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.

Gary Walsch, you misunderstood my post. spam_What I said was that his name was being associated with Dan Bifield's, and if someone knew Griff and thought he was a good guy, they should let him know that so he could post to clarify about his relationship with Dan. spam_Further, for you to call me moronic for -not- jumping the gun and making a snap decision on Griff, but instead wanting more input, is presumptuous and out of line. spam_Next time you want to throw insults at someone, read what they said twice and give it a day to soak in so you don't make the same mistake again.
Ritchie Luna, you also seem to have misunderstood my post. spam_I read earlier in this thread that Dan was using Griff as a reference. spam_Perhaps I misunderstood what was meant by the word reference, expecting it to mean someone who will vouch for your work ethic or reputability. spam_With this in mind, I posted that Griff should be told about this in the interest of his reputation. spam_To someone who had never heard of Griff (such as myself), this seeming association with a rip off artist didn't exactly write his name in lights. spam_So you see, my intention was for Griff to clarify his relationship with Dan because sometimes "moronic" people like myself need to have itspam_spelled out for them.

Richard ... I did not call you moronic, I said for you to say that was moronic ... there is a difference. Also Ritchie .... I agree with you 100% because Mathew won't send the animals back first does not mean that Dan should do the refund first. That's why I suggested that they use a go between who would make sure it was done fairly. After what Mathew has been through I don't blame him for being nervous about sending them back, but just the same if he wants a refund the customary policy would be for him to ship back the animals first. You are right we can't have double standards on things, it will come back to bite us in the butt later if we do.

By the way ... I forgive you Neel, just don't let it happen again.

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">OK Dan,
Glad to see you finally responding civilly. spam_Now settle these few questions to start repairing your reputation.
1) Why $200 for shipping? spam_
2) Do you actually have his money in cash to refund should they return the snake? spam_And prove it since you stated, "If you are not happy send the snakes back for a full refund."
3) How did the URI get so far advanced if it was healthy when you shipped? spam_
EVERYONE is waiting on your answers in these matters. spam_No one really cares about your sex life, ex's, or all the other superfluous BS.
And just for you Dan since your so fond of checking us out my website is listed in my signature.

We are still waiting.

I posted this a few pages ago.
</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td> Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">But in all fairness, we all posted on a thread a few weeks ago about money back on a snake that the customer was dissastisfied with. spam_The customer who we can call NickI., wanted money first before shipping it back. spam_We all agreed that is NOT the way it is done. spam_So the same should apply here too. spam_However, trust is a major factor and this guy is not one to be trusted from the sounds of his emails and shipping costs and practices. spam_Perhaps you guys could agree to meet someplace mutual since neither side will trust the other.

I think Rob will know this story very well and the other half of it has changed his name when posting ads on other sites. He no longer goes Super Freak Basin Imporium. spam_ So always check out who you are dealing with first.

I do not think Jeremy has to post at all.
I think as long as the FULL details are posted by his friend it will be okay.
I have a friend who is the same way....I post for him and do research for him...and check out the people before he does business. Then when I am convinced everything is safe I tell him to go ahead with the purchase.

Well, it seems like alot has gone on since i last read, or posted on this matter. First thing id like to issue. I noticed alot of people making comments about us sending the snakes back first. Well, ya, i sure would if i thought i could trust this guy. Come on people, use some common sense. After ONE phone conversation Dan cursed at us, threatened us, and quit answering his phone, or e-mails! What kind of idiot would send any animal, product, or anything back for a refund to a guy like that without having him send the money first? IM NOT THAT STUPID! Second, a few people wanted to see the original e-mails regarding the deal. Jeremy doesnt have a computer. I do. How many times do you see an ad for a high end animal that says NO e-mails will be answered, MUST CALL FOR DETAILS! I've seen several, and most people i talk to want to talk to you in person. Lesson learned for me, i will from now on ALWAYS use e-mail. Both of the snakes will be looked at by a vet this coming week. The female albino still has audible breathing, gaping mouth, and fulid dripping from her mouth. The younger snake seems fine, but will be checked by my vet to make sure. Dan, you are a piece of work. Where are your friends from Kalamazoo? Didnt you say they were gonna visit us? Is it your policy to send friends to your customers house after a sale? Did you ever explain to the forum that you threatened us in such a manner??? Again, i hope i dont have to explain why these animals were not shipped back to him for a refund. Dan, enlighten us with some more of your poetic words of wisdom.
Thanks, Matt.

By the way! A few questions for Dan.
Dan, why did you ship airborne?
We didnt ask for that?
Do you always use cheap shipping methods when shipping 4000 dollars worth of snakes?
Why didnt you contact us when you shipped the snake? It would have been nice to KNOW when they were being shipped!
Why didnt you contact Jeremy to work out the details on shipping?
Do you ship your cats Airborne, or do they get the UPS treatment?
Matt.
