I wouldn't be too alarmed, especially if you didn't buy from him. I don't even know who he is, but wouldn't hesitate if he had something I liked just because he had sold a gecko with an eyelid problem and a regen tail. As we all know, tails can and do fall off. I have a gecko who lost her tail in April for absolutely no apparent reason. It was pretty disturbing to open her enclosure to find a big, fat tail sitting up on the hidebox, let me tell you. She's kept alone and I still for the life of me can't figure out why it happened, so I'll just chalk it up as 'one of those things'. It happens a lot more with hatchlings caged together, I'm told, but really not something to worry about. Really, I'd look at it as one gecko, because the regen is a non-issue.
Especially as Robert points out that this guy sold many geckos at the recent show, it makes sense people will want to comment on what they bought there. ----- Rob Jenkins
