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.

Maybe I'd elevate myself by simply calling more folks "non-viable human beings"
On a side note ......... Dennis, a poster in a different thread pointed out that the USPS is still a major carrier of chicks, etc. I had thought that they still were, although I would still assume that liscensing and packaging requirements exist. My only point earlier was to back some folks off of the description of the shipments here as having been "illegal", and in the case of one poster, using such "illegal practices" to smear the integrity of both parties. There's more than enough here to draw conclusions regarding character without what I saw as misinformation.

Both parties have made mistakes here..no denying that. But I think at the end of the day, Sara came thru with her end of the deal and James didn't. While the shipping concerns are certainly valid and merit discussion..I'd also like to see some discussion on how this is going to be made right. You seem to love the diversions that are taking place with back-and-forths about shipping and such as it takes the direct focus off of you..how about addressing the root of the problem, James. You dropped the ball. What are you going to do about it?

Did you mean exCerpts and grammAr, Jim? Just trying to help..as always

Yes, but the fact as to whether she got the second box or not is what I'm questioning. First post said she didn't, UPS threw it out... then later she talks about how she DID get it and threw it out herself, and how all of the rodents were overpacked, etc...

My understanding is that the second box Never got there. I believe there were rodents in both boxes and the ones in the box that actually arrived were overpacked and dead. It was hard to pick thru alot of that gibberish though..can you link us with the post where she states that she DID receive the second box?

I just woke up, and will answer any question you might have. Bear with me.
I posted the tracking Number so people could see for themselves. I received box#1 on Saturday. If the tracking number on line had updated on my screen better, i was going to drive out and get it the second it touched ground at the airport, saving the rats from 5 or so more hours in transit. The second package, that UPS said over the phone was routed through Harrisburg for some reason, never left NC. And was disposed of Monday morning.
package one: 5 balls and 15 dead rats. package one: all other rodents.
Cat_72: I'm very sad to hear you will never sell or buy from me, I am not hiding anything. As for the ebay thing, That is why i left and never came back. I delt with scammer after scammer and lost a lot of money when my paypal was hacked into. but that was going on 2? years ago! Some people on there leave scary feedback!
I suggest that James doesn't contact me unless it's with a tracking number or ticket stub, letting me know when he'll be here. He may shoot tresspassers, but anyone is still welcome in my part of town.

DAND: yes, he still lives with his family. On more than one occasion i called and tried to get his family members to pressure James into doing the right thing. They just blew me off. Probably had been getting a lot of calls from people he failed ship to.

IMO you should have left his family out of this and not harassed them. This is between you and him, no one else. I would have blown you off as well.

I agree, but when you call and ask to speak with James and get a snotty remark "well, he's right here, but can't walk 3 feet to the phone because he's ignoring you" What would you have done? When you call at noon and they say that the package is going out today and then call back at 6:01pm and they are still there and say that they were too late at the UPS store to ship today, what would you have done? [this happened monday, tuesday, wednesday and thrusday] He was 'a couple minutes' too late to the store that day to ship.

Actually one of the best ways to get a scumbag to do right is to put pressure on his family.
You obviously are not well versed in collection or business. Best to avoid you until you mature, I'd say.
