    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.

    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....

Beware of Jeremy Heikel

this guy ha!!!

wendy i have read everything on this thread, and personly i think his name should not be heikil it should be kikel as in kikel iche ickenstien becuase i think it was a very jewish thing he pulled money over reptiles wendy if i had the extra cash i would buy the berdie from you even tho i am not a lizard guy at all just to help make it right for you this guy should be publicly stoned in front of the intire herp community in fact i would love to do it my self but unfortunatly law prohibits that. and another thing if anybody was to sell me something that was not what i bought i would hunt them down and rip there throat out but hey thats just me. but i really do hope you get justice in this if not his day will come and soembody will get mighty upset with him and take there own actions. like the old saying every dog has his day and soon that mutt will get his.

sorry again for your misfortune
sincerly doc
 
I have seen posts from Wendy RECENTLY claiming that she is a new breeder...and is just learning.


Funny that she has all these years of breeding experience...with only the BEST stock available (a quote from Kakadu!!)...

...and has to ask how to breed a leo...and how to incubate the eggs.




Sounds kind of fishy to me...

Of course it wasn't on this forum...on this forum she is "SUPERBREEDER of ANYTHING REPTILE"...she goes to the other forums to ask her questions on what to feed a cornsnake...or something else that would be second hand to someone with the amazing herpetological skills that she possesses.

Ridiculous.

Are you saying she is the fraud, instead of the person that ripped her off? Maybe you should start a thread about a bad girl, but you might want to actually show some proof. I'm only going from this thread, where she actually states that she is new to breeding, and in another of her posts (on this thread) she states she has learned some things that she will utilize as she starts her new breeding efforts (or something to that effect). As far as a breeder just starting out, with nothing but the best breeder stock, what is so unusual about that?

something sounds fishy alright.
 
I absolutely and unreservedly apologize.
I hadn't gone back to the first page again to refresh.


This is NOT the thread I thought I was in and unintentionally remarked about the wrong person...although the name is VERY close to being the same.

My apologies to Wendy and Kakadu. I am sorry for the mistake.


And there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with using the ABSOLUTE best stock...if this was in the correct thread, it would have had the correct connotation.
 
I have a question for wendy. You said that your from Tarheel reptiles right? because there is either another tarheel or you are also with them and that would include you in the bad guy report on this forum. I am just curious because Tarheel is not a common name or anything, and the locations are diffrent. I don't know if someone is using your business name or what but I thought you would like to know about the bad guy report made on Tarheel.
 
Hi Everyone-

I am in the process of obtaining top quality bearded dragons to start a breeding program. I chose the name TarHeelDragons.com as my website that I am in the process of working on. I am not affiliated in any way with either of those 2 people. I am in North Carolina and that is why I chose that name.
I might have to come up with something more unique and less likely to be confused with the other breeder.

Thx- Wendy Thomas

Well done.
I do know which thread your previous comments concerning a Wendy were about though :rotflmao:
 
I didn't think it was the same place, the locations are diffrent. I just thought I would let you know that someone is using the same name of tarheel. this happend not to long ago that someone was using i think Jungle Jems and ripping people off, then the actual person who has the name Jungle Jems as a registered business had to come on and ask them to stop using the name. I have been folling this thread and when I coulden't find it I remembered from the Reptibid thread you said you were tarheel and when i typed that in the search, the other thread also came up. I don't know what would be easier, getting a new name or defending it everytime this joker rips someone off. Good luck with your dragons, I look foward to seeing the off spring!

I have a little bit of an update. I received a letter from visa today along with the copy of Jeremy's rebuttal letter. Visa took back the $535 and said I could send in a rebuttal to his rebuttal..........I did that this afternoon. He just told more lies and I got upset all over again. I did find out that the email he sent me with her picture was one the person who sold her sent to him. Now, how can her verify any authenticity of a photo that he did not take? He tried to tell them he requested an updated photo from me and I refused to give it to him. He had put a post on the repti-forum about a current photo and I had not seen it. I did post an updated picture when it was brought to my attention. He twisted the whole situation to look like I refused to send any photos of her. He of course did not mention the discrepency in her weight. He also said that he only knew the first name of the guy he bought her from and he has not ever called him back with bloodline info. He told me that he bought her from his buddy, so I was confident he would get me her bloodline info. He said it took 2 days to ship her when it was only about 15 hours. I could go on and on. He is just a liar and bends the truth to fit his needs. When this is all over I am going to take the good away and throw the bad out with the garbage. It has definitely been a learning experience. I will let you know if anything new comes up.

