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 have bought one time and time only from Tony. I bought a brazilian rainbow boa that was misrepresented in pics with tons of red. After shipping was arranged, I received a package that low and behold contains a a hypo boa with a spinal kink. My snake was in florida and the guy in florida's snake was here in Louisiana. I had the hypo boa out the same day back on the truck to florida. I got my brazilian a week later and kept it for two sheds where I later sold it for $50 of feeder rodents, an experience of misfortune and customer service that I will never forget.

that's so funny Tracy, I even forgot something about him although the ad said shipping included. After receiving the wrong snake. After talking to Tony on the phone, I called DHL, I filled out the packing slip using his account number that I saw on the hypo that was sent to me and made sure his snake was going to the right location. Either you should have one box open at a time or you should pay attention more, he said that sometimes it happens and I really wasn't that mad at that point. Tony assured me that the guy in florida knew how to keep brazilians and I said I hope so cuz 84 degrees might kill it Tony and most people keep hot spots of 88 for boas and I said I would be kinda p-oed if I got mites from that guy too but another reassurance he have me. Healthwise, the snake was great when arrived. About 3 weeks later I received a bill from DHL (Tony's shipper for all the deliveries), but this bill was from the date (like $53) of when I received the hypo with the spinal kink and both deliveries were not by 9 or 10 am but either 12 or 1 pm or whatever DHL offers. I e-mailed Tony and I don't remember if he responded or not but I didn't get anywhere with him on that as I ended up calling DHL myself and telling them, if you want your money then you bill Tony for it not me. Never heard from either one of them again and I'm happier for it.

Sure there is usually two or more sides to a story but when Tony doesn't show up to tell his and we have a number of other folks telling us that Tony's a Scum Bag. Now add in your response and we have a no show and someone without much of a reputation on one side and a lot of good folks on the other. Gee ya don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out that you and Tony are pretty much out there in left field all by your lonesome.. Randy

Maybe you missed the last few threads and the fact that a resolution was posted on this thread. I have purchased from Tony in the past as well and didn't have any problems. After the last few transactions posted, I think anyone would have second thoughts. Since it is reported here that Tony is out of business, buying from him should be a mute point.
