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.

There is no way his garter snake business is failing. He has golden easterns and to my knowledge is the only one breeding them. A single gene golden goes for $500+ and he has already bred a couple other genes into them. The average garter morph sells for $75-$200.
Last season I sold off 80% of my collection and only have about 12 breeders. The garter market is booming because of the recent radix morphs to enter the hobby. There's white sided, Scaleless and b&w axanthic.plus the leucistic parietalis. If your an established garter breeder business is good. Demand and prices are high

Wow, this is really sad to see that the merits of this original transaction couldn't be handled on a more personal level. Two guys ( Jeff and Tommy) who are both very accomplished in their own rights in the garter snake industry/ hobby. Jeff especially, a garter snake morph pioneer who is and should always be very well respected. Tommy, a up and coming well respected breeder who has had countless forum conversations and interaction with Jeff. Both of whom are educators as well, I would hope that this is just a unfortunate handling of a transaction that went in the wrong direction from the outset. One that got sensationalized and overblown.

I think the thread has value. Whether Jeff is to be accorded respect for this transaction is up to each individual to decide after he/she reads this thread. I myself don't think Tom was treated appropriately here.

Well, I feel that this particular transaction is abberation and doesn't portray the true convictions and representations of Jeff. Tommy and Jeff camaraderie runs deep and I just feel bad that it had to come to the BOI..

Tom received the $50.00 payment to cover a long overdue shipping cost that was owed.(thats my take on it anyway.) it was pressure from the BOI thread that made it happen.Jeff tried to save face. good to see the payment sent to Tom and hope that is the end of this story.

Aberration or not, it's still a bad way to treat a customer.

You can feel that way, but it usually results in a favorable resolution.
