Posted - 14/04/2012 : 23:20:00 This is about 2 years ago, but there was one guy who claimed he could walk out the door and catch 'wild' albinos (well ok the original albinos were wc but ...)
In another scam one person strung the scammer along with a fake name and address and recorded emails and even phone calls and conned the scammer's mate into a meeting. It was pretty hilarious but I think it got deleted off ...pity lol. |

Hello, I have several unrelated males and females Albino Royal Pythons that were born (15-11-11). The males currently Weighs 200 grams and females 210 grams and they are all raised on perfect diet. I am asking £200 each. would take £350 package deal for a pair including delivery to your door with a few rat pups for feeding if interested. I am located in the amazon region of equatorial guinea. several of them have been sent to Greece, Belgium and Cyprus with successful deliveries. i guarantee delivery within 48hours max. Am also open to payment plans, half now and the balance upon delivery. May i know where you are located at please? Thanks, Lynn.
i have replied making it seem like im interested asking for pictures and so on but im fairly confident its a scam has any1 else seen anything like this before
Yup! Been a few like this over on RFUK - they take someone's money but the buyer won't see no snake ... |

Posted - 14/04/2012 : 22:19:48 i have heard good things about crystal palace reptiles. i like to view before i buy but if was to ever buy without seeing it would be there.
i wouldn't waste your time, was looking through the reptile sale one im on on facebook and he doesn't seem to reply too much in his posts. glad i never decided to get my frozen food from him |

Posted - 14/04/2012 : 22:15:25 i like to view before i buy

Posted - 14/04/2012 : 22:04:42 i think i have read something similar to this before somewhere else, think that was a scam
wouldn't surprise me if they took a deposit and you didn't hear from them again. better of saving up and buying from somewhere like crystal palace reptiles.
relating to the facebook one his son had some chameleons and set ups for sale on a special price for that day. a guy was interested but didn't get much joy so wrote on marks post today to which he said it was just that price for that day and now its gone up. think his son's post has been deleted for that too |

Posted - 13/04/2012 : 12:20:33 maybe im a bit just a bit too dubious for my own good lol. i will say though that his son posted a pastel for sale in another group on facebook and the pic was of a normal, maybe he put the wrong pic up
but if they are genuine prices then you certainly can't knock it |

Posted - 13/04/2012 : 12:11:36 No way did I think you were making it up.
Ads like this occur from time to time - not being a morph enthusiast I can't really comment on how good/bogus they are - but don't blame you for checking it out thoroughly. |

Posted - 13/04/2012 : 12:05:10 just so you all can see im not making this up |

Posted - 13/04/2012 : 11:32:09 on a serious note, if the lemonblast is female and if you go and visit and seems healthy at 150 i will have her!!! |

Posted - 13/04/2012 : 10:41:13 All I can say is it does sound to good to be true but I would be gutted if I passed up on these prices to find that it's legit
