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.

Black Panther Zoological Supply
About a year ago, I started buying wholesale supplies from Black Panther Zoological Supply. The products are amazing, which is why I'm hesitant to make this a "bad guy" post and I would be interested in working with them again. In fact, that's my troubles. Their customer service is horrendous, their shipping is slow and rarely did I get everything I ordered. It would always be two weeks after the fact once I got my order that I would learn what I paid for wasn't in stock. They stopped all communications with me after they assured I'd get my $80 credit on moss and leaf litter that I never received. SO! Question is has anyone else had these problems or has been able to get a hold of them?

How long ago was this? If more than 30 days I would request a refund. If you don't get a response in a few business days then start the chargeback process from your credit card company.

It has been well close to a year... I didn't push buttons then because I still wanted to continue to order from them. So I think that option flew out the window long ago.

How can the products be too good if you don't receive them?

Well they didn't say they received nothing, just that their orders were short.

Chris, asking to receive the items that you paid for isn't pushing buttons.
Also, keep in mind that business people here generally need you (the consumer) more than you need them.
If a seller were so irrational as to refuse to sell to you, simply because you refused to pay for items that you didn't receive, would you really want to keep sending them your money anyway?

I agree! But I didn't want to try and have a forced refund through the credit card company. They said they would honor the money owed on my next order so I took that offer and attempted to make another order which was when I never heard back from them. At the time I thought everything was being handled between the two of us, apparently that wasn't the case.
As for their products, I did receive quite a bit of material from them. Their moss is beautiful and healthy, my geckos love the food and I have no real complaints about any of the products and neither do my customers. But every shipment there was a problem in addition to taking forever to get. I'd get the wrong products or not enough and sometimes none at all of what I ordered. With a $500 minimum order to get the price break my business demands, it starts to hurt when you have to not only wait to begin with but then wait to have it corrected. Up until my very last shipment everything had been made right in time and there was no loss to me other than time. My very last order was an absolute mess. It came in small shipments over a month period and I never received it all. They then informed me that I didn't receive everything because what I ordered wasn't in stock and I would have a credit on my next order for what I didn't get.

Sounds like you were nice and gave them the benefit of the doubt. You were an excellent customer! And yet they don't seem to be repaying your patience very well. I would look for another supplier, but hopefully they will refund you or make good on what they still owe you.
