As I have previously stated , the activities of this individual will be investigated by the BTS. Please send your comments and problems with him to me privatly and I will look into them.
And i thought i had a bad experience. Jay - what he said to your son is disgusting and unacceptable. I know i should have been more careful (and from now on i will), but every tarantula i have ever bought has been exactly what it was sold as. I thoroughly trust lee at thespidershop, and a guy called Mark who runs Ameyzoo -an exotic pet shop near me, but i will never be as trusting buying from anyone else again.
Rather than trying to return the P.ornata, as i know i have no proof of purchase, i will just look to get a female for him.

Lee is certainly one of the good guys, but don't be put off buying from others simply because you have had a bad experience with one seller. There are many other trustworthy people in the hobby (a damn sight more of them than the untrustworthy ones, happily), and you will miss out on a great deal if you restrict yourself just because of the one potential scammer.
Hang around, keep your eyes and ears open, read the forums, and you will get to hear of the good sellers and the not so good ones.
I'm not saying i wouldn't buy from anyone else, i am just saying i will be more careful and ask a lot more questions before buying from someone i have not heard of before.
Jay - "My son looked horrified and I called him back to say it was my little boys T and he wanted to keep him anyway, On that note Mr Grabowitz THROUGH the spider back into its tank banging it against the side of the tub and came out with ''Well. F**k You then'' that was to a 9 year old child!!!!!!!!!!"
At that point mate, Mr Grabowitz would have been dragged across the table and clouted with the largest heavy object in the immediate vicinity. Clearly this guy is a shyster as we call them in Yorkshire!
If he isn't banned from the BTS in May - could we at least have some notification of who he is or what name he trades by? I for one don't want to be spending a single penny with someone like this.
On the other note - I am looking for a male B.Vagans and would be happy to buy it from your son if it is for sale.
Jay.
