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.

I've already told you that I think you got scammed, but I'd still like to hear from him.

Ok if u want to send a pm urself or something so he see's this then go ahead. And the only reason I'm saying that is because mine was a female, 4 , and has the same EXACT patterning.

Dylan, I feel really bad about what you've gone through in this transaction.
Also, at 15 years of age, you need to seek adult guidance before going ahead with transactions. You said you have family with 20+ years of snake experience, and a mod on this site is a family friend...those can be very valuable resources for you to utilize. The inconsistencies in this guy's stories were so glaring...
His balls changed weights significantly 3x's- from 200-300 grams to 1500-2500 grams to 800-1200 grams.
His piebald was actually a mojave pied??? And he only claimed a $300 price difference? And he's the one asking you for a hookup with balls?
He claimed to have roughly $10K(rough estimate) in animals, yet is unemployed and can barely add $100 to make the trade even.
I also seem to recall him claiming that a pied x normal pairing will produce pieds.
I really do feel for you, as this could have easily been avoided. It really sucks to see someone so blatantly take advantage of a young person. Hopefully this situation is able to be rectified.
If you could copy and paste all e-mails(minus the profanity) or provide screenshots, that would provide a much more solid foundation for your accusations. A pic of your retic while in your possession would help as well...and maybe if the link you provided to this guy's ad isn't accessible, maybe a mod can pull it up and post it on here.

So, Mark, there at the end.....
You probed the snake to be male, so you need to change the ad, but you traded it to a guy in Florida, so the ad is coming down?

Good God. Punctuation is your friend. If both of y'all could type properly it would be a lot easier to understand this whole mess.
Dylan, where is your reciept of shipment from SYR? If you did ask for signature on delivery, it will show up there.
Mark, if you knew he was shipping the animal, why was no one there to recieve it? If you knew the neighborhood was "bad" why would you not be outside waiting like a hawk to grab that box as soon as it showed up? Also, what is your primary dysfunction in regards to trying to pressure the OP into shipping snake via USPS? Are you out of your mind or just that plan daft? Why did you fail to ship on the same day he did? It was just coincidence you did not make it to the hub and then his snake just HAPPENS to vanish from the porch? I don't buy it.
Also, why is your ad pulled down? You just happened to suddenly trade it to a guy in Florida?
Can we get a mod. to pull it back up and lock it so the two animals can be compared?
All I see is a scammer, too bad this poor kid was not able to see it.

Another inconsistency...before we know it, the one he traded will have been his "super tiger paradox purple phase albino" retic that he took a loss on because it was such a super high end snake. This guy seems to be a low life who likes making up stories to rip kids off. A shame really...
