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.

Ron Sibley/Sibley Reptiles- Indiana/Chicago
I am just wondering if anyone has current dealings with this guy. I met him about couple years ago at the Taylor, MI reptile show. I saw him and talked to him extensively EVERY month for over a year... so I thought I could trust him to help me sell some baby Peach Throat Monitors. The agreement was that he would get to keep anything over the amount I was asking, in turn for taking them around to all the shows he'd be attending that next month.
Needless to say... he never came back to Taylor, MI.
We would talk on the phone numerous times over the next several months, and he always had stories about the babies (eating, etc), people interested, and excuses for not being at the show.
Eventually I had the director of the Taylor show contacting him, and some people checking into him around Chicago shows... and he disconnected that number. I had even been accepted on Judge Judy until the number was disconnected!
I was a young, inexperienced GIRL... so he took advantage of that. It's been like 2 years... but I'm still pissed, still bitter... and especially STILL WANT WHAT'S OWED TO ME!!!
If anyone can give me advice, help me in ANY way... please let me know!

You poor thing...
The only advice I can give you is don't ever trust Ron Sibley. He is a snake oil salesman, a used car dealer and a skinflint at heart. If he percieves a weakness he will exploit it.
I do not know where he is right now as I haven't dealt with him in years. His business was Sibley's Creepy Crawlers, I believe. I think he lived in either Westville or Michigan City. (They are quite close to each other)
Since it's been two years you most likely have no recourse legally and you'll only give yourself ulcers if you let that slimey leftover from the primordial ooze get you in a tizzy.
If you can post the number that you had I could let you know what city it was issued from.

Sorry he did that to you.
Try contacting Nancy who promotes the Valaparaiso, In. show, she should have contact info. as he used to do that show every month (he may still do the show, but I have not been there in a while).
Nancy lizardlady@prodigy.net
Good luck.

I think...
I might have located him for you:
<H3 class="fn n">Ronald Sibley
11199 W State Rd 421
Westville, IN 46391
(219) 785-8155
</H3>
This is the current information for WhitePages.com. They are usually fairly accurate.
Hope this helps you.

Sibley is a guy you can trust just about as far as you can throw him. He did work the Valpo show in October but there are no shows scheduled until January.

I agree that Ron Sibley is not a person to be trusted. He does the Valpo show almost every month. The show is the last Saturday of the month, and the next one is in January. If you want to find him, the best bet would be to show in Valpo and confront him in person. I doubt he would answer any phone calls or letters. I'm pretty sure that he doesn't do any other shows anymore.

If he is avoiding you then you are going to have to hunt him down and corner him in person...
He lives/lived in westville so the addy is probably right but I doubt the phone is....
Good Luck!!!

I wish I would have known about this earlier. Send me a message @ valpoexotics@comcast.net. I live less than a mile from the Valpo Show, and can drive you to his house.
