As far as the whole misidentification issue that is why sellers provide pic's. Unless a seller is intentionally misrepresenting what he has for sale a good portion of the responsibility rests with the buyer to know what he is getting. I have seen all sorts of things mislabeled over the years. It happens. Importers and dealer don't always know what they have.
He got a bad rep for rudeness. I saw his post. I even replied to it. What I remembered was, that he kept going on about how this site was a bad site, and guilt tripping the mods. To no avail the mods gave the ban hammer to the post! I think it was something about him getting mad about the mods talking bad about him. But I dont remember even seeing the mods talk about bout ben. Unless hes from big apple herps. If he is, well DURP. He put the picture of a friggin' african GIANT bullfrog, and the whole identification of it. I mean had he atleast put the actual pictures of the frog. Like the actual pictures of the whole group and several individual frogs. Then maybe it wouldnt have had happened. Hed gotten an email saying "thats a dwarf" hed change it to dwarf. Then nobody would have complained. But reading the post of jeff kennedy, he got ripped off I THINK 125-130bucks from BIG APPLE HERPS. Because of the whole thing I just said. Iam assuming ben siegel is from big apple herps. I looked at their website, and some animals are abit "off".

Overall reason his post was probably deleted:
-Rudenesss
-Dissing this site directly
-Dissing the mods directly
His whole thread sounded like a hate thread. The rest I dont really know. But hes posted on two threads angry. That should speak for itself bro.
