Togolese activities

[kalamay]

Since now advance payments on deliveries of butterflies, moths and beetles to the
well-known togolese hunters arround Kpalimé had nearly always the same result :

The parcel arrived - however the quality of the specimens and the data was poor, the
rest of payment often small - the disappointment on both sides huge.

They seem to have decided to adopt the tansanian, ugandan, cameroonian etc. system !!!

They seem to be satisfied with a downpayment for shipping.

The case :

All of them suddenly come from "The great North" (as the material from the forest area is
meanwhile to be found everywhere cheaper than in Africa) They have all been cheated by the southern
hunters and want to deal directly with overseas.

Actually beware of:

I will publish this ad in the section classifieds lepidoptera as well to give all our good togolese friends
the chance to read it

Hello,

I've recently received hundred Satunriidae from Togo. Forest Missahohoe (south west near the border with Ghana)
The quality is good but the species are quite commun.

I hope it's not a cheater seller.

in a few week I will receive pictures of other Sat that I would chose.
If all species are commun and may become easyly from other african countries, I will let know the name of this "hunter".

We never know. Hope makes life

Best

Hi Philippe,

Thanks for your post. I'm interested in African Saturniidae and would be interested in knowing more information about your "hunter." 

[douala14]

thanks

hello.

Sorry for this long delay to answer.

In fact I have well received a 100 specimens from TOGO (NiSSAHOE FOREST : South West near the border of Guana). I will never know if these species really come from ther or from another country or place. I have to trust him.

Quality is good (90% A1 or A1-, 10% A2 or less). But the problem is the same with every African sellers : only 10 differents species. All really commun.

The price was 100€ so nothing to say.

About speaking with him : he always ask to sell others package. He tells me he can get everything I want. I send him picture and he always answer me OK I can hace it.
I still wait this new famous package since 2 month

A friend of mine had more chance with several package with more "good" species and some good coleopteras

His name is ROSELINE DOGA. You can find him on FB

[civix001]

I want to add that I do not consider him as a scammer. For me it was good for the price.

Hi,
Roseline seems to be a woman name. So I cannot find him on FB

This sounds like one of the standard scams which have been discussed many times on this forum.

Many times. Asking for more money after a deal is struck is a red flag, professionals know what they're doing, the honest and the dishonest.
Let alone a semi-plausible excuse like an illness in the family.

Actually I’ve been in the hospital since last night my old mom is seriously ill so I’m asking you to help me so I can pay for the products for her and save her life?

'Dear Mr ______,I'm so sorry your mother is ill. I would be happy to help her a little once the order that I've paid for has arrived and I've had a chance to sell some of them.......'

I have helped a few dealers and friends on occasion who I have come to know and value them.
