    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.

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site.

Bad Guy Bridge Dragons -http://www.thebridgekicks.com - STOLE MY MONEY!

I am assuming Randie is Shawns girlfriend.

Both are from Pittsburg.

Possibly, but it appears that it's the very same person doing the actual writing, again, judging by their identical writing styles. No matter what, at the very least, someone was posting under another person's screen name without signing their own name to it.
 
Let me refresh your memory.

You changed your user name to shed at least 1 bad guy thread about you.you changed the name on the account to deceive people.

Oh Ed now that's a horse of a different color! Is that what I did?? I wonder how you know that. Can you read my mind? So obviously you posted on here to pick an unnecessary fight rather than staying on topic.This is a grudge your holding eh?? Your referring to a shipping error from when? About 4 years ago when you purchased a dragon and a former business partner Shawn Carter didn't insulate the box. You Ed just like Wendy ran and blasted my business name before even trying to resolve the issue with us personally. Changed the business name to deceive people?? No I shut down bridgedragons.com so I changed the user name from bridgedragons.com to simply bridge dragons and also I run the breeding projects on my own now so I changed the name to my name Randie Trump. If you'd like see a copy of my birth certificate or utility bills I'd be happy to share them. Also if I was trying to "deceive" people and shed my one and only Bad Guy post which was made by you I would have not used bridge dragons at all.I would have changed it completely to something else.Come on man grown up. What can I do to satisfy your anger in all seriousness.I have some extreme red hypo translucents I will producing this winter and also some high end ball pythons.I'd gladly ship you one of your choice free of charge.I'm not being arrogant or sarcastic I'm being serious. You have a stock pile of bad guy threads on here that you never resolved but you'll come on here to try and stir up something from 4 years ago maybe longer??I have all good guy threads and trader ratings except from you and now Wendy in which both are unjust due to the fact neither of you contacted me first to resolve the issue before posting a bad guy thread.So you can read this and try to turn this into a 20 page thread and argue and rebuttal everything I'm saying all you want but your arguing with yourself.I can be a child and highlight all your bad guy threads and how you were banned from Fauna but that's where we differ.I'm an adult and your probably 20 something years older then me sitting on your computer thinking it would be cute and getting a thrill from coming on here with nonsense.
 
His avoiding Wendy's ship orders...he prevaricated. She clearly stated that she would "pick up," but he started stressing the weather and didn't want/have cool packs (which are easy to get). ...just making excuses... was a red flag..

Thanks guys, nice to have evidence!

That was Wendy that brought up the weather not me.
 
I definitely didn't rip Wendy off.I posted the pictures of the texts showing I kept trying to contact her and she never responded back.I still have the roaches and I have my refund so I am more than willing to ship her back the roaches but I need confirmation from her.I can't just ship them out.That's that. I can't and won't sit on here and argue with everyone now.I provided everything I can to show she was obviously not being truthful.My name is Randie Trump.I don't rip people off or scam people.You can ask anyone who has met me or has done business with me I'm a good guy. Take Care Folks!
 
Interesting...You bought from someone with a bad rep, and then expect the leopard to change it's spots...

Both of you are in the wrong here, and both of you need to (wo)man up and fix it.

I was interested in a dragon bridge dragons had an ad up for a few months ago. I did a BOI check and saw the 2 User names, one with dot com on the end & decided to pass. I feel that it is shady to change User names & personal names to avoid a BG thread.

Randie / Shawn whoever you are, whatever Ed has done, at least he goes by one name and doesn't change it to suit his needs. I've not read his BG threads, but as he isn't the subject of this thread, you are, his BG threads are irrelevant. You are trying to deflect your misdeeds onto someone else. I knew exactly what Ed was talking about when he referenced your other name.

The writing style of Shawn and Randie are the same. No spaces after periods & absolutely no breaks between paragraphs. I quit reading his responses as it was to hard to read and follow.

Wendy, I don't have anything to say, except Karma. If Shawn/Randie ripped you off, tough. No one here is going to sympathize with you.
 
That was Wendy that brought up the weather not me.

