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.

"Mitchell" from Texas (Inquiry)
Heres the story. I purchased a 100% Het. Pied Ball Python Male on Feb. 7 of this year from Shane Congdon In Ct. The snake is supposed to have been bred by this guy Mitchell in Texas who is supposed to be sending paperwork verifying genetics. I have Mitchel's phone # and I tried calling quite a few times but only get voice mail. I never rec'd. a return call from Mitchell and now Shane Congdon is telling me he has reason to believe something has happened to Mitchell and chances are I won't get any paperwork from him. Has anyone gotten Ball Python hets. from Mitchell or elsewhere and were told Mitchell was the breeder ? I want to sell this ball python but all of my inquiries are asking for paperwork that I can't provide. What should I do from here ? Any info. would be greatly appreciated.........Thanks, Joe

Joe,
Go to http://www.searchbug.com/peoplefinde...ebyphone1.aspx
& see who phone number belongs to. That would be a start. I would also try calling & blocking your phone number (*67) & see if somebody answers. Sounds like he's passing the buck or just used someone elses name in deal to get your money..I would go back to Shane & get your money back, you bought from him & if he can't get you paperwork he should return your money.

Thanks for the input
The area code is (806) I believe its a cell phone #. As far as Shane Congdon in Ct. He has said he feels bad and wants to do right by me. He has no other het. pieds and offered to take the snake and breed him to prove him out. ( That will take several years ) I asked for a refund but he said money is tight and can't do it right now.......Joe

IF he sold you the python and told you it would come with paperwork, he needs to refund your money. Wether times are tight or not, work out a payment program with him to get your money back, and let him prove it out on his own. You should not have to deal with the person he bought it from.

I've seen ads for 100% het pieds with no paperwork being offered at a discounted price. Did the ad state the python was sold with paperwork? If that was what was agreed upon then he has to send you the documentation.

I would assume he has straight pieds though because if not, how is he planning to prove him out if he has no heteros?
Good luck!

806 area code covers lubbock amarillo and pretty much the whole panhandle. I am pretty sure i know who you are talking about. Mitchell Perky right...
If this is the same guy, contact me thru Pm and i can give you more details, this is not the place to go into details about this situation.. at least on my end.
