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.

Best wishes to everyone and thanks for the insight and the laughs.

Did you (or are you going to) inquire about whether you have any kind of case for attempted fraud?

I have already checked into the attempted fraud. Since I did not send anything out it does not apply. Also on a sad note I was told that for the feds to pursue a fraud case over the internet, a one time case has to be over 10k and/or the total amount in all cases has to be greater than 100k. That's crazy. With a law like this that seems to protect the guilty we are in for a long ride. This J D REPTILE story will be only one of many that we will have to deal with in this industry.

Allen,
Check the box again. It is possible that he is using the new "growth hormone steroids" (if you've seen my thread, you can appreciate the humor-rumor better) on the critters that he sent, and as we all know, the net result of such use is that balls actually shrink. Maybe they are there, and just very tiny at this point ?

Its true Allen. Small balls are better then having none at all. Nothing to be ashamed of. Handle your small balls with pride!

I always thought that was just due to being out is sub freezing weather. Hell, mine have been known to actually disappear completely in sub freezing weather.

Thats called Snow Balls. If you keep them out in the freezing weather too long you get Blue Balls.

Hey Alan, you may want to check that box for a tiny whole, that the tiny growth hormone induced shrinking balls could have escaped from.
It has been said on this forum before that snakes can get shipped and espcape through holes in the box

So true. And good advice, Chuck. Why, I heard of a guy once who shipped two good-sized balls. He used duct tape and somehow those balls got entangled in the tape. His balls were really in a wad!
