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.

yes, look closely at jims comparison posting as well.
I knew posting photographs would do the trick, I just was surprised that some folks overlooked these facts and went another direction.
such is life, perhaps I may even get an apology out of the deal. who knows....

I have to agree the pics taken of a pefectly sound box, the appearance of the animals being alive and not deceased, and having animals shipped when they're such a short distance away seem hokey to me at best. One more thing is the "live and learn attitude" of the customer. It seems they really aren't all that upset if they're willing to eat a loss of over $500 that easily. Kind of makes me think they didn't lose anything if you get the gist.
I get upset when anyone tries to use TOS to justify "stiffing" a customer. In this situation, however, I don't think this is the case at all. Frankly, I think I'd question everything in exactly the same manner as you have. Now please excuse me while I wipe this egg off my face LMAO.

thanks Greg, that means alot. I wish I could have been more forward with my thoughts on this manner. I hope you can understand why I was prohibited from doing so..... My attorneys are probably still cringing as we speak however if they have read my statements here. lol
I couldnt help myself though, you guys would not take the bait and do it on your own. lol

I am Chuck Norris.
I agree that this matter is a done deal. I doubt that you will hear from these folks again. I read the thread over on that other forum (had to register there just to do so). I wonder if they were deleted after the moderator checked the IP.

I have to agree with Chris on this one. This entire thing smells like a scam to me. The photos of the unopened box is one thing, but who in their right mind would put an animal through the stress of shipping when they only live 30 miles away??
I drove six hours to pick up a BP - not because I wanted to save on shipping, but because I was interested in the actually seeing the breeders other stock, and thought it would be better for the snake.
Just my 2 cents...

go figure....
all I know is that customer cried and whined, threatened legal action QUICKLY, and our immediate response to those words in ANY case, whether we would come through on a claim or not, right or wrong, would be to send it down the line to our attorney. even if we were 110% in the wrong, soon as a customer states that, they get to deal with them. just our policy..... we dont take legal matters with a grain of salt as some do..
regardless, you guys have pretty much stated all I would say myself. my own opinions and beliefs regarding this issue... the very same.
I have also since requested to pick up or receive the doa animals, and never received a response. I wonder why.
anyways, thank you for finally "catching on" guys..... I should have just said screw it, posted the scammer thread, and ignored the wished of our attorney but I guess they have their reasons even though they seem asinine to me...

my requests, numerous, were also IGNORED when asking to confirm that users IP
probably another reason why he failed to visit another forum.... again, who knows. im confident in any case my actions in this matter were sufficient.
