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.

Neil,
The skepticism is to be expected given Sal's history.
But if he really can turn the corner, I'll be the first to welcome him.
Thank you for all you've done and I hope Sal thanks you as well for helping him to recognize the opportunity he now has in front of him.

what about Kevin Hood (me)
When I originally posted on the thread concerning "Anyone dealt with Boca Reptiles" Sal was upset that I posted. I am the one that bought all of his Boa Breeders that I had to put down do to IBD. I contacted Sal by phone and he said if I faxed all supporting vet documents he would work something out with me. I did. He said that the vet records definately showed a pattern and that he would work something out with me because he needed a few days. I thought that was reasonable and immediately posted on that forum that Sal was going to work this out with me. Well, he never did. I paid him almost $5000.00 for those animals that I lost. I wasn't even expecting a full refund nor was I expecting reimbursement for the vet records. He gave me nothing. SO IS HE REALLY GOING TO SETTLE UP WITH EVERYONE?

almost forgot. Neil, if you don't remember who I am, I am the one that you actually collected the money from on your credit card machine for Sal. Paypal would not let me send Sal directly all that money because it was so much and I had never used Paypal before. Instead, Sal contacted you. I gave you my ccard info and you charged it. You then sent Sal the money. Hope that clears anything up if you don't remember me.

Mike.... you wrote....
"Thank you for all you've done and I hope Sal thanks you as well for helping him to recognize the opportunity he now has in front of him."
You KNOW that I like you, we've never had any problems between us, and we've always had good conversations at the Tampa Shows.... but....
As far as most of the people on this site are concerned, it doesn't matter if he pays off every debt he owes (as I have).... things will NOT change for him (or me) in the minds of anybody on this site (maybe you, but who knows).... he's not doing it to get back in good graces, he's doing it because I pounded it into his head that it was the right thing to do, period.... SOME people see the light, and they TRY to change their ways, and do things the RIGHT way (as both of us have), but it won't add up to a hill of beans with MOST of the people here.... but it really doesn't matter to us what they think.... WE know what's right.... and it's the right thing to do....
Kevin.... you'll have to take that up with Sal.... what the two of you decide to do, is your business, I just made him see the light.... how he continues from here on out, is up to him....

He really IS a nice guy that just had a bad couple of years, which he wants to make up for and move forward with his business....
He also DOES own every animal on his Breeder's Page, and he will send anyone an immediate picture of him holding any one of them at your request, just to prove it....

Neil. As you suggested, I am speaking up on this site. I would like to know if I am going to be taken care of as well, just as you have stated.

Well hallelujah! Actually you did more than that. You collected the money from Kevin and facilitated the transaction.
You see Neil, you champion yourself as a crime fighter and preach ethics to the users of this site and then you turn around and assist the biggest con artist to ever sell a snake with his business.
Sal finally made a relatively small refund of a transaction that he should have resolved a long time ago. That doesn't make him a hero and it doesn't earn him the trust of most intelligent individuals when he still owes thousands of dollars to his victims. He only did it because he's trying to start a new business and he can't shake that old Sal stink.
He's a grown man that's afraid to come here and defend himself and now he feels persecuted because he made the bed that he's now forced to lay in.
Give us a break with your BS and try not to hurt yourself patting yourself in the back so hard.

Now Neil, that was little uncalled for. I just figured since you seem to always be defending and talking for HIM, that you might grace us with a pic of your fine friend that's all. Nothing tough about it buddy.
