there is like two places that you can get them that I have found so far. Compared to the hundreds that you find for Bearded Dragons What is wrong with them why don't more people have them?

www.sundialreptile.com sells them and are very reputable.
I don't think that it's that people don't like them, cuz they are way cute. I personally just prefer Bearded Dragons because they are larger.

I also don't think its a matter of liking or not liking the Rankin or Lawson's bearded dragon, its more a availability issue. Most bearded dragons in North American and Europe/Asia originated from smuggled stock way back before Australia put a strict band on exporting their natural wildlife. Those in the pet trade now are descendants from those original smuggled animals as well as confiscated livestock given new homes by authorities. There has been some legal exporting of bearded dragons to some areas with certain strings attached (research, zoos etc). There just wasn't as much Rankin dragons available compared to Inland bearded dragons.
