    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I had a bearded dragon previously listed and payment was sent via paypal.
I sent the Dragon via Fedex. Opatty rebholz PP-001-654-913-123 Inquiry by PayPalnly to later have the payments held for review.

above cut and pasted from my PP.
Have many people had trouble with him. Him being the person I talked and did this transaction with was Steven Miller
 
I Contacted Steven Miller over the phone, he say's he"ll send a money order overnight to me for the payment.
(Hope it works out),
 
Scammers are always gonna be out there, And you never know who to trust.
May I ask which forms of payment you ask for Rich?
 
Yes your like to the post is the same one. Also claimes he still has the snake w/ gold coin and smily face markings
 
I only accept Cash in person, USPS Money Order and on expensive sales Wire Transfer into Bank.

I stopped using Paypal On anything over $50
 
Thanks for the tip. And it is great way to avoid scammers. Really hope it works out, and he sends the money order
 
I agree with Rich, PayPal really isnt the way to go. I accept the same forms of payment he does and there are also smartphone apps that will allow you to process credit cards. Hope everything works out for you...
 
Sonia, if this is just a temporary hold while PP investigates, you should be able to show evidence of shipping with a tracking number. I would think that sending PP the e-mails between you and your buyer would help your case, too.

Hope this turns out in your favor, but I wouldn't allow it to go through with the hopes of receiving that money order. I'd certainly put up a good fight! Good luck!
 
See other thread on Steven Miller........

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the very lengthy thread on BPman850 titled "STEVEN MILLER? JAMES COZZA? ( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... Last Page)"
dated 1/31/12. It's in the BOI at about page 4-5 or so.

Patty Rebholtz is Steven's mother. I wonder if she knows about this??

If I was you, I would hold NO HOPE of receiving a money order, especially one mailed on overnight service!

Tracking # and info that shows the Dragon has been Delivered, I told him to call me once He got the dragon! Also, Yes I gave the fedex tracking # to paypal for them to review the investigation. But that's it for collecting any mony over PP. Only moneyorders from now on
 
Unfortunately I don't have E-mails to show proof. As he wanted to deal with it over the phone, (now known why):shootfoot. I just am repulsed by people like that and hope paypal works for my side since a tracking number was provided to them by me. But I might end up loosing the cash and dragon.
Which like it seems he has scammed a number of people.
 
I almost talked to his mother Patti who Steven was claming they had their PP pasword stolen and someone has been makeing charges, the mother in the backround was arguing with Steven saying she couldn"t cancel it. I don't know if their in this together. But I wouldn"t trust them. And the package was signed for using different name
 
Nope, I'm really not surprised now to hear no answer that he got he dragon. I should have never sold the dragon to him cause he was asking basic bearded dragon care and shows he dosn't know much about them.
I'm mostly sad for the dragon and hope he lives

No. Even someone who is banned can still scam innocent people, even on here.

My advice, research a seller (even buyer) before you go into a transaction. Read the BOI and learn the tricks, what to do, and not to do.

No. Not for his business behavior. People can check the BOI and see and make a choice for themselves on whether they want to deal with him.
