These people sold me 2 turtles under 4 inches as pets even though they are prohibited to do so. They kept insisting that we signed the term about turtles under 4 inches are sold for scientific or educational purposes only. They didn’t even give us that choice knowingly putting our health at risk. This regulation was put i place to prevent the spreading of salmonella. Had they told us up front about the size, we wouldn’t have moved forward with the purchase. On the website when we were adding the items to cart, it did t give us a choice if this was being purchased as a pet or other purposes. They automatically send whatever they felt like.

So I ordered my camel spider Sunday night it”s now Wednesday night and hasn”t come yet and after reading everyone else”s reviews I have a feeling if we do get it, it will probly be dead. I have sent several emails and no response and on top of it never received my confirmation number in the email they sent Sunday night after I ordered it. I think it”s funny that in almost every good review, the word STELLAR is used every time … Same person writing them? I will NEVER use this website again I will stick to the reptile expo I go to every month and wait for them to have a camel spider
