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.

Given that Ravenna and Newton are about 16 miles apart I would guess that the chances are pretty slim.

Hey i live in Kent Ohio (city next to Ravenna) and have friends who live in Ravenna and have never heard of Shaeffer Exotics. I thought i knew every reptile guy around. If you send me an address on James, I can go find out whats up. I also work with a guy who is a vol. firefighter for Newton falls. I'm sure he has some officer friends that will help out. I just got taken on a deal so i know how it feels. Let me know if i can help in any way since I'm 5 mins away.

Are you sure going round there is a good idea? He might contact the authorities and try to make look bad or something. Especially if he's a kid.

I wouldn't go in an aggressive manner. People seem to try to resolve thing better when face to face. I talked to my friend and one of his friends( Newton Falls officer) is willing to be there also. If he still lives at home, it may be better because a parent could help Richard get his snake or the money. Would I be in the wrong for going? I'm just trying to help and the fact that I'm 15mins. from the address given.
