Here in the UK it is illegal to send animals through the post, so when I answered the door this morning expecting to see an animal courier i seen royal mail instead. On top of the box it said insects inside urgent I dont think some one is gonna to take much care with a box of insects??? She was extremely cold when i got her out of the box. Which was just a cardboard box with her in a cricket tub surrounded by newspaper. No heat pads or even a polybox. So angry she is still sitting on me warming up as i dont want to put her on a heatmat yet incase she goes into shock.

Here are some pictures of the stunner

they requested an email to say she had arrived ok and any comment I had about delivery. I emailed them informing them that what they had done was illegal. I havnt had a reply yet.

I'm glad she made it there ok. I hope the breeder learns the correct way to ship. She's beautiful!

Did you pay for a real life animal transport?
I mean it´s not only that they put the geckos life on risk it´s also that they faked you for money...

Well than he faked you for at least 20 pound.
I would call them and ask why this has happend and if they are still not willing to explain I would go other ways....

By no means am I up on Brittish law, but I would hate to see them seize your animal as evidence if you reported this guy. That is a very nice addittion and I hope he does well.
