Never heard of him before, so if he is legitimate, he is probably not a big breeder. I assume you are in Germany? What species are you after?

Ah OK, legally importing them will cost a lot from a foreign breeder, about $700 US minimum per tortoise probably, so you'd be best getting them from a local breeder.
