    Joseph Capone Power house reptile is he legit or scam?

    I saw an ad on fauna classifed of Joseph Capone selling lessers and mojaves for a good deal. He wanted me to pay at paypal. Im not sure if this is a scam or if hes a legit seller. Does anyone know? How can i make sure that he is selling me the correct snake? Do i ask for pictures or other stuff to make sure its legit?

    You need to ask this in the business section.

    I believe Fauna has a place to look up feed back on people something like that, yes request pics call him ask questions etc. Best of luck and paypal is a very good way to pay.

    Re: Mojaves and Lessers from Joseph Capone Power House reptile

    why have you posted the same question in 3 different areas (all of which are the wong ones). Questions like this belong in the inquiries/feedback section, found here; http://ball-pythons.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=90

    Well, Paypal is pretty safe in general to pay with. Another thing you could do is ask him for an updated picture with the date and his name in it, if he is a reputable breeder, and actually has the snake, he won't refuse. As well, ask what kind of guarantee he offers on the snakes, live arrival is a must for me, but some will offer a guarantee for about a week after you have them.

    Also, check faunaclassifieds.com on the Board Of Inquiry section, just to make sure he has good feedback.

    Good luck!

    He's a scumbag. He may sell cheap, but you're giving your money to slime.

    I would HIGHLY recommend you find another breeder.

    Hey Wes,
    Any history on him on fauna? Or personal experience?

    I'm going to stay away from him just because of the red flag prices he threw up. I can't stand market throwers.

    Please only create one thread to ask a question..multiple threads to ask the same thing is pointless and they'll be deleted.
