    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Dave Lawson Finally Where He Should Be

Dave Lawson said:
Alan, I know that most people here just like to stir the :censored: and then there is Scott that wants to come here and act like I have refused to pay or that Dennis has tried to collect but that is not the case at all. I have came here and said I owed Dennis I have tried to contact Dennis twice and was told he did not want to talk to me. I want to make arrangements with Dennis but He will not talk to me. I will try but Scott needs to stay out of it and allow me and Dennis to deal with this.

Not wanting to *talk* to you is not the same as giving up a claim to the money he's owed. Getting chatty with you is only likely to result in a load of lies and hollow promises about some kind of adherence to a payment plan that you'd never make good on...

Were I in a position where you owed me money, I wouldn't want to talk to your criminal ass either. I'd want my money. All at once, nice, total lump sum to prevent any weasaling about partial payments being accepted... and would never... ever... accept a personal check. Superballs come to mind.

I'm genuinely unsure if you're legitimately stupid enough to fail to comprehend why so many people think you're as slimey as you are... or if it's some kind of denial you're making in the hopes that people will forget. Whatever the case may be for your apparant inability to understand it... many, many people don't like you and don't trust you (with solid justification) and trying to duck out of a debt on the basis that nobody wants to get friendly with you and shoot the bull for awhile is just one more in a long line of truly idiotic attempts to fool someone. You're just straight up not clever enough to con people Dave, based on your limited intelligence, your only choice is honesty- trying to get tricky is just going to get you caught, every time and without fail.
 
Ok, Boys, both of you have made actionable statements. I will allow you boys to prove it now or prove it in a Pasco co. court. You decide.

Neil, you have said this before and Joe told you that you were wrong and Josie did the same.
 
Neil Gubitz said:
You burglarized my store THREE times,

I thought a certain private investigator had determined that in his professional opinion, you likely burglarized your own store on one of those occasions?
Wouldn't that make Lawson only responsible for two of those break ins? I could probably dig it up if I had to.

Lets not give Lawson any more credit than is due him. It might make him think he's smarter than he is. :NoNo:
 
The snake pit was robbed 4 times and I think that it was said the the evidence pointed to Neil doing it each time. Based on statements from Neils co-workers. In case you do not know Neil did not own the store he was only the manager his father owned it. Yes Neil stole from his own father.
 
Rick.... Don't you get it yet??.... To say it bluntly, I have never stolen anything from anyone in my whole life.... EVER!!
Now, I know you have some brains.... look at this logically if you don't mind??.... First, Lawson was the PRIME (and ONLY) person that that idiotic PI interviewed.... what do you THINK he's gonna think after Lawson spewed his crap??.... Second, I had NO insurance on those animals what-so-ever.... Why am I going to steal from myself, and lose my business, when I couldn't get ANY money back from them once they're gone??.... That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.... and then, what did I do with all those animals I supposedly stole from myself??.... It's funny that at the very next Daytona show, Lawson had them ALL of them for sale (or one's just like it).... Things that make you go hmmmm!!.... Third, go back to that LONG thread of mine and you will see that it was Lawson that made every accusation about me in there, with me trying (in vain) to say I didn't do it!!....
You've all witnessed how Lawson makes up crap all the time to weasel his way out of every situation, why wouldn't you think he'd do the same thing with that idiotic PI??....
So, to recap.... I never stole from anyone, ever.... I didn't burglarize my own shop (Lawson did it all three times, with the first burglary being the guy I bought the store from, Robert Frank, because I found all my animals in his house about 2 weeks after the burglary, his then girlfriend turned him in to me!!).... and I did NOT steal any money from The Fund that Lawson said I did.... Period!!
Lawson is a PROVEN THEIF and a LIAR.... Why on Earth would you believe him when he says those things about me with NO proof what-so-ever, other than his "word", which isn't worth my dog's crap....
ALL of my problems here stemmed from that one thread that Lawson was the main contributor to.... You all can still think what you want, but *I* know the truth, and the TRUTH is that Lawson did it ALL!!...
And Lawson, actionable or not, take me to court, I DEFY you!!.... I would just LOVE the chance to get you back in front of a Judge....

Neil
 
Oh, and my father put up the initial capital for the store, but I owned 100% of the stock shares in that store.... It was MY STORE and MY BUSINESS.... My father had NOTHING to do with anything that went on there.... Not to mention the fact that I would NEVER steal anything from my own family, or anyone else, for that matter!!.... I even caught Robert Frank stealing animals from Ben Siegel at the Tampa Show and turned him in for it!!....

I am absolutely innocent of every charge that THIEF has said about me, believe it or not....

Neil
 
I tried to find the PI report butit goes to a dead link. In the report I am sure that the P.I. Thomas Crowley staes that he interviewed several people and have independant evidence that showed Neil did it. So if someone could find that report and post it to show that Neil is being well neil again.

What would you do with the animals you stole from your Father store, I know that I am not the only person that remembers the ad several weeks later where Neil was selling the so called stolen Beardies.

Neil, I have not had a table at the Daytona show since "99" so when did you see your "stolen" snakes on my table in Daytona?

