Check out this bad boy i'm pickin up... :)

[StatikStepz]

...So I've got this male SHTCT het RAPTOR on hold to buy as soon as my check clears on Friday...

Check out that color!!!! What What!!!! (not too much of a carrot tail, but i think it's body color makes up for that, lol)

Can't wait to see what this bad boy will produce... Thinkin of what to breed it with first... I'm thinkin either a Red Stripe, or an Emerine... (Leanin more towards a Red Stripe)

No, thats not where i am getting it from. I don't think so anyways.

...And yes, it does look alot like the gecko in that post.

I'll have to contact the buddy of mine that found this. He saw it advertised on another classified website. He knows that i am lookin for a really nice SHTCT to add to my project, and he saw this, sent me the pic, and had apparently gotten in contact with the person that is selling it. And i told him, yes, tell them i want it!

So i don't know, i'll have to check it out and see if it's b/s by the person "selling" it or what... I hope not, because this gecko is absoltely amazing!

 

[StatikStepz]

Looking at the 2 pictures, they do look VERY identical. I'm glad that you showed me this and posted that link...

I’d be weary, it’s the exact same picture, and the person who actually owns that gecko is in Malaysia. And that owner doesn’t say it’s het R.A.P.T.O.R. in any of their post, just that it’s an HG tang.

 

[StatikStepz]

ok, so i just talked to my boy and he gave me this link for the classified he saw it on...
http://www.petclassifieds.us/132864/Tangerine-Super-Hypo-Carrot-Tail-Leopard-Gecko.html

"Captain Sirlock" is it's name, lol

 

[StatikStepz]

Ok then, well, this person is apparently in Harrisburg, PA...

Well that sux then. You have no idea the level of excitement i had! lol.

Unless that gecko in Malaysia had an identical twin, i think it's safe to say that this potential deal is null and void.

 

[rawson5084]

Very pretty

 

[Wandering Paddle]

yea dude. exact same picture... you almost got screwed

 

[Chewbecca]

WOW.

Beautiful gecko, too bad the deal isn't going to happen, but it's a good thing you didn't get screwed over.

Maybe someone should contact the original owner of the gecko to let him know that someone is stealing his pictures and selling their geckos as his geckos.

I think I shall start embedding my copyright IN my pictures AND on them.
To avoid this kind of junk.

 

[yellermelon]

Very nice gecko! But yeah somthing isn't right there, generally hg tanga are nit het raptor, generally if you can get a gecko shipped from Malaysia that looks like that you wouldn't sell it in bad health for 200 bucks! At least you didn't get screwed!!!!

 

[robin]

Looking at the 2 pictures, they do look VERY identical. I'm glad that you showed me this and posted that link...

it is the same gecko, look at the head patterning and the tail pattern only thing different is someone went in PS and made it slightly brighter orange.

the real way to find out who's gecko this is, is to contact dan the fireman.

 

[ILoveGeckos14]

You know you don't have to go to Malaysia to find a nice SHTCT hahaha but seriously there has to be people on this site with good SHTCT that aren't shiesty like Caption Sirlock :main_laugh:

 

[Enigmatic_Reptiles]

Nick just saved you good. It would have been a sweet pickup.

 

[StatikStepz]

Well i have nothin to say, but that REALLY sucks... i can only imagine the possibility with this guy if bred to the right female!

I'll tell you what tho, i sure am glad i made this post on here, or i mite just be out $200!

Thanx for the good memory, nick! lol
