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.

It is possible to post screenshots with account numbers blacked out and still show the pertinent information about the transaction. No one wants your private info, but a screenshot of a single line for this specific transaction, all other info blacked or blurred out will not harm anyone or give away your info. It isn't hard to do and the evasiveness just makes you look uncooperative.

It looks like their screen name is a preview of their post content.

I'd like to add in my own awful experience with James Church. The timeline goes as follows:
May 3rd, 2017- After discussing the types of cages that will be ordered we agree on the process for payment, 2/3 down, and the final 1/3 payed a week before shipment. The invoice is paid the following day, at the total of $1,382.66. It's a large custom order, and will be shipped to SoCal.
May 9th, 2017- The final drafts for the build spec sheets are submitted to me, I approve them and he orders the necessary supplies.
May 17th, 2017- The materials arrive.
May 24th, 2017- Fabrication begins. I also receive an estimate of when it will be completed, as well as when I should expect it to be shipped. I take this with a grain of salt.
June 1st, 2017- I receive pictures of the cages from him. I'll admit, they look fantastic, and I'm really excited.
June 6th, 2017- I ask him when he plans to ship, he says it's likely they'll go out tomorrow, contingent on the arrival of RHP panels I had also ordered from him, that I'm guessing he gets from a third party.
June 11th, 2017- I ask for an update, the panels arrived late, but the shipment should be going out soon.
June 14th, 2017- The shipment goes out.
June 17-20th, 2017 I ask for an update, wanting to know when I should expect it to arrive. I know shipping freight can take a while, but at this point I've received no shipping invoice, or tracking number. He say's I should expect it by Friday, and that he'll call me when they're approaching...
June 23rd, 2017- Friday comes and goes... I still have not received my shipment.
June 24th, 2017- James tells me that the driver is still in Wyoming. I insist on getting the drivers contact info, as well as some kind of invoice number. The phone number in the screenshot doesn't go to any kind of delivery service, but rather, to a carpenter in Cranston, RI...
July 1st, 2017- I've been in communication with James, but neither of us know where the driver is until now. James is confident he'll arrive on Wednesday with my shipment, even confirming a time...
July 5-7th, 2017- Another no show. The shipment is now two weeks late. I confront James about my suspicions that nothing has even shipped yet, and ask for some kind of hard proof that it has. I understand that he runs a small business, so I know that accommodating an order like mine can be difficult.
