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.

Just my 2 cents on this subject.
How do you know that the guy advertising on KS didnt steal the pic from ReptileCity?
Here is the poster from kingsnakes homepage tspuckler
now look at all his pics for his snakes they are ALL taken on a wooden background whether they are in boxes or not they have the same background ....... that pic of the brazilian rainbow isnt. Leads me to believe he stole the pic. just my 2 cents.

Hey there everyone. So everyone want's to know the scoop of reptilecity.com.
Well here it is. I signed up to be an affiliate of reptilecity about 5 month's ago.
In this time I was suppose to be paid on the 1st and the 15th of each month. There has always been trouble being paid. The main reason I have gotten for this is because Felton Willis cannot supply half the stuff he takes money for and then has to do big chargeback's to all these people.
Now the first time I was to be paid I ended up waiting about 1 month.
The second time it turned into being about the same.
And now I am suppose to be paid again but guess how long it has been since I asked for this man Felton Willis to pay me. Almost 3 month's now. He owe's me about $400 dollar's at this time. And will probably take my site after he read's this post. Because he cannot handle people speaking the truth about his company. Which I really do not care any longer because I do not work for someone that lies day after day. He has said numerous time's he would be sending cash but still has not done so. He even had me making long distance phone call's for him because he did not have the long distance on his phone. The agreement there was he was going to help pay the big phone bill but only sent me $20 for over $300 worth of call's I made over a 2 month period of time.
I have done everything from threaten to sue for the cash to just plain beg. I was doing so much work for this company that there would not have been any time for me to get a regular job. Helping other rep's, working on the website for him, etc etc. So my word's to other's is please do not make the same mistake's as I have. My bill's have stacked up so much that I am working non stop day after day to try to get them paid. Most of my utilities have been shut off already. So Now I owe more cash then ever before. But yet he alway's blame's it on this other company that handle's his money. But I have talked to this person and he swore to me that he sent Felton every bit of the cash.
There are also other rep's that went through this same thing. One person that was there before me even quit and had them delete his site because of this nonsense.
I have tryed to call Felton for the past 2 week's on the phone because my internet got shut off. I have also emailed him from my friends pc numerous time's but for some reason he can never answer my email's, or phone call's.
Now I will just shed some light to all those that want to know the true story. I cannot take this anymore. There is no reason for any of this to happen.
Now as far as the pictures on the website. Yes most of these pictures have came from other site's. This is in response to the ad's I saw before I posted this.
As far as unsatisfied customers. I have had a good deal of satisfied customers. But at the same time I have also had alot that were not satisfied. I would say at least more then half that were unsatisfied.
Actually just helped one of my customer's get his chargeback after one month of waiting for a snake he ordered over a month ago.
If anyone has any questions they can feel free to email me at snakewrapped@yahoo.com.
Have a good day everyone got to let my friend have his pc back. Just thought everyone should know the whole truth about reptilecity. O and by the way did I mention I was suppose to be a "partner" instead of an affiliate. Words from Felton's mouth himself.
See everyone. Will check this board in a few day's.

Jeremy,
After reading what you have posted it does let people know that we owe you money but it also makes them aware of how immature you really are. For posting for the whole world to see that you have household bills to pay and can not pay them blows us away, everyone has them too. So for you to point the finger at us, for being the reason for you not being able to make your bills is unreal.
There are two sides to every story, I will say that corporate and I expected you to do something like this and we have made other arrangements. People will judge us by what you have written which we can not change. The Internet is filled with one-sided stories, which is the cost of doing business via the web.

To rip people off for you to pay your bills? Let me see how far did that 35$ go to pay your bills? People like you make the rest of us look bad!!! Whne none of us are. To expect others to buy your snake at 50$ when they can get it for 25? All because you can't live. Tell you want go back to your mommy and tell her, "Mommy the worlds mean to me" and see how much she laughs at you!!!

Ok as far as me posting about my personal bill's yes i do admit t is was wrong on my part.
Neil yes some of the stuff i typed was a waste of time. But some was not. Felton lets stuff get so far and ignore's his problem's in his company so long that people get upset/mad. I am sorry that people like you had to see this. This whole board goes to show this point.
Felton you did exactly what i expected. You ignore my phone call's and email's. But when everything goes a step further you finally have something to say. This is very nice to see now. You call me immature but it seem's over 3 month's i have given you 1000 chances to be a man, talk this all over and you to just send the money that is owed. So please tell me who is the one that is immature?
Now i wonder what you mean about corporate and a new plan on this whole deal. Me and you both know there is no corporate. Only you and your dream of a bigger company. Am i being threatened or what? There is nobody else to blame now felton not supplier's, other companies, or other people.
My only and last question to you is where is the cash i am owed?
When people have people working for them no matter if in sales or the crap house they usually pay there people for there work. i earned the cash and expect to be paid also. Just like the customers pay for your undivided time and product for each order. It seem's you cant give either.

Reptile City has taken an interesting approach to Online Herp Stores. I ran a store in Columbus, Ohio called Reptile City .. which was unrelated to the one in question) When considering running an ad in Reptiles Mag.. I decided to call the owner of Reptile City that is in question in Texas. We talked about his business plans for R.C. He basically is using a mass-marketing approach. Letting others create websites and markets in their respective areas selling his herps. There are alot of Reptile City websites but only one actual store. They are all shipped from the main facility. This sounds like a neat plan (a percentage of the sale goes to the person running that website.. he gets the rest.. ). But..logistically.. I saw a problem of what would happen if JoeSchmo running a website sold something that wasn't there.. who is liable?
If anyone else has ever run a herp store with a few employees.. I am sure they know what happens when a salesman sells something that is not there. I think the added "Sales Representitves" as they call it.. create a large problem.
They are a pyramid scheme het for a reptile store IMHO
