    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....

Bad Guy Donald Rollins

what i meant to say is it is funny the way she is acting but still expects a refund.

i mean there is no right or wrong in thie situation, if the animals showed up dead i would want a refund to. i think thats how it should be period. i mean its a bummer that you open a box of frozen lizards.
its not funny she has lost the dragons. its funny to me that she is lying so bad. its really sad.

ed i sent you a PM. i await your response

thanks
jesse
 
Yes john i believe it has. an i dont want to be punished by a mod for getting off topic but i am just trying to prove that nicole norton is a liar. i have provide proof. should i make a new thread about nicole norton being a liar? no i wont do that but thats what she is
 
Mr. Wisecup,
Do as you will but I believe the best thing to do would be to walk away from this one.

By the evidence Ms. Norton did receive dead animals and is entitled to a full refund. I realize that Mr. Rollins may have delt with you fairly but your defending him in this instance is only harming you and doing him no good. If he has the courage to speak up for himself that would be good and if not he is going down as a "Bad Guy" to deal with no matter what you say.

Do the smart mature thing and walk away.
 
John

i will do so.
but just know john that i was not backing donald up in this deal if he did scam her thats just crappy. sorry for your loss nicole. an remember i never said you dont deserve a refund. anyone who recieves dead animals should get one.


thanks everyone
jesse
 
Yes becuase or immature friend here "Jesse" has insisted on PMing things then altering aims and taking fake screen shots and altering them It's typical BOI B/S it also shows Jesse here is in big with donald as he has stated "well it is funny to me that nicole wants her money back." we have uncovered to bad guys Donald Rollins and Jesse
 
jesse, you keep digging deeper and deeper?

There is a wrong here, someone received 2 dead dragons and the scumbag seller Donald Rollins refused to refund any money at all!

Do you see the wrong now?

I read your pm, I do not want to talk man-man with you...how the hell can that happen with a 16 year old boy?

what i meant to say is it is funny the way she is acting but still expects a refund.

i mean there is no right or wrong in thie situation

ed i sent you a PM. i await your response

thanks
jesse
 
OMG - you people are amazing.
Let's keep this on the topic of Donald Rollins.
Jesse - you will be receiving a PM from me when I have time to attend to it.
Nicole - focus yourself on Donald, and leave Jesse alone
If this BS continues, you'll both find yourself on a temporary vacation from this site.
(you guys are probably lucky I'm on my way out the door, and don't have time to deal with individual posts)
 
hhmoore,
Thanks for stopping it and no problem sticking to the Donald guy looks like i will fight for my money well let fraud deal with it.
 
I find this hard to believe. i have done alot of buisness with donald rollins an he has never ever done me wrong.
Did he garuntee you live arrival?
Cause right now everyone is only hearing your side of the story
theres your side. there is his side. theres a lie an a truth.
is donald aware of this thread?

i just called him an let him know

he said he didnt garuntee live arivall.

Live arrival guarentee or not, its no excuse for putting sickly animals in a box to freeze to death! When you are dealing in living creatures there needs to be more care than if you were packing up a shipment of books from a bookstore. What is wrong with some people???
 
This is from msn my buddy Darren is big into working with websites, pictures and also dose photoshoping on the side he checked these pictures and guess what, they where altered as i warned everyone they would be

First off as i have stated this needs to stay on donald rollins but since you insist on continuously keep bringing others in it i will say this. jesse wasnt defending donald.. he was only stating he had a good transaction with him which he could have face to face because then you cant scam someone. but to im him with bs and threats about someone else? you should grow up yourself. now on to this...... you have this guy saying this was altered because he knows, he used his altering program? you and him both are liars, i code and program and there are no such programs that you can use that will tell you if text has been altered and if there were then he wouldnt know how to use it considering he doesnt even know how the guy got your font size and color? it's called copy and paste and any one that knows how to sign on a computer knows how to do that or atleast i would think they do lol. your genius does not have a clue what he's talking about. now i do agree donald owes you and i dont deny that by the evidence i have seen but that has nothing to do with jesse or anyone so no need for dragging people in this because he said he never had a problem with the seller.
 
