Hi all,
Can anyone give me any experiences (good or bad) in dealing with John Barirega / Location: Mbarara, Uganda 256414
He has posted 2 ads in the last month or so advertising butterflies and beetles for sale.
His prices are reasonable and he is offering some attractive material.
Your advice would be welcome before I bite the bullet.
Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,
search for his name in Facebook, and you will find that he is a cheater. Avoid him!

Thank you both for your info.
This is where the insect trading reports are really helpful.
Cheers,
Rob
(Off to look for more honest dealers, any recommendations would be welcome...)

For African material, I recommend not to deal directly with African dealers, most of them are crooks and the few honest ones work exclusively with big Western insect sellers. So you can find material from big suppliers, you'll find some on our homepage : www.insectnet.comEbay is also a good source for African material, see here : www.collector-secret.com/insect/coleoptera/goliathus/ |

Hi rob am jackjet from MERYLAND [MODERATOR'S EDIT].
This seems highly suspicious - Members should treat with caution.
