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 agree with you Anthony. I think once Michelle called Ty dishonest and shady she should have known their "relationship" was over.

I think it's one thing to never deal with X person again, but to rip them off and not even send what is owed is entirely another thing and based on that shady is probably a fitting term.

So if I purchase something from you and before you ship it, I find out you are a POS, and make my feelings known, then you are entitled to back out of the deal. Sounds childish and pathetic to me..

I think both Anthony and Ty have underestimated how much this will affect his business, otherwise he wouldn't be making Facebook posts about the topic, or receiving messages from people on FB about it......this thread has more views than any other in BOI history that I can recall, and is the number 2 thing that comes up when you Google Ty Park's name.

It will be #1 soon enough especially as the court date approaches. Every time Ty Park is typed here, good old google adds Ty Park's names to their search engine and next thing you know Ty Park in the Fauna BOI thread tops the Ty Park search.

Considering that this thread has not been up for years like some of the others, it really has a huge number of views and I agree with Timothy the views will increase quite a bit. But Ty himself has garnered all this negative publicity in my opinion, it would have been easy enough for him to simply give Michelle her prize.

So, either he's an agent of a non-profit, or a business. Which is it?

This is puzzling to me. I have watched videos of Ty Park's farm, and I just don't see the breeding stock there that would put him in the category of "one of the largest supplies to the retail pet chain." So I looked into it.
The name "Lasco Inc" pops up when you search on the address of Ty Park's farm. 33900 Bermont Rd, Punta Gorda, FL
http://www.petsglobal.com/website/bu...asco_Inc..html
Note the "Business Type: Importer, Distributor/Wholesaler"
And there is this curious business description.
https://start.cortera.com/company/re...p9n/lasco-inc/
And then there is an online invoice showing 45 kgs of iguanas being shipped to Lasco Inc from Mexico.
https://panjiva.com/Lasco-Inc/31487853
Somehow that claims of Ty Park that he does all this only for his "love of the animals" doesn't ring true. Certainly a very odd perspective of a wholesaler of live reptiles to the pet trade. That love must be spread pretty thinly over the thousands of animals being imported through his hands and coldly sold to pet shop chain stores.
So why all the facebook love for just a flipper to the pet trade who has a sideline hobby of some other higher profile lizards? The hobby side obviously is being emphasized on his public pages and the wholesale side being downplayed to be hidden from view from his followers.
Obviously Ty Park is running a profit oriented business. How can there be any doubt?
And then we see Ty Park treating Michelle Cutler exactly as a cold blooded cut throat wholesaler of reptiles would, instead of someone who breeds and works with reptiles solely for the love of it.

but I agree, we should just leave the holes unspoken and let him hang himself in his lies. he's done good so far.
so I don't see how he can, in front of a judge, jump from one meaning to another
sorry the quote didn't add the pics of the transcript
|
Sorry if I missed something, but isn't the lawsuit being discussed FROM Ty Park AGAINST Michelle Cutler concerning defamation? Has a lawsuit actually been filed FROM Michelle Cutler AGAINST Ty Park concerning the breach of contract concerning the raffle?

It doesn't matter what sort of relationship that Ty Park and Michelle Cutler had and has now ended. That doesn't mean that Ty Park can just walk away from his legal obligations towards Michelle Cutler. He is legally bound by Florida law to provide the prizes to all winners of the raffle that he held. His personal opinions about anyone or anything won't amount to a hill of beans in the courtroom. I think that when discovery is done and the facts come out about Ty Park's financial situation compared to Michelle Cutler, the judge will throw the book at him with punitive damages. Maybe even start the ball rolling for criminal charges as well.
As for Ty Park being considered as dishonest and shady, I think everything that has taken place since that statement was made shows pretty starkly just how accurate that opinion has proven to be. This could just be the tip of a very big iceberg that has gone undetected before now.

But he does these things out of the "goodness of his heart" according to someone who recently joined this thread? lol.....
This dude has people in his back pocket BIG TIME and I don't understand it.
