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.

Do those of you who think that VPI was worth Manny's claims really know what to look for in boas?
I really am curious.
That VPI was low end. It was going to be a so-so adult. Anyone that knows anything about boas can see this.

Manny has always been, in my eyes, one of the nicest guys - but everyone has a breaking point and buttons that can be pushed. So even the nicest person can cuss and get fussy from time to time. We cant seriously sit here and consider him a bad guy cause he got pissed with the situation, hell I got pissed from just reading the conversation. I can only imagine what Manny must have been feeling. Jendee was a very confusing person to start with. Some times it took me 3 or 4 tries to understand what she was wanting out of Manny when the whole VPI payment took place. There's a huge possibility that Manny and her could of been confused with what each other was agreeing on. As far as what I think, that's the most plausible case and well things have already settled between them before I even got wind of this whole ordeal so I cant really say what I think should of happened cause its no longer of any consequence. I just hope this whole thing does not hurt Manny's reputation cause he honestly is someone I trust and have proudly recommended to others in the past - and will continue to recommend to others in the future.

I don't see anything wrong with people coming on here and saying "hey that guy was awesome to deal with. He was there for me and helped me a lot with my projects and sold me some great boas. I'm surprised a BOI was created about him and this misunderstanding took place. I’m sure he will work this out with Jendee." And leave it at that.
Anyone who reads this thread will see lies were told and proof of the lies was presented here. So coming in here and fighting for those who were proven to be guilty does them no credit or benefit. In fact it's making it appear like the defendant sent you in here to fight on their behalf. I just never quite understood why people don't get this and it happens in most BOI threads.
Perhaps people just don’t read the threads before they posted their comments? Perhaps Manny never lied in his life. Perhaps before this thread he was holier than thou, but in this thread, this thread, he lied and proof was shown. He screwed up, it happens. Perhaps this was the only time he has ever done so and if you are a friend of his you have to accept it. This thread is not about hearsay any more, read the thread, geez.

By flipping that snake and giving him a hard time - trying to run his name in the ground.

The agreement was 1.1 to the girl who did the loan. Manny admitted to taking her male to multiple females. I'm confident in saying if things had worked out the girl who did the loan would have been given 1.1 and I'm also confident in saying they probably wouldn't have been the best 1.1 from the litter.
So do we really need to discuss "kindness" here? But admittedly, the girl who did the loan asked from 1.1 so I'll give you that.
But the girl who did the loan didn't ask for a VPI T+. Manny wrote here that in her greed she did and wrote an entire story about it. However, proof that you can see with your eyes was posted here that he offered her the snake. I'm sure prior to that text it never dawned on her to ask for a VPI. Thanks.

I do have a question here, somebody mentioned that Jendee sold the VPI for $900? That seems like a fair chunk of change to me.

No, she had it advertised as that, that is not what it sold for.

In her first post, Jendee says she sold it for $900.

As a photographer I can say that lighting, cameras and temps have a lot to do with how a snake looks in a photo. You cant honestly say that just cause a snake's orange shows up more in one pic then the other means that its photoshopped.
