His Ornithoptera don't come with CITES permits, so why do run the risk ?...
I also met him in person and he looked fishy to me, I had no interest in doing any further dealings with him. On top of that he gave away my emails to other dealers too without my permission...

The statement 'His Ornithoptera don't come with CITES permits, so why do run the risk ?...' was referring to the fact that 90% of his butterflies and stock are ornithoptera... but yes I saw his Delias add now in the classifieds and know what you are after  You are free to buy from him but I for myself choose not to after meeting him. |

I met him in Indonesia in Jakarta... I did not see his specimen as he did not bring them to the appointment as we previously made out.
He also had a strange way of trying to sell stuff. When I go to meet a customer I present the customer a list of material I have available and offer the customer a price for it. This guy here said what butterflies do you want ? Just mention a species and I will have it...
So I was telling him some common stuff I wanted like Papilio blumei, he checked something an his phone and said oh yes I have them, 350 of them. Then I asked what price he would like and he said we will make that out trough internet and he will send me the butterflies home.
Strange story, isn't it ? I had been very unpleased that day as my time got stolen with this kindergarden...
