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.

Come on Carson, remember those 5 Emeralds I bought from you a few years back?? One was dead when I got them(crushed under the others in the box) all were dead within a week. Called you as soon as I unpacked them and was told you'd take care of it.. Tried contacting you after they all died and guess what you didn't take my calls and never returned my emails. Guess those photos of dead snakes I sent never got there ! yeah right...
So come on, you and everyone here knows that you don't deal with the problem deals you've made, you just try to blow them off and hope future customers don't find out about them.. Randy

Here's one of my personal favortie Carson stories.....
Quote:

The ad was for a "low white pied" which he had priced at only $2000! I was very excited and decided to change my original plan because this deal was too good to be true. Of course, it turns out that this deal was in fact too good to be true...
I sent carson the money and he sent me the snake via DHL. When I got the snake I decided to take some pictures and send it to some other breeders and sure enough they told me that I had been scammed! I did not have a pied in my possession but rather a spectacular ringer. I'd post a picture but I don't know how. Basically he has a solid white ring that's about 1 inch by 1 inch that circumvents his body. He looks very similar to the ringer in NERDs book.
So, I had just spent $2000 on a snake that is not worth more than a few hundred dollars, if that. Needless to say I was very upset! I tried calling Carson, emailing Carson, responding to his other ads and I did not hear anything from him. I contacted my local police station but because I had very little information on Mr. Phelps there was little I could do. $2000 is a lot of money in my mind but apparently it would have cost me several times that in order to hire a private investigator and to pay my legal fees if I ended up tracking Carson down and bringing him to court. Since I cannot really afford to pay these costs, I decided to chalk this experience up to a very expensive "lesson learned."
Then about a month ago I get a call during dinner from a collection agency. Apparently Carson sent the snake to me COD even though we agreed that the $2000 included shipping costs. As it turns out DHL screwed up and never contacted me about this outstanding debt and as a result they turned over the debt to a collection agency. DHL and the collection agency advised me to pay the debt because these types of "scammers" were impossible to track down and that my credit score would be hurt even more if I didn't pay it immediately. So, I decided to pay the bill.
To summarize, I am out several hundred dollars on a misrepresented snake, I had to pay shipping costs even though he was supposed to, my credit score was damaged as a result, and I still have not heard from Carson in over 7 months. In retrospect I should have been more knowledgeable about ringers but to be perfectly honest I did not know that ringers could look so much like low-white pieds to the untrained eye. Additionally, I should have been more suspicious of a $2000 pied for sale when every other male pied was at least $4000. Now I know better and never again will I be scammed by someone in this industry!

He DID eventually repay her $2000.00, but only with a little helpful "urging" from Paul Wyble. But yet another case of a SERIOUSLY misrepresented animal, also shipped COD without the buyer's knowledge, when shipping was supposedly included in the price of the animal.
Nah, ne never does anything wrong though.

Randy says you are counting his cash from 5 dead emeralds. That's a lot of cash. He notified you, he sent pix.
Carson, you need to make things right with the people who haven't received value from you. You need to send Randy 5 more emeralds.

as far as the emerald tree boas go,that was many many years ago.
i remenber one being crushed in the box do to shipping but the other 4 died i don't think so.
these were fresh wc snakes if they don't make it thats nature there wc.
i never received pictures of dead etb's.
when i imported etb i didn't give a guarentee.i only recently started giving guarentee because i deal with cb snakes only.
i'll do something for randy as far as 1 of the ebt because i do remenber that but 1 week later all 4 died .thats a tough one calling wont cut it pix etc etc would have been alot better
i'll take care of the 1 etb
i'm not into ebt's but i'm sure i can contact someone that does and i can have it drop shipped to.
email me and lmk what you want to do
herpsetc@yahoo.com
i never said i was an angel!!!!!!!!!!!! Cathy Peterson
if i'm wrong i'll take care of it. do i have to say this 50 times
if i'm not,don't count on it.
