No Problem With Twinstate

Jesse,

I've known Brandon for some time and just met his partner recently. In fact both just paid me a visit this past weekend. I know them to be honest people to work with so I would not be worried or anticipate a problem dealing with them. They'll be doing a show coming up on April 19th in Manchester, NH for anyone local who'd like to meet them in person. They should have a wide variety of animals to choose from.

LMFAO

In my own opinion the Twinstate boys are not very trustworthy.

A couple of months ago I sent them an email about a VERY overpriced normal ball. They replied in a rude manner, and then went as far as acting like children and harrassing me in the chat room.

I would never give them a penny.

Any chance you could explain the above quote?

I am also weary of Greg as well. I will post on both of these characters when I find more info. ( Brandon, Greg, or Jesse or whoever else it may be)

I was going to wait, BUT

I am going to go as far as calling Twinstate VERY shady and even dishonest.

I will post link and proof soon for those who cant figure it out.

NICE TRY BRANDON, I TOLD YOU YOUR CAPS TYPING STICKS OUT LIKE A TURD IN A PUNCHBOWL.

I am also weary of Greg as well.

After looking, it appears that Greg may not have too much to do with Twinstates poor business ethics.

I am sorry for my above remark about you Greg, I just found it odd that you threw a plug in for their apr 19th NH show and you replied to both the B & K inquiry as well as this one.

Real venom

how can you call us shady ?? you have never done business with us?? you inquired about one male tiger ball and you said the price was to hihg it was just a nirmal bal and so on! well that where you started acting childish. i showed you many links to websites that have the same kind of tiger balls andshowed you there prices! but you wouldnt look at them. then with out knowing anything about us went and posted a thread on us in the boi stating we sold normal balls as tiger balls and there were no such thing as a tiger ball, etc. this was with out even talking to us once and not knowing anything about us and thinking you knew everything!!! well i responded that day in the fauna chatroom that everyone has there own opinion on prices and snakes, and tried to prove to you that someone can put what they think the snake is worth for a price. well once again you got all immature and started running your mouth to your little buddys in the chat room saying stuff about us when still you have no clue about anything to do with us. so as for you saying were are shday and childish. i think you need to gt your facts straight!! then giving us a bad guy report with out even dealing with us?? thats rude ! that would be like me giving a bad guy report on you just because i think one thing and you think another. well just wanted to inform everyone the truth about al. as for business i cant give him a good or bad report since i have never done business with him, and im not about to be like him and go bashing someone because of different opinions.
well i have a lot of references jesse this is my first so called bad guy reference if thats what you wanna call it. my business used to be b and k reptiles check out our refrences and hope to do business with you in the futer
thanks

Never Aware of Problems

Al,

I'm glad you didn't have anything negative to say about me. I was a little shocked to say the least because I wasn't aware I had any issues with anyone. I appreciate your retracting your concern about me in the next post. I'm sorry if there was some type of dispute between you and Twinstate regarding pricing and other discussion about tiger balls. Of course I would have no way of knowing this. I made mention of the show simply as a gesture to help people in the New England area become familiar with Twinstate Reptiles in person, not because I had some direct interest in their business. Brandon has helped me out by loaning me an extra incubator and I've given him animals and reptile supplies up front with no money down and he's always come through as promised. I only do this with people I trust so obviously I do feel Twinstate to be honest. If anyone ever has an unresolved issue with them I'd be willing to help mediate and resolve the situation but I don't feel it would ever come to that. Thank you for your feedback Al. That's what makes this board such a valuable tool.

Well, I just wanted to add that we just recieved our female chameleon in a trade that we did with Brandon. She is beautiful!
We are more than pleased with her. Brandon was never rude to us in any of his e-mails. We would gladly do business with him again.

Thanks Brandon!

Well in my eyes, using 2 usernames, with two names attatched is shady. http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1031

WOW, I dont believe that your admitting it was you, I only wish I had saved that chat session so I could post your VERY rude, even vulgar remarks to me and everybody else that was in chat that day.

So anyway, who is hisser?

Hey hisser, how did you delete one of your posts?

Last night when I posted this you had 4 posts made, and the other one thats missing was also signed Brandon.

Al,

Here is a link to a thread in which "hisser" signs his name as BRANDON (lol)! You just have to love people too slow to cheat, don't you?

link

Thanks Darin

I still cant find one other.

The posts number by everyones name said 4 for hisser last night, but I cant find the foruth.

