Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

also, I emailed from a new address so I think I will hear back and tell you how it goes, but regardless, what he's done by keeping me waiting for 6 months is wrong and I will recomend anyone and everyone to stay away from him. Thats what has happened to me.

and one final thing, I'ld never scam or "take" someone. If you would email some of the people I've done bussiness and sales/trades with you'll see how everyone was satisfied and recieved 100% what they wanted. There was one person even who wanted a monitor of mine, and I held it for them for months and answered numerous questions and spent lots of time trying to help them so they could take the best care of it, i don't like people to think I would ever scam them, as that Is something I would never do,,, especially after what has happened to me in the past.
Thanks,
-Omar

Omar:
There seems to be a question about the paperwork, and it seems significant.
While YOU want to 'get it over' as quickly as possible, the buyer may very well want to settle it properly, he thought he was getting one thing but then had valid questions about the paperwork.
In my personal opinion the way to solve that problem is not to ignore the paperwork and drop the price; rather the paperwork should be validated and the sales prices honored. Was there indeed a problem with the papers? Do you have emails that state he was to pay so many dollars for these specific snakes with verified paperwork?
Calling him a scam artist is not likely to get him to negotiate with you. In addition, unless we see more evidence, the fact that he ceased negotions when you dropped the selling price instead of providing evidence that the paperwork you sent was indeed genuine, is not dispositive of a scam. Rather, the purchaser has placed back on you the responsibility of verifying the truth of what YOU told him about the snakes he purchased.
Let's see the emails for the original deal; and scan the papers and post them as well.

This whole thing sounds a little odd to me. Dropping the price from $700 to $250, waiting 6 months to make a post about it and the procrastination of posting the e-mails just doesn't add up.

Since you only have, at the time I am writing this, 25 posts, I went back and reviewed them.
It seems strange to me that on 1/18, only about a week ago, you called ANOTHER vendor a scammer; and posted another deal you had where apparently you have been waiting months for the deal completion. On that thread also there is no evidence.
Many of the readers of the BOI are experienced and sophisticated when it comes to reptile deals. Give details rather than simply calling names.

Seems to me that this smacks of intrigue...I am not following the "logic" of these transactions...no proof, no paperwork, and odd dealing...??????

Well he agrees to give me a trio of blackthroats monitors now.... Months later they still haven't showed up, so I get mad and email him,,, but he never replies, so I SAY JUST SEND ME 250!,,, yet he still doesn't reply! I don't know what to do,,, other than recomend ALL OF YOU TO NEVER BUY FROM THAT SCAM ARTIST SON OF A B*** EVER! I BELIEVE HE STILL PUTS ADS ON KS, AND I ADVISE YOU NOT TO BUY FROM HIM, I REPEAT DON'T BUY FROM JASON BRENNA AT GOTMICE! HE IS A SCAM ARTIST AND OWES ME MONEY AND OR ANIMALS!....?

I'm confused, if it was originally a cash deal for your 4 snakes, why did you send them prior to receiving the funds? I could understand if it was a trade and you agreed to ship first, but I haven't heard of sending snakes first and then getting paid.
There are really a lot of "gaps" in this story. You need to provide ALL of the e-mails, and it wouldn't hurt to hear the other side of the story from Got Mice. Has anyone notified him of this thread?
