guy to say the least.
