Received a beautiful baby Greek tortoise from TT, and she was home in less than 24 hours, and I'm in CA in the other side of the country. Also well taken care of and in good health - she was shipped with a heat pack to keep her warm, which is reassuring. Very happy with my tortoise and Tortoise Town!
We got the turtle but not the supplies and habitat. Then I got a notice that the shipping was canceled and no one has reached out to me or let me know what was going on. No one will return my calls and I'm very angry.
1 male common hatchling snapper DOA. The female extremely lethargic or deathly ill. They are EXTREMELY hard to reach by phone, email, social media or anything else. I either get dial tones, mailbox is full, dead lines or emptiness. Did NOT send me tracking number until 2hrs prior to arrival, and even then it wasn't them. But UPS who sent me it. They also did not tell me how or when my other products that i ordered would be shipped. Not to mention how they only labeled the LIDS as the sex of the turtle. So if you or they get the kids mixed up? Tough $#*!.
I will sue them for a refund if i have to. Bastards
I ordered a baby (well developed) red eared slider on Dec 7th at 12:00pm with around a 50$ "overnight fee" to make the total around $154.00. I received the turtle Dec 13th. She is a happy healthy baby turtle, and exactly what we wanted, but I wish there was more information about possible delays and them not shipping Thursday-Sundays. It's is for the animals safety of course, but I would have ordered sooner if I had know this information. Overall very happy and would use them again.
I was told they sent photos, no record of them, it took almost 5 weeks and they finally sent me to some other company that is associated with them. They(T. Town) said they would contact, send pictures, get back to me and I was the one who kept recontacting them to respond. TERRIBLE COMMUNICATION, I feel I was misled or given false information. Today I get an e-mail saying they don't have what I wanted. It took them 5 misleading e-mails/ 5 weeks to tell me that and this info came from another company associated with them,CB Reptile. I had to get on the phone, request photos again, and their response was we have been working hard on your order. This was adding insult to insult. NEVER AGAIN, look elsewhere. I now do not have any faith in this business!
I was looking for a Giant Leopard tortoise. Not easy to find. Tortoisetown had one. Now I must admit I would have loved to have seen a picture first. BUT Brian said he had a perfect female and that's what I got! Just beautiful! I plan to purchase a male in the near future. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another tortoise from Tortoisetown!
I recently ordered an African Spurred Tortoise (Sulcata) hatchling and he (I'm guessing) is doing soooo good. He came sooner than expected and he is just the happiest little tortoise I've ever seen! He LOVES his cactus and he loves just exploring. He isn't shy he even lets me pet his little head and under his chin already. This is easily the best purchase I've made all year! I plan on buying a lizard from them next. Oh they also have an amazing staff!
I ordered a well started east Herman's tortoise October 7. I received an email on the Monday 11th telling me my tort would ship overnight and arrive by 10.30am on the 12th. Sure enough just as they said I received my tort safe and well before 10.30. He is healthy and started eating well second day after he arrived. I personally will not hesitate to recommend from tortoise town.
My first experience with tortoise town I purchased a box turtle that I was unaware I was not allowed to have shipped to my state, did anyone email me or call to let me know I could not purchase the turtle no. It took 3 days of calling and emails to find out I had to purchase another turtle. My second experience with tortoise town I ordered a turtle I know I'm allowed to have shipped to my state. Turtle never ships for three days I called to get no answer and not be able to leave a message, as well as emails no response. Not until I demanded a refund and threatened to report them to the BBB of New Jersey did I get a response from them with a refund and no explanation. I would never order another animal from them again. I would recommend not dealing with this company if you want to deal with professionals.
I ordered a male Ambanja Panther Chameleon, he was delivered and was packaged well and warm. He went straight into his terrarium and ate and drank and has been doing well. The delivered what was guaranteed.
Answer: Very difficult, Tortoise Town seldom does not answer the phones or emails
Answer: I choose Tortoisetown, because of their video relating to the care of the turtles. Also, when I called they answered the phone and had great customer service.
