Check out this webpage http://www.pailsforscales.com.au/reptiles.htm read the highlighted bit in purple/pink. If you still want to deal with Rory after having read that, you have rocks in your head.

Thanks for that. The old adage still has a lot of meaning, " if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is."
Thanks for saving me alot of problems.

He also has an ad on RDU for beardies and using a pic of Oscar, my red male beardie. No idea how he managed to get hold of 6 of last years offspring, have emailed him to find out.

If you look at the advertising photo, it appears that he has taken a photos of his monitor whilst looking at a pic of Oscar posted on this site. Still awaiting a reply.
If anyone is looking at these beardies, don't buy until you have proof they are from Oscar, I don't know how he would have gotten hold of 6 of my babies from last year, if he tells me where he got them from I'll know whether he is for real.

He has perhaps the worst reputation that I know of as far as selling herps goes... I have had not had personal experience but have it on very trusted authority that it's probably best not to get involved with him.
If he's using your pic Sarah and making money off it, well, need I explain anymore?? It looks as though he's taken a photo of his monitor screen with Oscar's pic on it... Note the curved shape of the monitor gives you the non-straight border on the right hand side? There also appears to be the beginning of a OS window in that border...

Not only does he not have permission to use the pic, but I don't see how he got hold of 6 of the babies, so I very much doubt that they are from Oscar. If he tells me who he got them from I am happy to confirm whether they are or not.

He says they are 8 months old... Oscar's babies aren't 8 months old yet, are they?
