jet black columbian???

[kellen.watkins]

Has anyone else seen this for sale on kingsnake? They have been trying to sell this guy for months now for 1,250$ and I think thas absolutely ludacris and am wondering if they are out of their mind lol, I mean that's like paying six figures for an all black argentine tegu, maybe a couple hundred dollars and that's a maybe I laugh everytime I go on kingsnake lol

 

[Neeko]

it is amusing to look at lol. who knows what will happen when it bigger though maybe it will look just like a normal columbian,.

 

[laurarfl]

I think it is pretty silly. I have a dark Colombain and one that is B/W. Since there a lot of gold Colombians right now, maybe they think it is cool. Someone might like it, but not $1250 worth.

its been there way longer then a month, they had that posting since march

 

[MONITORFAN]

I was wondering if someone was going to bring this up. I dont know much about tegus so I didnt to bring it up and sound like an idiot. I thought it was high but sure didnt know. They keep posting new pics but it doesnt look like it is getting any bigger.

 

[kellen.watkins]

Wow I didn't know it was that long! I know it was 1400 at one time, you would think they would of figured out by now that nobody is gonna pay tha much for a columbian, people don't even sell albino tegus for that much

That Columbian has been posted at LEAST since I joined the old site last year. And the info on it had been posted a while before that.

yeah stuff like that has been posted a lot for a long time

 

[Draco D Tegu]

Why is it that that columbian hasn't grown in over a year for supposedly "updated pics".

Scam.

LOL Hoosier...since 2008 that gu's been for sale!

I wonder how many people got scammed into thinking they got something other than a food colored gold columbian and were suprised after the first shed that the black "dissappeared".

 

[kellen.watkins]

Well I'm glad I started this thread lol

It's been up since some time last year and started at $2500. I've kept my eye on it,.. the pics don't change they rotate 2 sets. I asked Josh about it a few months ago and he said he could let it for $1000 I also asked for updated pics but didn't get any. Drop a zero off of that and I would get it,.. just because I like it and would like to see what it looks like now.

ive been watching that add for a year or longer myself. i didnt bother asking any questions because i was put off on how they never post any aged newer pics, just baby pictures. it only takes a second to take a picture now adays, especially if you want over a grand for something you can get off your lazy butt and snap one. also i know there are a lot of us tegu fans out there and if it WAS a good deal it should have been long gone already.

You know the original price was 2500 / They can offer it for 60 and then maybe it will sell ...

 

[MONITORFAN]

I emailed and got updated pics just because I was wondering if it was any bigger. It is still pretty small but black as can be. Told me he would sell for $800. Told him not really interested in paying that much. Didnt want to tell him I had no interest from the beginning but wanted to see pics.

 

[got10]

Its because the lizard has probably changed in color drastically and they want to recover what they paid for it .but , if people see what it currently appears like ,they will not purchase it.

 

[babyyitslove]

I wanna see this thing....

 

[Bubblz Calhoun]

I don't think the color has changed much on this one. MonitorFan,.. do you mind sharing what pics you have?

 

[Rhetoric]

Yes! Please share!

 

[MONITORFAN]

Sorry all I deleted the pics the day after I got them. He is still really dark in the pics. He just seems pretty small but I am not an expert on the what size a columbian should be at this point. He did say it is hard to get pics of him. Said he is skittish and is very fast. So the pics were with him holding him.

 

[Bubblz Calhoun]

I just got pics from Josh and good grief they make me want it even more. It's ridiculously cute to me with that black and yellow bumble bee head and dark body.
