I know I'm not the only one that has dealt with Darrell, but I'll get the ball rolling.

Darrell freaking rocks my socks. He has found some of the most amazing scorpions I've ever seen come out of Arizona. Not even did he tell me where he did some of his collecting, he even included maps of the collection areas!! He communicates greatly. Packs very well. I can't say enough good about him. If you ever have the chance to do business with him, DO IT. He's awesome.

I've delt with Darrell on several occassions and consider him a good friend...He is very honest and his animals are top notch...I can't say enough good stuff about him. I look forward to doing alot more busimess with him in the future!

aw thanks guys, It is so nice to deal with such cool people and I am the one looking forward to more trading too.
Sincerely,
Darrell

Darrell is quite possibly the best breeder I've dealt with! I ordered a Tityus costatus from him and not only did I get a wonderful specimin but he included some absolutely fantastic freebies...
His communication is wonderful and he's incredibly friendly and helpful! I would highly recommend buying from him!
In fact! if you want an incredible Tityus species that is rare here in the US...get one of his T. costatus. They're awesome!

thanks Darrell!

Darrell send me a package with centipedes and they all arrived alive and well. The packaging was great and the centipedes are very beautifull. He even made sure I have an adult female. I would deal with him again any time.

Thanks again Darrell for all your help in getting my lonely P. transvaalicus a mate.. Hopefully She will have many babies soon. Anybody wanting to do business wth Darrell should,, he really knows his facts, and is very friendly and responds almost immediately to any questions/concerns I have about orders and care of newly acquired scorpions as well as giving me advice on how to better my setups. Can't say enough good stuff about this guy.. Peace out ...Hope to maybe someday go to Arizona to check out what the local fauna has to offer down there, until then keep up the good work..

I just recieved a package from Darralle , he is awesome, I really hooked me up.
Darrell wanted to trade with me for the C. hentzi, he offered me Az desert millipedes for the scorpions. He also hooked me up with some scorpions native there.
5. Vaejovis spinigerus
1 Centruroides exilicauda (gravid at that)
23 desert millipedes

I actually like the millipedes I wouldn't mind having more

His packing is top on the list. He great for throwing in a good extras, he Rocks

I am looking forward on dealling with Him again. If you hadn't them you'll miss out on good quality scorpions and deals from Darrell.

Thanks man for the extra.

I apologise about this being overdue. Darrell was definitely one of the best dealers I have had the pleasure of purchasing from. I recieved 6 wonderful P. nigriventer and a C. limbatus, he was very understanding about me not furnishing payment and sealing the deal for a good three weeks after initial inquiring of species to buy. A very patient and thorough man, I wish him the best in the future and won't hesitate to purchase from him again.

I just recieved a shipment of scorpions from darrelldlc. Very good packing and Grade-A scorpions! Answered all my questions and put up with my emails for a few weeks
He also called a few times to see if we had questions. A VERY good seller. I couldn't recommend him more!
A+++++++++++

Thanks Darrell!!!!!

!!!!!!!POSITIVE!!!!

I know there was already a previous review on Darrel but I'd like to add another one since this guy is just too awesome to deal with!!!

First Darrel was so easy to talk to. Communicating with was easy and he was very friendly

Second, Darrel was FAST! So fast to act and ship my scorps ... I wasn't even ready for them

Third, He's very VERY PROFESSIONAL. The scorps were packed really really well which goes to show his experience in dealing/selling/trading not just his country but internationally as well. This package I received was actually the second package I've seen from Darrell and in both instances everything was done class A!!!

Fourth, his scorps ROCK!!!! These are one of the most beautiful scorps I've seen ... the Centruroides exilicauda scorps are just too beautiful!!! Since I'm new to these scorps, Darrell also gave me some tips on how to house them and take care of them.

Fifth, He gave me more than what I asked for. The extras included were unbelievable... I didn't expect them and was speechless when I saw them .... I originally wanted a Jacksoni and Darrell mentioned he only had a few and was breeding these scorps as well... I didn't expect this but he sent one as well. This is just pure generosity on his part, and even if the jacksoni scorp didn't make it Id like to thank you so much Darrell for being so generous and unselfish !!!!

I know I'm kjnda new to this hobby, but I'm very dedicated to learn everyday and share what I know to those who wanna get in to this passion we all have...
I just wanna thank Darrell for inspiring me more to learn, collect, breed, and trade scorps of all kinds thru these new additions that I have because of him...

Thanks so much bro and hope more and more people get the chance to deal and trade with you and experienced what I've expreineced as well.... God Bless

Darrell Definitely needs some feedback on our transaction. I purchased some P. nigriventer from him back in Febuary and couldn't have been happier with how they arrived and how they're doing now. Thanks budd

Just did an in person deal w/ Darrell, one of many, He has shipped for me, took me collecting, gave me some great deals on bugs, and been a first class friend to boot, darrell will do whatever he can for you and then try and think of more he can do for you, No kidding guys/gals one of the nicest folks you'll ever meet, his info is sound,as are his insights into the hobby, if you are fortunate enough to buy from Darrell you are buying from one of the best!!!!!!, PEACE Bro, B.

he's right about Darrell

POSITIVE!

Wow...what can I say? I just completed a trade with Darrell and this is probably the best trade I have completed yet. The packing was excellent, the communication was excellent, and the animals were even better! Darrell hooked me up big time...I was amazed when I opened the box today. I cannot wait until I can deal with him again. To say that I highly recommend him would be the understatement of the year!!

Darrell friggin ROCKS!

This will most certainly NOT be my last time purchasing scorps from Darrell! I ordered 6 scorps and got 2 freebies. I could barely believe my eyes! Derrell never left me guessing for a second what was going on, and kept in touch the whole way through. Oh, and with all the orders I've received I have NEVER seen ANYONE pack with even comparable attention to detail! I not only recommend Darrell, I commend him! I'll most certainly be back for another "arachno-fix"! Thank You, Sir!!!

Darrell is great, knowledgable above expectations and tells the best stories, has great specimens and the ones we got from him are very healthy. from the pedes to the T's, just perfect. the packing was top notch and even the suprise freebies...very cool hey, Thank you for your professionalism!!! Hat's Off!

great guy to do business with! supurb packing, great to talk to and even better scorpions! i cant say enough good things about him! thanks alot for the scorps!

-ALan

DARRELL ROCKS! WAY POSITIVE!

Darrell has integrity and honor (I can't spell today). He's the real deal.

++++Positive++++

I drove 45 minutes down to Cortis Junction to meet up with Darrell and pick up some arizonensis from him...his specimens were great and he gave me some nice feebies...he's a great guy to do business with...

Thanks Darrell,
Jason

Darrell is better than any store. I wish he was still around. If and when he comes back I'll be looking foward to buying scorps from him again. (this review is way overdue)
