Aren't you the stickler for details!
Interesting thread for discussion, thank ML! The add says they are 'farm bred', so I would go with 'other'. An interesting looking other. Makes for an good discussion, but unfortunately you can never be sure with BTS like that - don't know the history, can't see the parents.
For the sake of discussing, I do see some nice Merauke in the banding and colors. Light underbelly and front legs look scincoides to me. Wish I knew what the parents looked like!

Just my best uneducated guess.

I though I saw a indo face, but I could be mistaken. The markings just said "Meruke" to me.