Nicole, did you happen to take any pictures of the packaging. If so I would be interested to see it.

One thing I saw on the original post is that you seemed to be very adamant about getting them shipped out quickly, even knowing that the temperatures in Ohio and New York were well below freezing. Hopefully I was reading it wrong, it just seemed that way to me. I know a lot of people will guarantee live arrival when temps are say between 40 and 90 degrees, but will not if temps are outside of that range. I don't do that, and would rather lose a sale than an animal from shipping in extreme temps, but some do.

I do feel your due a refund and hope you get it. I am lucky enough that I have never had to open up a box to find DOA's. It has to be hard to deal with.

I agree and i know this since i live in ohio also and watch the news all the time that neither ohio or ny has seen above 35 degrees in around a month or 2 until this past week and new york is even colder than ohio.
 
Actually I was pushing him int he email to ship the day I had 45 degrees during day and was 41 at night but he kept putting me off then shipping when I told him not to on a day it was only 28 degrees outside he hasn o reguard for an animals well being hell the guy was telling me how all his snakes had mites in thier eyes which scared me a bit to where I almost backed out.

Sorry no pictures of how it was packaged

the box was 14 x 16 he put a big plastic show box in it with tons of holes, then two peices of foam on long side of box holes pocked all through that one tiny heat pack under the plastic box the heat pack was about the size of my toe and frozen solid, there had tobe over 50 holes poked in this box, and I told him ship Priority over night with fedex they will have it here by 10:30 am he ignored me did standard they didn't get here untill 4PM.

I am reporting him for a second case of fraud right now
 
Yes, you can buy small hand warmers at sporting goods stores , home depot, wal mart etc. these inexpensive hand warmers should not be used for shipping herps when an extended ship time with heat is needed, they only last a couple of hours.

You can get good heat packs that will last 40, 60 or 72 hours. it makes all the difference in the world when shipping in the cold.

Heat packs come in the size of a toe?
 
I've bought those before.. I just never saw them the size of a toe.. they've always been at least hand sized. (4-5 inchs square).
Just wondering. I also have a selection I've gotten of the longer hour heatpacks, and those were not that much larger in size, although I'd assume they hold more stuff in them to heat up for longer.
Sorry to go slightly off-topic.
 
He apparently doesn't want to show up to defend himself which tells me that he knows he is wrong. His shipping methods, as you have described them, are horrible. There is information on reptile shipping all over the web. A simple google search will turn up at least a half dozen or more different websites with that information on the first results page. He really has no excuse for shipping like that other than to save money.

The majority of bad guy threads on here all stem from someone wanting to save money. Save money on animals, save money on shipping, save money on supplies. And in the end it's always the animal that suffers the most. It's sad really.

Again I hope you are able to get a refund. Either through him or your credit card reversing the charges. Maybe he'll learn that saving money on reptile shipping actually costs you more in the end.

His IP address is probably already banned from the previous flood of scams he and others were involved in. It's not as if there's anything to be said in defense of the way they were shipped if what the OP says is true.

I hope you're able to recover your money. And hopefully this will warn others off doing business with him.
 
Sooo I get a call from donald today first words are "Listen here you little who$e" big mistake I tore him such a new butt hole he wont forget he proceeded to tell me I am stupid and don't know how to ship dragons that he knows more then me (Hmmm that why they came dead? Emaciated?) I went right out and said really that why they where packed with a tiny heat pack that is a walmart brand one that lasts maybe 2 hours with 50 holes pokedi n box and shipped to me when both where EMACIATED I atually sent pictures of them to my vet she said they wouldnt have survived no matter what based on how horribly skinny they where. Soooo he tells me "Geuss what you little bitc* Im not refudning you and you cant do anything about it you can shove your credit card company up your as@ and tell your little fauna friends to go to hell"

Well I have picture proof, email proof, and a vet on my side credit card company will easily get my money back and I willnow post this bad guy information on him on all reptile/snake forums on the net.
 
.....I was on kingsnake and found this guy Donald Rollins selling some beardies cheap.....

This should have been your first hint of trouble. :ack2:

You should post whatever contact info you have of him as well like his address etc. Just in case he tries to use a different name or some other tricks.

scumbag.....
