Yeah, they are okay, but I always find their staff a little 'off', if I am being honest, and on top of that, have you ever noticed how their shop always looks shut, because of the absence of lighting?

Yeah, it is pretty dark in there. Some of the staff are a bit snotty but the girl who served us was really good...mind you, she left two weeks later to be a dog groomer
Serpentus will go out of their way to help and are happy to talk all day. Would defo go there again, just wish it was closer.

Yeah, there are one or two who have manners, however, I was in there about two months ago, and several members of their staff were engaged in a full blown argument. The guys that work in the shop, they are the one's that appear to create the bad atmosphere, and as a customer, nothing puts me off more than that.

Too true, embarrassing as well. Nothing worse than being made to feel like you're bothering them. I think we were just lucky that the girl who served us was helpful. We should all put our pennies together and open our own shop. Shoe 'em how it's done!

All the girls that worked there were fine, but the guys need to get a life or a girlfriend, or both, as they have a serious bad attitude. They are a public facing business, you DO NOT have a full scale arguement in front of customers with that sort of business.

Serpentius is the opposite, they are uber friendly.

They still should have snapped up my offer to work for them for free though, I mean FREE!

Just wanted something I was interested in to do of a weekend, and since I live about ten mins away from them, I could have brought them new custom as well - *shrugs*.

Mind you, I also offered my services, via e mail, to the Waterworld in Fife. As a volunteer. Never even got a reply. Bad manners that.

I feel like a leper!

serpentus is closed on a tuesday! its their only day off
back open today
if the sign said it was open then this was probably a wee mistake.they must of forgotton to change it monday night.
if you asked serpentus for a job and they said no this is probably because they have a few people working there already they'd end up with more workers than customers if they said yes to everyone.
hope you get ya micro crix today

whats the prob ppl have had with neon gecko?!? we only hve 1 shop down here and its awful, simply awful. and so we must travel to glasgow, never had any probs @ neon gecko tho.

we are working on getting funds together to open a rep shop down in ayrshire to give people an alternative as we feel that they deserve it.

not everyone has an isue with neon gecko... some do some dont...

i dont like how they house up to THREE corns of toally different size together and no that isnt just when they are cleaning.. they are ok with their beardies... .. but housing buddys two males in with their own breeding stock when they were being boarded there is REALLY against what i feel should be provided within boarding arrangements...

IF a rep shop wishes to also do a sideline in boarding an animal it should be suitable quarentined AWAY from the shops own stock or breeding...100% of the time and if thats not possible then simply do not take on the animal and board it... how would buddy have felt if the shops beardies had in any way had an ilness and passed it on.. or even attacked the new male dragons because of territory issues...

.. to me thats irresponsible..

I also once bought a lizard from them and they said it was CB... it wasnt it was wild caught which they later admitted... it turned out to have a parasite and died... i went and told them and the answer i got was...

OH that happens..

WELL YES i KNOW it happens but surely a .....sorry about that.. or a small appology would have been more appropriate..

so thats basically two small issues.. the other issues are only second hand from people ive heard discusing them..

I really like one of the wee guys that works there... and at times they seem ok.. but theres not enough good to balance out the other side...

My mate bought a beardie at crimbo... fom their paisley shop... he was quoted 390 for viv and beardie with equipment.. i listed what he REALLY needed as what they had suggested was ludicrous and they hadnt even sold him ANY thermostats for the bulbs etc... I told him to go back with the new list as if he knew what he was talking about instead of being a novice ...

the guy serving said ....and i quote..

OH u seem to know your stuff... yeah you dont need a heat mat or this or that we just usually sell them to beginners anyway... i can do you the lot for 250

I mean thats terrible service for starters in the hobby...
