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.

The fact is that Aaron has lied on these forums, that being said he has no credibility what so ever, and the possibility of the superficial abrasion on the dragons toe could have very well happened at Aarons place under Aarons care.

No! Nicole made a big deal about it as her reason that the original image she offered Aaron may have looked like it had a toe nip. In the original image it seems plausible that she was stating the truth, however after seeing it along side the other image she provided, we can see that the knot is no where near the placement of the toe in question.
Now your trying to justify the omiting of the toe nip to Aaron as his fault because it was plainly seen in the image. The image was not clear enough and very well could have been a knot in the wood to the naked eye.
So what if he was laid off after he bought new animals? So what if he was filling in shifts where he could? He didn't lie! If you took a hit and could only make a portion of your current income is that not a form of hardship? Aaron didn't ask for a refund, but only for her to admit that there was something wrong with the toe. He is still not asking for a refund even though there are people saying he's due one.

Hi nicole,
I just wanted to let you know she has arrived and she appears well. She ate immediately.
She is adorable. Im sure she will be a great dragon. She obviously has no fear, she jumped right out of the container as soon as I opened it.
I will keep you updated on her growth...and Ill be sure to send some pictures as she colors in. She is going to make a great addition to my beardie family. I havnt picked a name yet, but I was thinking Juliette...I name all of mine ofter my favorite TV characters...that one is from Lost
Ill keep in touch
Thanks,
Aaron

I just had her out for a bath and I noticed that she has a deformed toe, and a toe nip. Aaron

Your 1st email doesn't seem to back the "immediately out of the box" story

yes, youre correct, I sent that as I had her in the bath, then took her out and inspected her, there was probably a 10 to 15 minute lag. Sorry for the error.

Is that so horrible to admit? I've done pretty much the same thing before. A gecko was missing a toe tip and I just flat did not notice the flaw when it was sold and then subsequently shipped. You could even see that the animal had a missing toe tip in the photo of it that was pictured on my website! Both myself and my customer did not notice the flaw in the photo, but he certainly did upon arrival of the geckos, and he then pointed it out to me and referred me to the photo fro my own website. I immediately acknowledged my mistake and apologized for not noticing. It happens to all of us at some point, not a big deal as long as you do the right thing to make up for your mistake. Offering a partial refund right away would have been the smart (not to mention professional!) thing to do in this situation. Your customer was NOT being a jerk or being rude to you at all, it was totally the other way around.
He was bringing the fact to this forum that this supposed professional dragon breeder was unwilling to rectify her mistake and was essentially blowing him off. Do you like being treated that way? Nope, none of us do.

Wow i agree with this 100%
That dragon may be 99% perfect, but it was supposed to be 100% perfect.
99 percent is NOT 100 percent. YOU are responsible for that Nicole.

Id like to see the original Size photos that Nicole took with her camera. Please post them so that she can prove there was nothing wrong with the dragon ( in her words)
Photos at their true size, when taken with a digital camera are easier to zoom in on and repair than a tiny image with lost pixels.

The nerve of Ed to refer to you in that way is rather surprising to me. I guess I always want to believe the best about people, and hope that they have changed for the better. Ed, you are a piece of work man. You owe that young man an apology.

Kelly all you seen was what this young mans post here which was a response to his 2 karma hits on me with a note.
He was the first to take a shot at me with this.

I can't belive anyone is taking issue with this.
HE pre orders the "pick of the clutch" a 100% perfect Beardy.
He didn't get that.
End of discussion to be honest, all this other crap is completely irrelevant to this issue.
