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.

Did I say that? I don't remember doing so. There is a filter on registration to keep anyone under the age of 13 from registering here, but I don't remember making any stipulations about 18 being the minimum limit for posting here. If so, please let me know.....
However, that being said, THIS is definitely against the rules:

Unless BOTH the father and the son are named "Lucius Cauthorn", then this thread was started by someone using a false identification. As such it will now be LOCKED and possibly removed unless the two persons using the account "Mckenzie_river_reptiles" can come up with some solution to this shared identity problem.
Registration on this site is for FREE. Both of you could have created your own registration and posted using your real name for each post that YOU were actually making. Now you've likely gone and wasted EVERYONE's time and efforts in this thread just to have it shut down because of your ill conceived stunt.

The person who started this thread has given me the solution to the multiple identity posting under his account problem that caused this thread to be locked.

If there is anything I can do to keep this thread then tell me, I can send money or whatever...I really appritiate it.
P.S. My Dad can't even hardly work the internet. LOL

This is another good guy report of the extension of a live arrival guarantee that was rescinded when the buyers were caught in many lies and made several threats to take advantage of an extended guarantee offer of a free skink.
It's quite clear the buyers Luc and Matt Cauthorn of Leaburg, Oregon, aka Mckenzie_river_reptiles, blew any opportunity for any consideration from their numerous threats and failed intimidation tactics to extort monies. Seller's should not be fall for such intimidation tactics.
All buyers/sellers should heed caution to proceed with any sale/trade/bargain with this father/son intimidation team as they will surely wait in the shadows to take advantage of another company. Hopefully they learned they cannot threaten and win points for any consideration of the terms.

Dan,
Your lying again! How about I help you brake this habbit....Anyone that reads this thread for it's entirty will realize that you are a liar...OK I admit I lied about my Dad posting the thread, but you lied first about having to be 18!
Don't accept Dan's lies, to prove that I will back my animals up more than Dan will his I show you my gauruntee.
Gaurantee:I will offer an unconditional feeding, live arrival, and that your animal will thrive guarantee. You must report a problem with the animal within 1 month, after that I will help you with questions etc... If you find out after that month that something is wrong(a defect that was from birth) with the snake(s) then I will either replace it or refund your money. Please try to keep this an honest business/hobby!

Luc, your guarantee is great in theory......but say someone buys an animal from you. Fedex delivers it, and it sits on their front porch, in mid-summer, in full sun, for 8 hours until they get home from work. Then they call you and say, "My gecko is dead, it got baked in the sun. When are you sending out my new one??"
You have to have limitations on your guarantee, for the good of the buyer, seller, AND the animals.

Gaurantee
Yeah, I agree with you there. The buyer must sign the shipment when he recieves it or have someone else sign for him. There are a few bugs...Thanks for your help.
Randy, why would you not buy from me?

Also this gaurantee is only for snakes...
Also Randy, What do you mean by "Cat, if they are smart they wont buy from him and thus he will save money on that guarantee.. Randy"
I am from now on going to fax back and forth my gaurantee, in which the seller and the buyer signs his name.

It's time for Luc and Matt to apologize for this bogus thread.
It's quite clear that the terms of purchase were met and were extended to offer an additional skink, and their threats backfired to void any extension.
No seller/buyer should be intimidated to succumb to such threats and an apology is in order.