It doesnt really matter now, as you can see in the link you put up, he signed it Brandon.

You just have to love people too slow to cheat, don't you?

It really is kinda funny.
And if he wouldnt have gone off on me and other chatters by name calling and just being rude, I would never have looked at his posts and noticed his dishonesty .

I still cant find one other.

That's because I deleted it. 'hisser' started a new thread and only signed it 'Brandon', without any last name. As such, I deleted it.

I suspect that ANY posts made by this person should be taken with a LARGE grain of salt.

Brandon, Brandon, Brandon.....why?

*sighs*

Brandon, will you please tell us why you felt it necessary to post as an alias to get feedback on your reputation?

While this is certainly not a good thing, maybe you should come here and explain yourself?

??? So your gonna buy some snakes from yourself?

ok lets clear things up

ok time to get this whole thing straight!!!
when i started getting in reptiles my friend(jesse howe) whos fauna name is hisser introduced me to fauna!! once i got going and had quite a few reptiles to sell/trade whatever!! i wanted to get my name out into the reptile market! i had no idea how to go about this so he started showing me aroun fauna i asked him to post one about me because when i tried dealing with people they would say "do you have any references" i would always say "no" since i have never dealt with anyone before. so me being young and stupid at the time decided to have my friend jesse write one about me under a different name!! i had him do this since i didnt know anyone before to have someone else do it. so he did!! and thats how that started so then i started doing deals with people
and i dint have a fauna screen name yet so i used his to write threads about people i have dealt with. then i started my own business with my fiance and got my own screen name with our business name the jesse posted about us (bandkreptiles) so know i was official,. well i got a lot of threads there and i must let every one know i never have had a bad deal and all my threads are good ones. well my fiance started getting out of reptiles so i partnerd up with a buddy and are now known as Twin-State Reptiles. and all my deals before were with band k so instead of haveing one of my buddys i dealt with when we were bandk start one i had my friend jesse do it again(another stupid mistake except im not as young anymore) i didnt want to start one for myself so i had him do it. i was just trying to get our new name out and let people know we have awsome animals and customer service. since i started with twin-state we have had numerous deals and everyone was a good one. but when i asked most of the people if they could post they said they didnt know how or werent signed up or someother reason. so thats why my friend did it. its not like he was telling people great stuff about us!! he was aking a questions so some of the people i have dealt with would post. it would be a different story if he wrote all this good stuff about us.so thats the story!! im real sorry about all this mess i got my self into!! i hope everyone can get past this and look at my good refrences!!

Al---- sorry for the fight we had in the chat room, i still dont recall calling you names but if i did im sorry and i hope we can move on about this. maybe do a deal someday!! but please dont post bad stuff about us when you never made a deal with us.any way lets move on and forget it !! email me and we can chat more baour this if you want [email protected]

Greg---- i quess i should of had you start a thread!! i should of told you !! sorry bud ! but at least if anyone has ???'s they can contact you and you can prove we are good people to do with! maybe they will belive you since you are nknow more then me

rich-- sorry for this big mess i caused i hope it doesnt effect my fauna membership

and anyone else who posted--- thanks for all your input hope we can get on with the wonderfull world of reptiles!!!

regretfully sorry

I wanted to give Brandon a try, So what I did is send this Jesse an email and ask if what Brandon wrote was true.

Hello,
Yes i can confirm this is true!! I was trying to help a buddy out, i know it wasnt the right thing to do but hey i have learned my lesson!
please post a reply on his thread saying that what he write was the right thing to do! you know he meant well and you know he did the =right thing to make things better!
thanks

Ya know, I may end up eating my shoe here, but I would be willing to bet this is just another lie and that in fact Brandon is Jesse. The above email was copied and pasted, and is 100% intact and original.

I will wait for a little while and we shall see if anybody else can see why I think Jesse is Brandon.


P.S. I thought that maybe it would be alright to take Brandons word on why he inquired about himself. But with more lies in his last post here, I will be the first one here to say "I think Brandon Dyke is a bad guy", I have not done business with him, nor will I in the future, but after being slammed and cussed out by him in chat, and then lied to by him in this post, I will never do any business with him ever. It is obvious to me that he is trying to cover a bad decision with a lie.

i think i see a pattern there. Know what i mean, Vern?

I actually have to admit I do see a pattern here too!! Anyhow, maybe I got lucky, but my dealing with him went just fine, and like I said the chameleon is beautiful. Hope you guys figure this mess out.
