    You really shouldn't buy hets period unless it's a gamble you want to take. Everyone can be sinister in intent or mistaken is good intentions.
    I agree, while I've gotten hets from Ralph and the animals were great and everything I ever hoped they would be, I've also received a LOT of hets from people who weren't Ralph and have never been scammed yet. It's unfortunate that there always seems to be so much emphasis on 'outing the scammers' that sometimes it sounds like half the people in the herp hobby are scamming the other half when in reality it's really a very small number of people who are dishonest.
