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.

Ok then it should be tomorrow. Sorry I thought it went out Monday. For the snake, it definitely had a different pattern on it's head than the one in the photo. That's not a big issue though, I just wanted to make sure the addresses didn't get mixed up and the herpstat went somewhere else. No offense.

Hi Clint. Do you have tracking numbers for the herpstat? The mailman just left
and said it should have been by here if it went out Monday. I just want to make
sure it didn't go to the wrong person because I did end up getting the wrong
snake too.

Hard to tell from your pic. if it is the same snake. Can you take a pic. of the head neck?

Definitely not the same snake. Is it at least a female and large enough to lay a clutch like the one shown in the picture? Even if she is, I'd be disappointed because the pattern in the original female is really nice.
I wouldn't say for certain that the guy intentionally set out to scam you....but it's quite clear, at the very least, that he has absolutely no concerns about his customers and cares more about the money than making things right.

Yeah the neck pattern is different. Sorry I don't have another pic handy.

I wanted her because of the large egg output. I figured she was pretty healthy and huge but the one I got weighed in at a little over 1100 grams when she arrived. She is up to 1300 now I believe. She has since been sold to a friend.

These are the initail PM's. I haven't studied the pictures hard enough but the female I received doesn't appear to be any of these but I'll have to look harder to confirm that:

Clint has been around for maybe 6 years, and I have seen him buying stuff, then an "out of Business sale" at least 3 times. It would be a shame if he leaves with this hanging over his head. His reputation should be worth more than a couple hundred bucks. Hopefully he will explain what happened about the snake mixup, and refund your money.

After studying the pics, I agree. Definitely a disappointment after choosing the one that laid such a huge, beautiful clutch. You might have gotten a virgin, for all you know (and at 1100 grams, I'd hope she was a virgin!).
I have my doubts that you'll ever get any fair resolution out of this....but I do hope so!

Just from looking at the first 2 pics you can see a diff, the snake on the eggs doesn't have a spot on the back of her head in her pattern while the snake pictured as the one you recieved does. That snake is not any of the 3 other females shown.
They may be right about things working out for you.. Too much time has passed on all his other promises. Sorry man.

Yeah it definitely appears I have been screwed and not getting anything. After seeing those pictures and the snake I got not being one, I think I see through the smoke. This whole time I've been hoping for the best in him, but I don't even know why he even sent a snake if he conned me. None of this makes sense.
