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.

I have a few pictures of my daughter a few years ago at the shop while it was still in the Swap meet.... It is now in its own retail location OUT of the swap meet.. I have lots of photos of the shop but most of them have people in them and I do not want to post their pics without permission... I also have lots of pics of reptiles that were there for sale if anyone wants to see what the condition of the snakes usually is... I agree though, a snake that is not in the best condition should not be sold until it is healthy. That is why I always ask for pictures if I am ordering a snake online to see its condition with my own eyes... I have seen a few snakes for sale online and though wow that snake is skinny etc.. But I guess for the avg person who know little about snakes, they would not know what to look for.. But once again, I am not here defending them in this case with these snakes in this thread, but more here to say that this is not typical of what they usually have....

Apparently you don't understand what you are saying either.
As for the aru, go for a refund as that as they claim to guarantee their snakes for a year.

I only read through the posts to page nine, but the pictures of the snakes, the gtp especially, speaks for themselves. Even if you can't get your money back, I'd be all over taking them to court for animal cruelty and getting them shut down. If someone called animal control and had their animals examined, I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard. This sickens me. Anyone who could keep and animal in those conditions and try to pass them off as healthy deserves punishment. You deserve every cent of your money back and all animals under his care deserve so much better. Had to throw it out there.

The condition they were in is absolutely appalling!
So, money was refunded and all is well.
I think not!
They are not "products". They should most definitely have charges pressed, and not just fines.. If there were much, MUCH harder consequences for allowing an animal to get like that, it wouldn't happen as often, and maybe people would realize they are every bit as valuable as a human.. Breaks my heart, it really does.. /endrant
