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.

Chris,my experience was similar,but his check cleared so I wouldn't be able to call him a scammer,but he didn't give me a good feeling with all the delays and mishaps in paying.I stood close and in contact via the phone and email til I was paid,so I would advise you to follow that path.I hope it works out for you,Marcus Quesada.

i just want my money period... he owes, wont return phone calls or emails. there is no excuse for him or anyone else who feels they need to chime in with excuses for him. period end of discussion. pay your debts or get slammed in the forums very simple.

This has already been brought up in the other Reptile Kingdom thread and there is an ongoing discussion about it. Would it be appropriate in this case for a mod to lock this thread?

Seeing as it was a separate experience, a separate thread may be appropriate. I just threw that out there for some clarification.

I posted this in the other thread about Allen but thought I'd put it here as well since you have both of them going now.
"""Well since you want to get yourself all bent out of shape, it is customary to provide some proof that You had a transaction with the person you are accusing. Emails ETC will do but how are we to know that you ever had a deal with Allen without some proof. Also take a look at this
""Anonymous third party quotation - 1 point
Saying something like "my buddy says you are a thief" is a third party quotation. There is no ownership to the accusation being made. Not allowed here. Let you buddy come in here and say it, otherwise it needs to remain unsaid. "
That's one of the warnings for the BOI, so if your GF owns the animals in question and sent the animals to Allen then she is the one with the beef so needs to come here and speak for herself not you.
Hey Seeing Allen's recent record on deals posted here on the BOI you are likely being truthful but you still should have your girl friend post here and provide proof of this transaction..Randy """

i talked to him on the phone,, i set the price of the dragons, the only thing she did was mail them out when i wasnt home without payment first. all the discussions were with me before and after. so no0 rules have been broken. all this does is take the thread in a diffrent direction. quit the nit picking and focus on the topic. allen ripping people off period.

Are you saying you have no record of this dealing outside of a phone conversation? If so, it's unfortunate, and it will most likely be very difficult to recoup any losses. E-mail/paper trails have a way of keeping people at least somewhat honest. With none of this, he can just as easily say he's never heard of you.
