JERRY TRESSER--BAD GUY- the worst kind

He then replied that he wasn't going to send replacements and that he would no longer accept emails from me.

I sent Jerry 2.4 Sauvegi Frogs from Paraguay.
These 2.4 were sent to him without payment processed due to the fact that he had a good "reputation" and was an "old timer"...
...We realize we never even got his card information, so call him up to finalize deal. He doesn't pick up.
He doesn't pick up for DAYS.
... I go up to him and ask him about the payment on the frogs. I had to remind him which frogs, and he said oh they all died, I am not paying for them.
No proof of bodies, no contacting us to let us know, no answering calls, no anything from him till I surprised him at Ben's shop. .

Now there's an unintentional nugget of truth.

What we have here is a pattern of behavior. Several examples of you choosing to disregard your obligation to follow through with business transactions that you willingly entered into, while hiding behind lame, and likely false, rationalizations to justify not paying up.

It's interesting to make note of all the cited comminucation issues people have had with you. Surely, it's just a series of coincidences that people have had so much trouble getting ahold of you to collect what they're owed. I guess they're all liars, and you're the innocent victim here, right?

Just in case you'd decide to whine that your other Bad Guy thread is irrelevant to this one (assuming you're willing to abandon your childish passive-aggressive choice to not acknowledge most people posting), you'd be incorrect. Unlike the unrelated gibberish you keep spewing, in regards to Ben's recent contest; the other thread is another shining example of said modus operandi.

I'd be surprised to find that you don't cringe self-consciously whenever you type words such as "trust" and "honour".

If you put the TV on a payment plan...you are still required to pay it off even though the TV is no longer working and not under warranty.

But it goes one step even further than that in ridiculousness because bringing in the broken TV is at least proof (well, not that you didn't break it yourself but it's something) whereas this is like going in without the broken TV, telling them that it broke, and refusing to pay. The police would probably be called for theft.

Sorry Lucille. I meant $900 not $800. ( These new overnight shifts are killing what brain cells I had)

Oh yes, my apologies! I was assuming that in the case of a broken TV from Walmart or Best Buy that said TV was brought back and proven beyond a doubt that it was broken! If it was within the warranty time period, said TV would be repaired or replaced as per the warranty! (of course only for manufacturers defects...not for the fact you threw a football through the screen)

In Jerry's case...he didnt even bring the animal in, let alone document the issues and give proper notice! Sorry bub. This is one of those times when you gotta own up to the fact that you are SOL....kinda like the guy I saw today peel out at a green light and speed down to road....and failed to see the cop right behind him at the light!

Thought skink was 900.00 and he paid 100.00 when he took it?

My bad, 1000.00 and paid 100.00

Jerry, you've been here for 10 years, made 1000 posts...doesn't it strike you as odd that nobody else in this thread thinks you are in the right?

You clearly owe Ben $900. I can't believe you claim to record phone conversations yet fail to take pictures of a deceased animal you owed money on. I don't think anyone's buying that load of bull.

Did you feel that Jerry?

I just cursed you with a the mother of all karmic curses.

If you don't pay Ben the $900 you owe him by midnight tonight, you will wake up tomorrow morning a bitter old, viagra chugging crank. The bolts on your walker will rust out, and the handicapped placard in your Crown Vic will disappear, forcing you to partake in a long, joint throbbing walk across the Walmart parking lot tomorrow morning when you stock up on your Poise pads and Polydent.

You will also find your rep in this hobby irreparably harmed, forcing you to whore out your raised gilding skills for your melba toast and Swanson's TV dinners.

We all know you are lying Jerry, and lying badly. Pay the man his money and then get the hell out of here.

JERRY--JUST STOP LYING ALREADY--you never offered to pay me a dime-YOU DO KNOW YOU WERE AT AT MY REPTICON TABLE WITH LIKE TEN PEOPLE STANDING AROUND--you offered some animals as partial payment. I refused. I do not want animals from your facility. AND BY THE WAY--who in the world said that monkey tail cost me $500?? Are you nuts--I WISH--I paid more for that lizard so why would I offere it for less? NO LONGER AN OPTION--DO NOT COME IN MY STORE---DO NOT CALL MY EMPLOYEES--IF YOU NEED TO TALK GET IN TOUCH WITH MY LAWYER---PERIOD---at the VERY MINIMUM if we are NICE TO YOU you are looking at triple damages in small claims court. But honestly--the incredible amount of emotional stress you have brought to everyone involved in addition to the UN REMOVABLE PUBLIC LIBEL I would not be surprised if you are on the hook for FAR FAR more then that. Do you know that spreading misinformation about an open death investigation is a FELONY Jerry? Thats even if you say it! YOU WROTE IN ON THE BOI!!- Get back to the topic and hand and while your at it I am curious to know about the snakes at sunset deal that you have not even addressed? ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT

The point is Ben never thinks things out intellegiently and has this easy going aura of being to subborn to know when a good deal to resolve a problem is before his eyes.... Why ? The answer is very simple. Ben like to fish, and he is an absentee employer.

KEEP THEM COMING JERRY!!!! IM LOVING ALL THIS LIBEL!!!---you used to be a cop correct? Are you really this stupid? I have lots of friends that are cops and they are all pretty smart dudes. You do realize at this point you have established all neccessary criteria to prove extensive libel damage correct? Potentially even criminally at this point making untrue statements about an open investigation to what? throw people off your trail? YOUR DONE TRESSER__BETTER GET BACK TO YOUR GUILDED WRITING OR WHATEVER ELSE IT IS THAT YOU DO BECAUSE YOU HAVE WORN YOUR WELCOME OUT IN THE REPTILE BUSINESS.
