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.

Might want to try to get that signature release removed from your file - risky.

No you did not do anything wrong, if you did not know you were supporting a know scammer. However, if you knew they were a scammer and then made a deal with them, that would be another story. It is not looked on as a good thing when people in the hobby deal with known scammers, they are looked at as bad for supporting them, if they know before they agree to deal with them.
As for you being a liar, it has nothing to do with the questions. The BOI is all about proof, so when asked to show proof of the transaction, it is best to supply it.
As I have stated before, she has a reason for changing her name, and it was not a good reason.

It is not your act in buying from them that is objectionable. It's your "I got mine so who gives a crap if they screwed everyone else" attitude that is netting you the flack. Why are you finding it so difficult to grasp that?

Yes, you ARE a liar, as far as I'm concerned.
First, you said you would not do business with someone who intentionally rips someone off. (A good thing.)
Then, you said you will be purchasing from them again. (A not so good thing, since you KNOW that they have ripped people off, killed aniamls with crappy shipping, and are simply bottom feeding scum in general.)
One of those statements is a LIE, because both simply cannot be true. Which one is it?

Click on any of the threads I already linked to.....I'm sure you'll find plenty of "proof". There's more threads I'm sure, but I figured those few would be enough for anyone with any common sense to steer clear of them.
And of course you don't have to explain yourself to anyone....what you've written here already clearly shows what kind of person you are....a liar who supports other liars and scumbags, and sees nothing wrong with people getting ripped off, as long as it's not you. What else is there to say?

MY thick head?
You are the one that can't understand why supporting criminals is BAD, and buying from honest people is good.
Scum=bad
Liars=bad
Criminals=bad
Killing animals because you're too lazy or cheap to pack them properly=bad
Giving money to people who are/do all of the above: bad
Does that help any, or do I need to ask Alicia to get out her crayons and draw you a flow chart?
I don't need to tell myself anything, because I'm one of the honest folk. I feel pretty darn good......except I could use another cup of coffee.

Hm....been online here for awhile, and I know they were reading this thread....I wonder why THEY don't come defend themselves? Perhaps because they know it's all true?

Okay, now I don't post here often and I don't personally have any experience with any of the parties involved here, but it seems as though this has gotten out of hand. Whether or not he has lied about willingness to do business with them he has a right to post his opinion. He did business, did not share the experience of other members, got exactly what he wanted and has no personal reason not to recommend them to others and he's sorta being attacked for that. If anyone wants to research this seller on the BOI they will certainly do so and they will find several negative threads and one positive one. They will weigh what they've seen and make a decision. I thought the BOI was to share information not to try and force people who post their experience with a seller into agreeing with your opinion with the seller. Maybe it was foolish to buy from these people. Maybe it would be foolish to buy from them again or recommend them to someone but if he had a positive experience with them and wishes to do business with them or share his experience that is his right. IMHO it is not appropriate to attack someone for expressing a different opinion based on personal experience. What should have happened is that he would post his experience. One or two of you would reply to it with something along the lines of "I'm glad it worked out but I still would warn anyone buying form this seller because of previous experiences A, B, and C" maybe someone would post a link to other BOI threads and it would be done. As it is this conversation has sorta deteriorated into name calling of a person who isn't actually the person accused of unethical business dealins.