Thx-

Wendy Thomas
 
I was surprised to find an email from Jeremy on Christmas Eve telling me to ship Ruby back and he would refund my money. I was guardedly optimistic. But, I have emailed Jeremy 3 or 4 times to confirm that some one would be home to sign for Ruby and have not received a reply. He may just be busy and I am not a priority. There may be extenuating circumstances that I am unaware of. It appears that he changed his mind and is ignoring me altogether, but as I stated, I will reserve judgment until all is said and done.

Wendy Thomas
 
I spoke with Jeremy on the phone Wednesday and he agreed to take her back and refund my money. I shipped her yesterday and she was delivered this morning. So far so good. I will let you know how it all turns out.

Wendy Thomas
 
I should have known this would not end quietly. I was waiting to get my visa refunded before writing my final post. As of yet, I have not received a credit on my account. He has started a bad guy thread about me on another forum. That is o.k. The more he posts, the more lies come out and the more people will see what a dishonest person he is. He is now trying to sell her for $600 and says I do not know what I am talking about, she is neon orange. He is trying to make me out to be the bad guy and it is simply not the case. Unless, trying to start a reputable breeding program with strong unrelated lines makes me a bad guy. Which last time I checked, does not.

Thx- Wendy Thomas
 
o.k. folks, I do believe we have a happy ending. My card was never refunded as Jeremy stated when I shipped his lizard back, but the dispute was settled today and my card will be credited. It took my visa threatening arbitration to finally settle this. This has been a long drawn out process. Thanks for all of your comments and support. I especially want to thank Jennifer Graef for her time and unending support with this. She has been great. Thanks again.

Sincerely

Wendy Thomas
 
WOW, he ask for you to ship the lizard back in a failed effort to clear his name and STILL ripped you off again. JEREMY is SCUM! thankfully you came to a resolution and someone finally settled. TOO bad jeremy never could own up to any of his lies.

It still amazes me he would start a bad buy thread about you on reptiforum, when he had no intention on refunding the money.

im really curious here, i wonder if jeremy was using that old picture trying to find another buyer and once he found one he contacted you back. He did say on the other post on reptiforum he would be able to sell her for $600 now. He shure seemed confident on that too, when many better dragons sell for half that price.
 
I just hope she finds a good home. She really was a sweet girl and it was obvious that he was not taking proper care of her. I bet he will try to sell her again. I just hope that people check the obi before doing business with him. I did and nothing came up. That certainly won't be the case for the next person searching. That is the reason I did this thread to begin with.

He's on Repti-bid right now!!! BeardedDragon

Hey guys I just wanted to let everyone know that he is selling high quality reds, yellows, and oranges on repti-bid right now. He's selling them in 10 lots for 350 under the name BeardedDragon. I e-mailed him some specific questions and he beat around the book about the dragons lineage. Here is a couple pictures that he sent me of some of the dragons. Maybe he is using someone elses photos? Anyway, I don't have a repti-bid account but he is ripping folks off good right now if what you guys are saying about color is true! When will he stop this fraud?? Here is a copy of the e-mail that he sent me.

Move To:

Sure if you send me you telephone number I can have a few of my customers
call you. I inclosed a few pics of some reds oranges and yellows. The
parents pics are of my oranges. I don't have a reputation on reptibid yet
because I have been selling almost entirely through e-mails. The dragons I
am selling really should be sold seperatly they are great looking reptiles
but I do not have the time. And yes I can mix up the 10 lots. If you buy a
20 lot I will knock off 20$. I know you are thinking thats really not a
whole lotta money, but it really is when you consider that I usually sell
for 75-125 a piece.
