I know he looks good, but Im talking about growth. This is also coming from a company that has no phone number, which I find very unprofessional.
I ordered my first Pixie about a year ago from BackwaterReptiles, and I got ripped off as well. I e-mailed Sam and told him it was the dwarf species he'd sent me, even sent several pics and links of giant vs. dwarf to show it was truly a dwarf. He gave me a major line of BS, too, saying it was 100% adspersus like it said on the website. He said it was wild caught (not mentioned on the site either) from Mozambique. He refused a refund or to take the frog back. This guy is a drop shipper who doesn't know a thing about what he actually sells. The frog I ordered was a male giant, and what arrived was a female dwarf that only grew to just under 4" in total. At least yours is male, so it will get a bit bigger than mine did. But still, it can be disappointing to have your heart and wallet set on one thing and you end up getting another.
