I can say for certain that at least coleoptera-le was a reliable dealer some of the time. I ordered a Macrodontia crenata from him and it arrived all right. It may be possible he didn't have permits and got in trouble, because he packaged the beetle in a birthday card, not quite the legal way to send an insect.

I have had several good transactions with Carlos. The last box that I received was very good. I have tried for several months to order more insects from Carlos but he has not responded for some reason. Carlos I hope that you are taking good care of these buyers who have concerns. I believe that you could make a good business in the insect trade provided you treat all buyers honestly. I hope that you will send my most recent order soon. Mike F

I share your doubts about some of these Peruvian Ebay sellers.
About yacareinsects though, you may be right that his first feedback was a "fake", I don't know, but since then he has received 69 positive feedbacks from various buyers (there must be some members of this forum) and only one negative feedback, so I highly doubt yacareinsect is a scammer.
His only negative comment is about a 11 USD bug... and he has sold many expensive items with high prices and received only positive comments about them. Doesn't seem a scammer to me at all.

yacareinsects is Hernan Lequerica and there's no doubt that he is a good, reliable dealer; many people have had good experiences with him.
I have also dealt with Cesar Lequerica (no relation as far as I know and he also uses the name Erick) a few times and he has supplied good material. I've had to chase him up occasionally but he has always come through eventually.
I don't know Carlos Saavedra.

"Hi dear friend. I will prepare the exportation for your parcel. I will inform at once parcel as sent as soon as I can. all my best regards.
Erick "
coleoptera-le
I never got my specimens. EBay/PayPal refused to refund as I waited too long to make a claim. How was I to know? As the seller had positive feedback and Irena delays meant lengthy postage. EBay facilitated this theft and now refuse to take responsibility. Shame on you eBay... How was I to know...

I can only say positive things regarding carlos/erick. Over many occasions i have received parcels from them without any money up front. Not common species either. When i got sent the list with the beetles, sizes and prices, i agreed to take all their stock. They informed me that the paper work would take some time, but as i was not paying in advance, i could wait. After a few weeks and no more conversations with carlos/erick, i gave up hope, but then they contacted me to inform me that all the paper work was in order. Sure enough, a few more weeks later the parcel arrived with all the stock stated. regards peter

He claims to have had his eBay and PayPal accounts suspended for no reason...rather suspicious I think. Asked him if he got my money-no answer. But he did tell me that he will send owed specimens, I'll believe that when I see it and report back. The whole thing stinks...

Ebay does not close accounts for "no reason". Must be some complaints from various users.

I'm not saying this happened but I've seen accounts hacked and closed by competitors on Ebay.

Carlos seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. I talked to another buyer a couple of weeks ago who informed me that Carlos is on the Western Union "suspected scammer" list, so he has been flagged there which is not a good sign. It seems like there is a legitimate business opportunity out there for an honest, reliable, supplier in Peru. The good suppliers always do better and last longer. I really hope Carlos makes good with all of the bugs he owes people at this point.
