    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....

Dan Scolaro bad guy.

Yeah Dany Boy That will never happen cause your a liar. Your not getting anything from me. except more of what you have gotten. Your just a weak wannabe
 
You have repeatedly claimed ht snake ever came from you. It did. You claim to have people that test your animls. You refuse to give out their names. You claim to hve neer sold sick animals ever. what about the boas that died after two days. You know the sickly wild caught specimens you sold and admited too. thts what makes you a liar. Your word is less than DooDoo Danny Boy. But I know that never happened. Yeah right

When did I lie? You sit there and charge me with making a lie and you do not have any evidence of me ever lying. Either provide the facts or apologize.

Dan

Here's just a few of Dan's lies to get it started....


First Dan says:
Dan Scolaro said:
FACT is that the other boas are thriving and there was never any mention of IBD virus in the report.

Then Dan says:
Dan Scolaro said:
I said the report said IBD in the first page of this and never denied it said IBD.

Dan says:
Dan Scolaro said:
that snake festered there for weeks if not a month while bloated.

But the buyer received the snake on 2/7, and the dead snake was delivered for necropsy on 2/11/08. That looks like, um, 4 days total. Not months, or even weeks.

Dan keeps denying that the snake in the photos was the one he sent, yet he said this, recognizing that the snake was the one that he sent:

Dan Scolaro said:
I packed a healthy fine snake and was very very very shocked to see it bloated in the photo the next day.

And then in refernce to Erik, Dan said:

Dan Scolaro said:
I am not going to start a bad buyer thread on him. I may start a rat pup thread, but not a bad buyer thread.

Plenty more where that came from....proof in his own words.

And from there, he's just having fun watering down the thread with a bunch of useless BS< hoping that folks won't take the time to read it enough to find the truth.

Smoke and mirrors, friends....it's all smoke and mirrors.

Dan's a liar. :)
 
Both of you are full of crap.

I never shipped a sick reptile in my life and you know it and won't own up to it. Those other viper boas were reported are received healthy and the buyer was quite happy with them. I have no evidence they passed away at all and perhaps they stressed from handling and died, but I met my part of the sales terms and instead of supporting that fact, you want to find another reason to point the finger instead of looking into the mirror at your own falults.

All you want to do is harp on some idiotic hearsay and misinformation and not one of you has any evidence to support your misguided and idiotic charges. You can cut and paste sentences and analyze my big toe if you want and all you will find is an honest dude having fun selling reptiles. Nothing you can do or say will rial or detract my attention from my hobby or impede any sale for anyone, and that is what is bothering all of you. You think you can use your influence to boss me or trick me or intimidate me and you fail time and time again.

Dan
 
They are your own words, Dan. You wanted proof of your lies, there they are, in your very own words, typed on your very own keyboard.

You are a liar, and not a very good one at that. :)
 
Ah, more garbage, I never lied. I paid the man 4 months ago and you are still here harping on some crap that has nothing to do with the matter of making good with the customer so find something better to do in life.

Dan
 
Dan, I don't want to argue with you on the points that you believe you are correct on.
I would like to offer another opinion in regards to the the other thread.
Of course you can just disregard it.

On post #106 you stated to Jesse-

Dan Scolaro said:
Well I will send you a pair of viper boas for free since you apologized. Please just give me a week or two to get them and feed them and check them out.

Dan

Jesse hasn't made any further posts and seems to have accepted your offer. On post #218 it seems you are now rescinding that offer to your customer.
At least that is how I read the post.
Dan Scolaro said:
Yea, after consult, I will stick with the terms of sale.
I understand your upset with everyone else here but I don't understand why now you would let that influence your previous decision to make your customer happy. It's not his fault the threads continued.
 
Oh, I am not upset.

I rather enjoy seeing these fools that have made charges based on hearsay and speculation run away with their tails tucked ashamed to apologize for all the false accusations they made which wasted everyone's time. I paid the fellow 4 months ago and boobs here and jumping up and down over nothing, no virus, no sick snake, no nothing. They are just mad because the other snakes never showed sick. No one asked me who the breeder was and if they were truly concerned they would have. But they don't care, they are just attacking because I told them their opinions mean squat and it makes them pissed. I know how to yank a chain if need be and I love to do it to these frequent posters because I see them jumping people all the time and no one wants to comment or post because they are afraid of being jumped for no good reason.

Yea, I was advised to stick to the company policy and terms of sale. There are exceptions of course when items are delayed due to shipper faults and such and those will be taken on a case by case basis of course but since I have made thousands of transactions, I was actually wondering when it might happen that I would be in a situation with refunds and such. But again, advice from professionals in the industry suggested I stick with the terms of company policy and I have reviewed several companies terms and their terms are quite tough.

Dan

He received the snake on February 7, and sent it in for necropsy on February 11. It is now May 15.

You're telling me (again) that you refunded his money before he even received the snake?


Dan Scolaro said:
I never lied

See, you just lied again. :)
 
I forget the date I shipped the snake, but the day he received it he called and we discussed it and that exact moment I paypaled him 150 bucks. I have a copy of the payment and I was informed the snake lived a couple weeks or longer so don't know what you based those statements on.

Dan
 
I will get a copy of the payment and such but am busy now. I just found my eastern hog dropping some eggs so have to get them into substrate and into the incubator.

Dan being polite here and just wanting you to consider the fact that you already offered to go outside the terms for this particular customer. The advice you received could be consider good, great or inadequate depending on different circumstances and point of views on future transactions. It just seems to me that since you already offered the replacements before receiving this advice that it would be a good thing to stand by what you already stated to the gentleman.

Just my opinion.
 
I found it fast. Snake was shipped on February 6th and arrived February 7th.

Refund is below, the next day like I said.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

Feb. 7, 2008 Payment To JOHN CRICKMER Completed Details -$150.00 USD $0.00 USD -$150.00 USD

Duh Dan....that's what I said, he received it on February 7. You kept saying you refunded the man in JANUARY....4 months ago....before the snake was even shipped.

Idiot.
 
Dan Scolaro said:

Dan

The man received the snake on February 7. The date of the necropsy was February 11.

So....I based those statements on FACTS. :rolleyes:
 
Dennis: You are the only one here with some sense. I always take care of the good guys and perhaps will later with him.

But besides that fact and don't run off, tell me what you would do if you sent a fellow 2 viper boas feeding on live mice and he said they arrived happy and healthy and 2 weeks later he calls you at 2 AM cursing at you? And keep in mind your guarantee is for live arrival. Would you send him 2 more snakes? Be honest now.

And again you do not know all the facts. I told him they only would eat live mice. Knowing this, he made a statment that he left in a dead mouse and it did not eat and he found it dead later? Seems odd to me. I think he put in food and the snakes were stressed from all of his handling and did not eat and the mice stressed them further and they died from the stress. That aside, I might take care of this on my own accord later and it is between him and me. I will call him in a week and see how settled he is over it all and see what I can do for him. I have 2 gravid specimens also and might be able to provide some babies so there are many options here.

You are quick and good at this investigation work, so show me another dealer who has a more than live arrival guarantee on wild caught snakes? Show me an instance when a dealer has before provided any snake or reptile after the owner reported them as received healthy and happy?

Dan
 
Cathy, that is great. You proved my point. He said he had the snake for a couple weeks before it died so how can the report on my snake be dated February 11th if it was still alive?

I don't mean to appear so daft on these details but since I am so convinced I shipped a healthy reptile, I never caught that fact.

I bet if you telephoned the lab, you will find this fellow deposited several snakes on many different dates.

Good Job Cathy.

Dan
