Be careful.
There is a reason why Peru is a third world country.
Its people aren't all the honest types.
Ive been ripped of 3 rimes. Twice through ebay.
Nor even ebay refunded me. They said i left it too long. Bark those guys, i simply waited, as its supposed to take longer whith permits amd what not.

I have used Juan Josè Ramìrez Hernandez <macrodontia@hotmail.com> for very odd orders of butterflies for many years. Juanjo is often slow, but he has never failed me when it comes to bugs from specific locations or habitats. So I'm guessing he can handle fairly common beetles as well.

Paul, not often I disagree with you, but here I must.

Haiti, Zimbabwe, Somalia, Bangladesh, etc. third world ###holes. You can’t call them “developing” because they’re only going backwards.

Peru might be a stretch though.

Call it what you like. Its just semantics, really.
An honest non Peruvian dealer used to supply me years ago. He had to leave. Why? Some jealous Peruvians smashed up his office and stole his computer, etc. Apparently theft is more convenient than hard work. And that's why countries like Peru go backwards. Look at Chile. Probably the strongest economy in South America till recently. But the have nots just want free stuff and hand outs. Its a third world mentality breeding dishonest people.

I have been to Haiti twice. I was not talking about the inhabitants. The country has the smell of humanity. It is a dirty country. I do not know the current political situation.

I was there to help after the earth quake. There is the smell of humanity and it is a very nauseating smell.

The country is very unkept. I do not believe the inhabitants want to be that way, they do not have a choice.

And by the way. After the earth quake, the USA parked an Aircraft Carrier off shore. It was used as a floating hospital. It became the only source for clean water for the inhabitants of Haiti. While we were in Haiti, we drank only bottled water.

I was in Ethiopia for Leptraps. The country was losing over 40% of it corn crop to pest.

The odor of humanity in Ethiopia would take your breath away.

Do people want to live like that? In Ethiopia and Haiti, the inhabitants do not have a choice.

The stench of humanity is overwhelming. These and many other third world countries are Cesspools of humanity.

The vast majority of us on this site have never been to countries like Haiti or Ethiopia, there are even locations in the USA that look like a third world country. There were some places in Kentucky that had the smell of humanity.

I flew home from Ethiopia via London, England. The first order of business upon arrival at my Hotel in London was to take a shower. My dirty clothes were in a black plastic bag. When I returned home Ms Betty washed my clothes. She could not believe the smell.

The lack of infastructor creates major problems for third world countries.

If you live in North America or Europe, consider yourself truly fortunate.

This is for a comparison. My flatulence would seem like breath of fresh air in Haiti.

This wasnt one bad experience, it was 3 seperate occasions where Peruvians stole my money.

One
Two
Three

All from dealing with Peruvians.

Funny how all the good beetles ive acquired out of Peru came from an Australian friend and a gentleman from Belgium.

I put a cork in it. No pun intended.
