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.

Dand.-
Never heard or seen the animals in sub par conditions. I have a bunch of a retics including a male purple Tiger who is ready to breed thats is the only reason I was trading the super tiger. People buy and sell and trade all day long. I was just given a heads to that he ship first to me that way I knew I was getting screwed. I had nothing to lose at that point. I did browse the BOI. The guy who started a bad BOI thread about him has been banned and Pete has not. To me that stuck out. I learned from this experience.

The trade isnt the issue. You would clearly know this had you even bothered to read my thread. Lying to me. Making me miss work. Giving me the run around. Telling me he will ship and then not ship. Then pawning me off on somebody else. That is BS in my book. You dont do that to people.
No different than you calling up to get a deck built. Guy tells you yeah be there Wedensday. He never shows up. Then calls back says he had a family emergency which it what pete told me. Then boom fails to show up again. You now have taken off two days of work that are hard earned. Then never given a phone call to explain anything. Same exact situation here. Yeah it deserves one.

Paul,
While the person who started the thread was banned it certainly does not mean pete was not (if you read the thread you would have seen by his own admission that he was going to make things right on a number of instances but never followed through. also, if you had read the thread you would have seen the discussion about the pics posted [which unfortunately were removed when we had reached the limit of attachments a while back] of the conditions in which pete kept his animals.) in the wrong. Seems you didn't read the other thread too well.
Again, be glad, it sounds like you dodged a bullet. It sounds like a good lesson learned very cheaply.

Paul, my point is that this seems a little trivial.

Paul, I guess what I mean is that yes - this would make me extremely angry but does it rise to the level of posting a "bad guy" thread?
Maybe I should post a bad guy thread about the sidewalk because my feet hurt?

Not agreeing or disagreeing with anything in this thread but that made me laugh.

I would also think that this thread should be about jeff wilson as he is the one who blew you off, not pete. By your own admission pete agreed to ship out first but had a family emergancy that prevented him from doing so. He then gave you the number to jeff wilson who had the animals, and he was the one who didn't return your calls and blew you off. This thread should be about jeff wilson, not pete.

Why? Pete was the one advertising them.

Not sure how I managed to submit that....
We don't know that Jeff is even involved in this, other than Pete giving his number out. Given his history, I wouldn't be surprised if that was just a deflection because he didn't want to ship first.
