hi

personally i would be wary of the site

i would much prefer to get my torts from a uk breeder

the site you mentions does offer some good advice
and some less good advice

but i would not recomend buying imported torts via this or any similar sires

quote taken from their home page


Only sell captive bred tortoises, not wild caught

this statement leaves you feeling the torts are uk captive bred
but some may be
but i think most will not be
then how do you proove they are captive bred or wild caught
this is why i would opt for a uk breeder
the species you want can be found in the uk from reliable experienced breeder
