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.

This isn't a defense of Allen, or an attack on anybody else...just pointing out that if the broad stroke is being used, it covers a lot.

Very true and I agree.
And thank you.

My point with that statement was that he INTENTIONALLY sold animals that had IBD. I know that IBD happens, it's a horrible thing that happens. And even myself have delt with it in my own collection, and it killed all the other snakes because at that time i had no idea what it was. Not only that i had no clue about this site, a friend told me about it. That is my point, at some point everyone deals with some type of complications with their animals big or small. But when you intentionally pawn those animals off on other people, is wrong.

The reason why I took the chance is that he has had positive posts on him, and the negative posts seem to me to have been more aimed at defamation by a certain few individuals. Also, a good friend of mine has been buying from him for years with no problems at all.

To save a few bucks is the only answer I can and have seen. Gambling is what I would call it but for someone who wants to save a buck gambling doesn't sound like an intelligent thing to do. It may pay off once in a while but the law of averages is against you. Of course when it all goes wrong and it bites you in the ass you'll be back here whining that you got screwed. See you soon.....

Guess you'll think twice about those certain few individuals negative posts in the future.

I stand corrected, Both you Ed and Harold are correct in your replies. I admit to taking this thread a little to far and beyond my own personal concerns. I should have stopped after my first initial post which clearly stated the point i wanted to share. My appologies to both of you. Sometimes It takes a stronger man to admit when they were wrong. Your personal issues with Allen really do not and should not concern me.
However, Dand- I really think it is time to stop with your wise cracks and leave this one alone.

Just wanted to update this. The Champaign is healthy and growing like a weed. Again, I am very happy with my purchase.

From my point of view, anyone that buys from Allen is contributing to a guy who has a very shady past, and does not seem to care about the animals he sells. Whether or not he has/had a diseased collection, is anyones guess, but I like to play it safe. Which means, people that have purchased from Allen, will be on my do not buy list just the same as Allen himself. I just won't take a chance on infecting my collection to save a buck and keep someone like that is business.