Neil, you defied me and I will do it, See you in court.
 
Dave,
your quote:

"Neil, I have not had a table at the Daytona show since "99" so when did you see your "stolen" snakes on my table in Daytona?"


You didn't have a table in Daytona in 1999.
The show was still being held in Orlando then.

lawson and Daytona

Why on Earth is a dirtbag like lawson allowed to vend at the Daytona show? Does his mommy front the money for him? Why do they even let him in the door?

Speaking of which... since he owes so many so much, is there not a way to put a lien on what he makes that day? I would imagine that it is pretty lucrative selling stolen animals and all...

Dave, You broke into my store The Herp Hobby Shop. You admitted to the police that you broke into my store The Herp Hobby Shop. That makes you a thief. Bob Potts

Oh jesus...how many times are we going to go through this?? :bandhead0


Dave Lawson said:
Richard and Sammy, I have done both

I have said it here that Yes I owe Dennis Not Scott

I have made 2 calls to Dennis and was told that he did not wish to talk to me.

It would seem that if Dennis was hard up for this money well he would talk to me about it.

You called here when your credit card machine was delived here in error. You have never once, to my knowledge, called here and said, "Hi, I owe Dennis some money and want to talk to him about dropping off some cash!"

I passed on the information to you that Dennis did not want you on the property. However, let me change that to say, Dennis does not want you to show up here with more stories and lies. If you want to stop by during business hours to drop off some cash, feel free to come by any afternoon between 2pm and 4pm.

Dave Lawson said:
See the point that you guys don't see is that Dennis and I had a agreement in 9/1/05 That his maintenance person allowed Bob Edwards into the building I rented from him and Edwards cleaned in out of animals. Dennis agreed that if I moved out on or before 9/1/05I would owe him nothing.

Over 1 1/2 year later Dennis files the suit, He never once contacted me. But Scott told me that he (Scott) would take some balls in payment I told him to pound salt and then the suit was filed.

You "rented" (and I use that term loosely, as you never actually PAID rent) the buliding for months. Once Dennis told you that you had to pay or leave, you packed up and hit the road, with a promise to pay off the back rent due. What you were told, if I recall correctly, was that if you paid the money you owed, that Dennis would void the remainder of the lease you signed. Dennis never saw you or the money again. When it was aparent that no money was coming, and I had started getting into ball pythons, I told Dennis that maybe I could get some female ball pythons out of you, in leiu or actual cash - since it was obvious that you were not going to pay. He said that I may as well try it...which I did. When I approached you about it, you said something to the effect of, "Yeah, sure...let me see what I can get!"

Again, all we heard from you was nothing.

At that point, Dennis filed suit, since you had been given a year to make good on your promises.

Dave Lawson said:
So yes I will talk to Dennis about this but Scott has nothing invested in this and therefore needs to stay out of it. I look at it like this if Dennis wants to talk then I will be more then happy to sit down and work it out, with him. But Scott need to keep stocking the warehouse selves. :thumbsup:

If it wasn't for me, no one else would know about this, so I feel that I am a pretty vital part of the puzzle at this point. If you ever actually PAY the money you owe Dennis, it will be soley based on my posts in this thread - otherwise Dennis would never have heard from you again. I am 100% confident in that.

It seems you take great pleasure in trying to make me into a "stockboy" or "warehouse worker", when in fact I am a General Manager of this company. My warehouse guys work hard, and believe it or not, they make over $200 per month (and that isn't even IN SEASON!). Like someone else said, maybe you should give warehouse work a shot. I cannot offer you a job here though, because I do not believe you would pass the background check. :shrug01:

As for why I don't talk to you at shows, it is really simple - you aren't a person that I would prefer to be associated with, and you aren't going to reach into your pocket at pay the money you owe.

Have a nice day.


Hold on a sec...after reading this again, this part strikes me as odd:
Dave Lawson said:

If I am not involved in this at all, as you like to say, Dave, how could I be responsible for the lawsuit being filed?? :shootfoot
 
I called twice since the lawsuit. That is when I WAS TOLD THAT DENNIS DID NOT WANT TO TALK TO ME. I like how in all your other post everything is a fact, but now its "You have never once, to my knowledge" and "What you were told, if I recall correctly". Well I did not just pack up and leave Dennis stopped by in his Jeep and we talked for sometime, matter of fact you were only there once and that was like 2 days after I moved in, you were never there when Dennis and I talked about me moving. So really there is nothing for you to "recall" or have "knowledge of".

"so I feel that I am a pretty vital part of the puzzle at this point. If you ever actually PAY the money you owe Dennis, it will be soley based on my posts in this thread "

Wrong again,
 
Still avoiding the issue Lawson. He told you where and when you could make payments.
 
Monday through Friday, 2-4 PM. If you dont show up at all this week with a payment then we all know (like we dont already) you are just full of BS Dave.
 
Just do it Dave. It will go a long way to beginning to repair your damaged reputation. Sure you will still have a ways to go but at least it is a starting point and in good faith.

You can do this today even, you have plenty of time. Come back post the receipt that you have paid some or all with no excuses and you will have taken the first step.

No more talk, no more excuses just go do it.
