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.

Jeff Schofield
Just to let everyone know, I have been totally screwed in a trade with Mr Jeff Schofield of Duxbury, MA., A self described "consummate biologist". I think that "con man" is more like it. He had some great pics in his ad on ks.com. Too bad I didn't get any of those snakes. Just in case anyone is interested, I have a file containing all correspondence between Mr. Schofield and myself, including pics of all animals sent and received. I guess that you live and learn. I will get over it, but it will be a long time before I ever ship first again! In case anyone wants to reply or even stand-up for him, I am David Scarboro Jr. Dahlonega, Ga.

Jeff Schofield
Okay I am going to end this! Jeff did send me exactly the number of snakes that he said he was going to. I assumed something and we all know what happens when you do that. Also, everyones opinions and perceptions are different. Jeff has contacted me and offered to work this out. I shouldn't have made the "conman" statement and I apologize, and do hereby retract that statement. If you have never been angry then feel free to criticize me. I remain

The above statement should have read "if you've never been angry and said something you shouldn't have, then feel free to criticize me"

There is just no pleasing some people
Before any more trash can be talked I just wanted to post that I have sent David the snake in the pic he requested to try and alleviate the situation.Yesterday he informed me that the package didnt arrive because of the wrong zip code--but it was the EXACT SAME ONE as the previous package(I have the reciepts).Here was his ONLY response today in recieving the ADDTIONAL animal...
ok dicksucker, I will get even! I PROMISE
I tried to call him but the number he gave me was disconnected.So,for those who had thought this fellow due any compensation I suggest that got his due a while ago.Sorry there are people like this in the hobby,Jeff

THAT would have been a just reward,wish it were true,lol
David,I have done a hundred trades and hundreds of sales and have NEVER heard of such a tale.It is getting to the point of shear comedy as all that know me KNOW I have a rich sense of humor but not like that,lol. With all the obvious problems that you have had dont you think there would be ONE other person that had kind of a similar circumstance in dealing with me in the past 15 years??LOL.I put my name out there for a reason,I stand behind everything I do and everyone that has had a questionable deal with me knows this.I always go the extra mile to make a deal happen or keep someone happy......but I suggest there is no helping you.You got the extra snake you wanted and you said you would not slam me here again and look what you did.I have the number you gave me on 2 different shipping labels,zip code as well.My number is on there and you have my email but you chose to air dirty laundry here again instead.You sent me 3 emails cursing me before you even told me what the PROBLEM was.....so I suggest there wasnt one to begin with.You got one animal MORE than our original deal and I picked up the shipping for it as well.....Anyone that knows me knows I am not going to waste my time packing a holey or empty sock,lol.Jeff Schofield

There you go again Jeff. I sent you one e-mail cursing you. The next one I forwarded back to you. It was my original e-mail with my address and phone. You got them wrong. Then there is the one where you tell me your girlfriend "lost your digital camera". Then the one where you say "David, what happened? You had pics of all the animals" I suggest that you can't keep up with all your BS. It is also obvious that you are trying to get this thread moved to"Hell" but I will keep it clean.(thanks moderator!) Anyway, I can already post pics, I think that almost everyone had seen the picture of the Eastern Milk that you tried to pass off as a Red. As quickly as I can learn to post the e-mails you sent, I will let your own words hang you out to dry. I have purchased animals at least 50 times and have never had a problem. I did have a problem with a rack system once, but the gentleman made it right. There is also the FACT that the first two times you tried to send the snakes to me, they escaped from the pkg. The first pkg was returned to you by the shipper with an animal hanging out of it stuck to the tape. Wow, a self described "consummate biologist" (Ihave that e-mail too) who can't even pack a snake. More Later.
