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 hope that doesn't consist of the animals that you still owe money on, I would hate to see you make D and D an accomplice by giving him stolen merchandise. Not to mention the people that buy the stolen reptiles would also be guilty of receiving stolen merchandise and be out the animals and the money they paid when the animals get confiscated. Don't be stupid and compound the problem; if you haven't finished paying off an animal don't include it in what you give to D and D...

Sam, I agree with you. RC Reptiles deserves the rest of his money on the Albino and hets deal. I do not know about other deals that they STILL owe money on but they should either be sent their animals back or paid prior to those being sold.

I donated 50 custom shirts to help out. I read thru most of this and it is horrible. We are still fulfilling our end of the auction. it would be a shame for there to be another loser in this mess as well. The person who paid for the shirts. I am also willing to donate another 50 shirts to anyone who wants to buy them and donate the money directly to the family. Just contact me
thanks

Thank you Alan. I never doubted that I would receive the shirts from you as I spoke in length with you on the phone some time ago.

Thanks Donna, that means a lot and I appreciate it. They are banned from trade section and they are on a global ignore so if they try to post anywhere it will not show up.
Talk to you soon.

It's HORRENDOUS what they've done to two mourning families.
Here's the thread-

Seeing that they're members here, I thought you'd want to know.

Sounds like a crappy excuse, there addicts but they have money and animals. I believe they like to get high. But addict, i dont think so. More like a professional thief / con-man.

Regardless of ANY excuses that the Wises have come up with thus far, NONE of them matter one bit. Drugs, bills, family emergency, IT DOES NOT MATTER!!! There is NO excuse for their actions.
I know everything that could possibly be said has already been said in this thread... but all the excuses are nothing more that a tactic used in order to "buy time" or to attempt to play on our natural human emotions. These tactics are WASTED on us, so stop wasting your time! We are NOT going to change our opinion... the money MUST be sent where it belongs.
Personally, I feel that there should be interest charged by Maggie on the money she is owed. I mean... If the Wises decided to make a "loan" out of it, loans aren't free...
When all this started, many of us felt that what the Wises were doing was very honorable. If they really had the problems they are claiming to have, upon seeing the generosity that our community has shown Maggie and her family, a LOGICAL, INTELLIGENT individual would realize that we were just as likely to help them out of a tough situation. But by doing what they decided to do, instead of a benevolent friend, they have earned an EPIC enemy... Unresting, Unforgiving, and DEMANDING JUSTICE.
What they have done is unforgivable. We all know that Hell is likely to rain down upon them for their actions from everyone here.
Maggie, you already know this, but we will all do everything we can to make this right... and it isn't about the money... (but I'm SURE you know that as well).

Ok. I have been trying to read through this since this morning on and off. I have been silent because I am new here and have never posted on the BOI... but the feeling of nausea and shock has been replaced by complete disgust at the comment below (and all the others made by the wises. )...

What do you mean you are "probably" going to give your whole collection to Dand? Are you kidding?! Dude, fork it all over!!!! If you've got anything you can sell that you don't need to take care of your kids, SELL IT! A second car, an old bike, plasma (not yours as you can't )... I am in disbelief that you would even consider keeping any of your collection when you owe a widow money so that she can care for her children! You are clearly still living on planet "Head Up Your..." I have met a number of people over the years who spend a lot of time on that planet, but you seem to have an actual residence there!
Oh my gosh!
