Ah ah, you know, it's absurd Trenor. Seriously I think I got what happened for real in that joke comment of before.@Chris LXXIX
I was just surprised at how often the Italy ban ended up in those types of posts (bites/escapes) when the cause of the ban (imports) had very little to do with the topic (other than sometimes governments can make dumb laws when they are poorly informed).
I mean, I can't help myself: they spotted those at the airport. Ok. But if the shipment was with full right papers etc why decide for a ban?
But if that was a no paper brown boxing shipment (which I don't think because no one was busted on the Italian side, but let's say) again, why put a ban for something that was legal no matter? Would had been reasonable to freeze the importing man/guys and took that only
I'm saying this because prior to the ban, breeder/keepers had shops and sold those, in pure light of the day. I bought my first T's in '92, as a teen, in one of those shops. T's were everywhere for display, and you can't sold in an official legal shop illegal things/stuff, shops are controlled as we know, inspected etc and huge parcels, imported (mostly by Germany) arrived on a regular basis (I've saw those one day, the shopkeeper opened that in front of me... the first time I saw a huge 0.1 P.cambridgei and was impressed ) so really my guess is:
first was a meh in pure Italian style, after (politicians/governments changes etc) only for that they freaked out and ruined everything.
Your opinion? (aside Italy absurdity of course)