Wendy told you what to do; and didn't need to "respond" again...imo. Creating a need for a response does not mean a response is necessary. You stated you didn't know of any cooling packs that last two days. A legitimate customer would have shipped back priority express and swallowed any extra just to resolve the issue and make it go away. But this is only MY opinion, and I could be wrong because I know absolutely nothing about shipping roaches. :shrug01:

I do, however, understand Customer Service and all its disguises. In this situation YOU kept the issue going. Once Wendy (and knowing her reputation) gave you her directions, you should have proceeded with all haste to rid yourself of the complication. You didn't, you gave excuses, flimsy excuses, imo.
 
Dang... everybody is screwing everybody. Thats just sad. I know if you've been in the business long enough, you'll have some unhappy customers, but man!

Yall are :shootfoot:shootfoot:shootfoot:shootfoot

:shrug01:

Even though people may have done shady stuff in the past, you still shouldn't feel as if you're dignified in pulling the same stunts. Integrity, in my opinion, is how you act when no one else is watching. :NoNo:
 
Randie / Shawn

This is a simple fix for you,you have the roaches and you also have your money that you paid for them.

You can feed off the roaches,you can resend the payment for them.or

You can return them ASAP keep your money and all you will be out is about $10.00 for priority mail shipping.maybe if you ask nice she may refund your shipping cost?

Good luck with whatever you decide.

Thats true... $10 is like, lunch for one day. Not a big deal to attempt to rectify the situation and improve your status on the BOI, IMHO. The situation may be emotionally charged, but logically, $10 is nothing to compared to your professional integrity and status in this industry.

Are you really going to sink that far over some roaches?

Deborah, read the texts again, I believe you're confusing who said what.

I wouldn't send the roaches back without being paid for shipping first.

Dang! You are right!! :rofl: Thanks for pointing that out. I really sounded like a "self-important' idiot. :rofl:The premise is still valid though, all he needs to do is send her stuff back.

I don't care about her crying, but the longer he stalls, the worse HE looks.:shrug01:

Agreed. It ain't rocket science and it ain't CSI. I'm sure this unsuccessful transaction can easily be rectified and no further business should be conducted by the two parties.

Frankly, what I am more perplexed by (and stunned by the sheer audacity) is Wendy's "Bad Guy" post for this roach transaction, when she has yet to address the post made on 8-8-12 relative to the obviously neglected (and dead 7 days after receipt) high-end N. Faly chameleon baby she (and/or her mother-doesn't matter) sold to another unhappy customer for far more than the roaches.
Where is your answer/defense for that one? That animal suffered and did not die after only 7 days due to anything the buyer did.

http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1498688#post1498688.

And why is it that you have an account here selling the same animals listed under your mother's name at KS?
 
Either way, randie has the roaches & the money. S/he needs to send them back. Ship them back the way you received them. If it was good enough for wendy to send them out like that, ship them back. I would put a hold on them to pick up at the PO. Add your receipt, maybe she will pay the $5 - $10 that it cost to send them.

Why should the buyer be out one red cent because someone else screwed up? If she wants her roaches back get a label and email it over or mail it out. Wendy screwed up and now wants somebody else to pay for her mistake. I don't blame the buyer at all for not paying to send them back.

Wendy agreed to pay shipping.

On the 13th he said he wanted discoids and "could i send them now?". I replied that as soon as he sent the others back I would ship on same day I receive them. To put a receipt for his postage in the package coming to me so he gets the refund for postage.

Quite frankly, because it would go a long way towards repairing Randie / Shawn's reputation. As it stands now he is a thief, no better than the OP.

Would your reputation be worth $10 kerre, if you were in this situation? Would you rather be out $10 that be considered a thief? I know I would.

My personal dislike for the OP aside ... returning the roaches is the right thing.

However, Wendy may want to address some of her own BG BOI posts before posting again.
 
And we all know the value of wendy's word. A BIG FAT zero.

Were it me, I wouldn't ship until I had the label in my hand and a refund cleared.

Some folks just aren't trustworthy. Isn't that right, mr. clark?

They buyer currently has the roaches & the money.

Wendy could send a postage label, then she would get her roaches back.
