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.

But all to often readers have seen the hearsay here and until the proof is posted it makes it a one sided story at best. So please stop bringing up the e-mails unless your going to post them for all to see and read out in public.

hank!
on 8/10/04 is when i sent him the bank draft for $2875.00. in our phone conversation i told hank i was sending his money over night for next day delivery, but he told me just to send it priority mail which i did. at that point i asked him when he could ship the 2 female gilas to me. Hank stated he was going to daytona for the venomous show that he puts on, so after he got back he was going to ship. a week after daytona i finally heard from him saying he was going to ship on friday, friday he called and told me he had to put his wife in the hospital because she had bronchitis and they found a lump in her lung. another time he was going to ship and never called for 2 weeks when he called i asked him why he never called me and he told me he lost his cell phone! another time he was going to ship and he called and couldnt because he said he had bronchitis, whenever i talked to hank on the phone i always told him to at least call and let me know what was going on as far the gilas because i was anxious to recieve them! and no there isnt an e-mail saying he recieved my money, but the local authorities have a copy of my bank draft from my credit union after it had cleared his bank. it was cashed on 8/27/04.

I am going to email Hank about this thread too. As we all know Hank has been doing this longer then most of us have been alive lol.
I received the emails about Hank and a few others getting herps stolen from them. I think I still have them.
I have never purchased anything from Hank. But the guy has gone out of his way for me many times. I know this is not like him at all. I feel something is missing here........ Does anyone else get that feeling?
I am not saying Spider is wrong I just have a feeling something is being left out.
but after 10 weeks you should have your herps or money. Unless you agreed to a longer wait. I hope this gets fixed for both parties invovled.........

I for one have no problem believing it!
I have emailed and called Hank on numerous occasions when he has advertised animals that appealed to me.
He never answered my emails, never returned my calls and never answered the phone directly. If he is this hard to get hold of when trying to purchase from him I would NEVER again consider purchasing an animal in case something happened after money was sent (for example - something was wrong with the animals). I prefer to purchase from individuals who consistantly and within a reasonable time frame answer my inquiries.
On a side note, it seems that there have been many threads recently involving "old timers" who have somewhere along the way forgotten that customer relations and honesty are a vital part of any business. Past reputation can only keep you afloat for so long. When your quality or customer relations/service start deteriorating it usually isn't too long before the word gets out that perhaps it would be best to look elsewhere for your purchases.

Hank's reputation!
Hank's reputation doesn't sit well with most of us OLD TIMERS either! I too have tried to get a hold of him to make purchases and was unable. What do expect from someone whose pricelist hasn't changed since the seventies! :-)
