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.

KNOBTAIL, you make some very good points! I did not think about the consequences of using Friends and Family for deposits but PayPal might interpret that as avoiding the 3% fees like you stated. Someting to really think about. After the holidays I am doing research on some of the other services like Square and Google Pay. Thanks again for the help and advice !

He also messaged me and stated he dropped the PayPal case and he wanted his refund immediately. I checked and indeed he dropped the case. Unlike, Michael Lawton, I do what I am going to say and I will refund his $70 as I said on the 2nd of January (as long as the bank is open, might be a holday).

Think taking the high road, refunding, and wiping your hands of this entire situation is your best bet.

Just saw this and had to Chime in. He has put money down on a pair of Savannah over a month ago and has done the same thing to me. I don't understand putting money down to buy something if you can't afford to pay for them. I've got excuses from him also. It's just strange he's putting deposits down on animals all over the place. If he can't afford to pay for them then I bet he won't be able to care for them. I'm gonna just refund him back his money. It's not worth the aggravation. You know you try to help someone out and it comes back to bite you in the butt.

Keven2, thanks for you comment; sharing your experience should help poeple in the decision to deal with him. I am sorry you missed out on potentially selling your pair of Savannahs to a good customer instead of a flipper.

The funny thing is that I refunded him his money and he called me a prick lol. Most people wouldn't have gave him back his money and sold the animals to someone else. I really don't understand this guy at all! Trust me when I say THIS GUY IS A HEADACHE DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS GUY!
