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.

Carson Phelps strikes again
Carson Phelps strikes again .
I contacted Carson about the Lucy retic he has for sale on kingsnake for $8k last week to see if he would be interested in a trade for 5 of my snakes including a high white pied , goldenchild, Carmel albino , Dh albino pied and a couple burms and some cash . He agreed to do the trade and I needed to ship first which is fine until I read about him on the bio ..LOL
So I contacted him at we agreed to ship the same time next day service and of course he didn't follow through and I was very very pissed off . The guy had enough nerve to tell me he didn't ship and still asked for a tracking number on his new free animals...
But I'm lucky to say my good Karma came through as I was checking flights to pay him a visit the local ups store I use called me and apologized because for some reason my box had not been picked up or scanned in and it was still at the store ... He He
I knew I was taking a risk but it was worth it for a Lucy ... LOL I just figured the risk was a little less since I'm a world known top custom bike builder and I have customers in pretty much every state including a guy 20 miles from Carson that he definitely would not want to meet on bad terms ..

I have had many very pricy buys, sells and especially trades with Carson, and despite some of the not so flattering threads here, have had nothing but success and actual pleasure doing business with Carson. We've had deals that have taken a year to complete on both our ends, and he has never let me down and has always come through. I don't know what went wrong with your deal with him, but all I can say is that he has treated me with respect and fairness, and I'll continue my business relationship with him.

Can you post any/all emails between you two?
Also, have you notified him of this thread?

In my opinion, it appears that the OP is engaging in what looks to me like a "pressure tactic."
He has stated that the deal didn't go though, and that he's found threads that make him happy about his "luck." Yet, he seems to STILL want the deal to go though although he's posted a bad guy thread?
I must be missing something...

seems the op is more than willing to break the law in order to get what he wants.

Until the OP show's some proof (receipt/tracking number) that he did attempt to ship his animals, he really has no argument or complaint against this guy.
Right now, there's no proof that the OP even attempted to ship his animals. Word against word...not really acceptable on the BOI from what I've seen...

I recently was supposed to meet with Carson and sell him a package of pastel female balls. He came up with excuse after excuse. I bought these animals to resell to him and explained to him hey I'm laying my money out we need to meet up asap. But he gave me 3different excuses and bailed numerous times
