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.

Perhaps all the folks that are negative can purchase from others. It is an open market.
I purchased SEVERAL animals from him and Wes and believe me they beat other purchases I made with the "big" names in size and pricing.

Hey Bobby, I'm not looking for a partner or anything but if you make me a great deal on some of your baby tegus I'll sell them, buy more, sell them, buy more.....
We won't have any kind of business relationship though. You'll just be selling to me and I'll be buying them and then selling them to someone else.
But we won't be doing business together......Mkay????

Ok Wes, you twisted my arm, one thing though, you must be on a fixed income first. Now go to Fauna and sell some tegus, but don't tell them I sent you.

One more thing, Rick, this thread has 133 posts and 7,328 Views. Good luck with Joe's sales here. Can anyone say KS for the next stop?
Also, is it just me or have I heard this somewhere before?

Rick, you still have not answered the question about Reti-Bid/ Reptile Auctions.
Did you know about the Blackmail by Joe?
|
Bobby, you may want to be more careful in your choice of words. Unless you still feel the truth hasn't come out regarding the "blackmail". Blackmail gives the impression that Rep.Auctions did something that they didn't want the public to become aware of and Joe threatened to make it public if they didn't bend to his demands.
Now a more accurate description is that Joe tried to do was bribe them. This isn't actually accurate either since a bribe is paying someone to commit an illegal act. Basically it appears Joe tried to pay them to compromise their ethics. It's a toss up who is more despicable; the one that pays or the one that compromises their ethics. Personally I go with the latter.
Just curious as to how many people lost money in transactions involving Joe's partnerships. Lost in the form of not receiving animals paid for(and the money not being refunded) or receiving inferior, or sick, animals that weren't replaced.

That kind of leads me to another question, perhaps a bit on a tangent....but really, if the difference between buying a morph for $3000.00 as opposed to say, $4000.00 will mean the difference between feeding and not feeding your family.....I wouldn't think you should be dropping 3 grand on ANY ANIMAL in the first place.

This is an interesting question. Bobby since you seem to be the expert on Joe give us an answer? Now then Wes, as the master of the turned phrase you above anyone should be able to distinquish between the term partner and in business together.
If I buy some of Wes's FWC at wholesale and then resell them. Are we partners of just doing business together? I Wes sends me snakes to sell because he trusts me and I sell them are we partners or in business together? I know maybe we should have a POLL in honor of the the missing POLL queen. I see nothing here to make me believe Rick is denying he does business with Joe. I bought an animal from Upstate Exotic and from Neil Gubitz that doesnt make me their partners. It means I got an animal from a source, you guys dont like the source but it was my choice. Ok so here is the deal from my perspective.
1. Ball Boutique has animals for sale. The source of those animals is really what your complaining about. But if I pay x dollars to Rick and get my snake what do I care?
2. I dont see a single person saying the Rick is a bad guy in his own right. The complaint is who he associates with.
So Bobby is Rick a bad guy? Come on Wes is Rick a bad guy? Is Ball Boutique on the list of vendors that rip people off?
