FINALLY!!!!!! (pics)

StinaUIUC Feb 13, 2004 07:42 PM

I FINALLY figured out what happened to my poor new tang rainwater male! Turns out Garrick actually put the wrong appartment number on the box, and so he ended up delivered to the apartment right downstairs...lol I had called fed ex tonight and they finally put me on the phone with the local people who told me that they had delivered it to 102...the people on customer service didn't know that... says a lot for thier customer service...:P Anyway...here's a couple pics I snapped of the poor guy after I got him out of that darn box!

oh...this one was Garrick's pic of him...he looks so much better in real color...lol Don't really rely too much on Garrick's pics if you're considering getting a leo from him...they're not very good...they look so much better in person!!

These are the pics I took...

I’m glad things worked out after all the hassle you and your gecko went through. He really has some nice color; I think Garrick needs to invest in a better camera, because his geckos are really under-represented. Did your neighbors think you were strange for getting a gecko in the mail?
