Hey

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good reliable and resonable priced reptile online store - i just bought a viv online from a dodgey company so unfortunately i have even less money now to play with. has anyone every used whiskersandwings? an online petshop? if you have had any probs with them please let me know - if you were thinking of using them in the future the DONT not unless you want less money and nothing to show for it?

hi stingray, welcome to the forum,
sorry to hear you've been ripped off, thanks for the warning about that online petshop!!
the only place i've used so far online is 888 Reptiles for supplies and I was pleased with their service.
hope this helps!

I agree with Potterfan, 888reptiles is ok.

Lewy has also got a link to exotic-pets.co.uk on the main forum page, so they must be recommended. He wouldn't link to them if they were pants.

yeah welcome to the site, most people normally say hi and introduce themselves rather than slating a shop/person/whatever. like bE says, what was the problem? what steps have you taken to resolve any issues? what was the outcome of any communication??

I'm just trying to get to the bottom of the problem

I highly recommend 888 reptiles, i saved £26 with them compared to my local pet shops. They are reliable and give fantastic advice. I am very sorry to hear you got ripped off. :( It isnt a pleasant feeling. I know personally from experience when i bought my very first corn snake and at the time showed no sign of bad health til 3 weeks later i noticed a hardening roughly in the middle of his belly, took hm to the vets and got cryptosporidium. I was annoyed as the pet shop already knew about this and yet sold them at a £70. 2 weeks after seeing the vet and trying to get treatment little Plisken was dead. So i can totally understand how upsetting it is.

I just asked about a site that delivers corns in another thread hehe good job i found this. Just ordered a 20cm CB'08 baby female Butter het Motley Corn from exotic-pets.co.uk, it says i have to wait 5-10days for the order to process, somthing about the snake been off-site, if it was on site it would only be 1-4days but i can wait.
I'll let you know if theres any problems, doubt there will be if its been recommended on here :) Thanks.
