Galileo Galilei may have said "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use". I will take your word for it. Now read it and try to interpret its meaning as you have so clearly missed it.
While you are at it try growing up.
My interpretation is : You got a Brain use it
I wonder if it would have been someone else that tied the money(Let's say me for instance) up for a month would you still have the same view?

Jim O said:
I never said it was OK to "hold" someone's money without permission. I said you were petty to think about $5 worth of interest when Ken indicated that the matter was resolved. That's called trying to stir up more crap when there is none to be stirred.
I wasnt trying to stir up crap I was just stating that i feel that i would be expecting more than a refund, Whether it be Interest or an apoligy, Its not the money its the POINT, Who Ever Said "Time is Money" Is right
"Its how a man handles his mistakes is what makes him good or bad"

Consider this quote: "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt." You have removed all doubt in your few posts on this site.
Haha that was a good one i thought about using it on you...lol
I dont mind you calling me names Hey i kinda like the attention
But no matter how hard you try you can not twist the truth of the matter
Tying someones money for a month without some kind of compensation
Is And Always Will Be Wrong

You see im not here trying to make a name for myself,I dont have a reptile business But... if i ever do you can bet that i wont comprimise my belief that a sucsessful business is ran Honestly,Morally and with Self Sacrifice Which before you ask means, That if i ever fall into the position of tying someones money up for a month which i will never be in But for the sake of argument i would feel obligated to compansate above and beyond a refund(.)

If you dont agree, Fine, If you want to riducule me fine (I really dont mind)
But if you are really friends with this guy that you are defending i suggest you let this one go and get me elsewhere If not thats fine also its your move
I'll See your qoute and raise you

Interesting spin. I did graduate medical school in 1984 and retired from medicine in 2001 as I have made abundantly clear. So yes, I am a doctor, never said I spend any time at it, unless you count doing some real estate investment consulting work for health care organizations, at (you guessed it) $300/hour. Money well spent seeing as how I did make some wise decisions allowing my retirement at age 41. As for being a landlord, well yes, yes I am. But that occupies 1-3 hours per day maximum as I am very efficient and have good people working for me. I never claimed to be an accountant. You asked if I would do your taxes. Anyone can handle the 1040 short form that you file (like the short bus that you rode to school no doubt) and I am always happy to lend a hand to a fellow herper.

Now, as long as we are doing quotes, here's one from Plato that I believe you ought to take to heart:
"Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something."

lol...You are begining to bore me with your highbrow insults, Maybe if you sleep on it you could come up with something better in the morning?

I gave you the courtesy of explaining my post many different ways so you can understand it Your character or mine hasn't anything to do with it but it does shed a little light on our business ethics I will state my oppinion and you will belittle me for it
If you dont agree with someone you attack with insults and whats with the bad reputation feedback,"im digging a hole " and insert foot"? thats kind of childish if you ask me more childish than stating your oppinion
Do you do business that way also i wonder?

I could go on and on with this but it seems you will keep distracting from the point
Sobeit
The Truth is you dont know what form(s) i use anymore than I know that you usedtobe a Doctor or have ever gotten $300.00 For some real estate consulting, See all you said was egotistical B.S.
I would pay the $300.00 Just for a good laugh
Btw It may be possible you've done the things you say,I just dont beleive you after seeing your ego and veiws firsthand i think it would be hard to be successful with your head in the way
Everytime i see your Boasts its "I'm a doctor", "Im getting paid", "im successful" or your wrong im going to attack you personally it makes me beleive that much more that you are full of it or at the very least on an EGO trip
Like i said before I really dont mind Defending myself it gives me something to do when not riding lil busses and i have the extra time since evidently i file the short form...lol
I'm not very good at spewing baseless insults, So here's my pathetic attempt
to do so; Since you are a Doctor can you cure yourself of that disease you have Cranial Rectumitis let me know how it goes
When you go cry to the moderators (if you havent already) make sure you show them this thread with the last couple pages of me defending what i said
from you
Thats exactly why its hard to form an oppinion on these threads Because people reading these threads have to sort through this kind of mindless drivel
Not because i supposedly was trying to start crap
As you may have surmised by now you cannot change my views on this
As far as the quote and picture goes i have to admit it was funny
But ... I can only get as much attention as you give me
I'll leave you with this Quote from one of my favorite people

I will accept that I have an ego if you accept that worrying about the last $3-$5 is petty, especially when the seller indicated the matter was resolved. I don't doubt that you believe it's right or that you are entitled to that belief, but that doesn't change the fact that it is petty. Unless...$3-$5 is that important to you in which case the short form is likely what you are filing. :rofl:

As for the short bus comment, well...my 10 year old can format paragraphs and sentences, and use capitalization appropriately, better than you can, and she can spell about as well as you do. My 15 year old daughter writes with a great deal more skill than you do. That's not intended as an insult but merely an observation. The short bus comment was insulting and I do apologize.

As for my "accomplishments", they are usually mentioned in context as they have nothing to do with herpetology. If you don't believe what I say do a simple google on James M Ohlstein MD and you will find lots of outdated hits. Since you are doubting my credentials, here they are: My Massachusetts license was #56657 and was allowed to lapse in July 2003 as I had ceased practice in 2001. My Virginia license was #01011232886 and was allowed to lapse at the end of May 2004 for the same reason. I graduated cum laude from SUNY Downstate in May 1984. My internship and residency were served at the old Boston City Hospital from 1984-1987. After that I practiced in Lowell, Massachusetts until 2001 and had an office in Westford, Massachusetts as well. My main affiliation was with Lowell General Hospital where I was chairman of the Department of Medicine in 1993-1994 if memory serves correctly. All of this can be verified as it is all a matter of public record, as are my real estate holdings. If you are really bored I can give you the addresses of as many properties as you like and you can verify my ownership online.

None of which changes your opinion that Ken should have received $3-$5 in interest, that Chris likely would have paid it had he been asked, and that Ken could give a rat's ass about the last $5. And that, my friend is why you are being petty. See, no one else cares about it. You stand on an alleged principle that borders on cheapness, just as with the $7 worth of week old waxworms that you kept trying to find a reason to fault LLL with when so clearly the customer had no reason to expect a refund, nor was she even looking for one. Once again, an example of your petty (yes petty) insistence on someone else getting money from someone they are not looking for.

Oh, and if you don't like negative reputation points, don't say things to earn them, and don't retaliate like you did.

Thanks guys, glad its over thats for sure. Now i can start building my reputation as a good guy, from the bottom as we always start out.

Hey Chris, I just noticed this thread and I'm glad everything worked out here.

Just incase we'll we waiting the two weeks to release your order for shipping to be certain your payment clears. No offence, we have a business to run and do not enjoy getting hit with negative balances. It's nothing personal, just a precaution anyone would take after seeing something like this happen with customer. We're still getting caught up from our shipment delays due to the previous weeks of unusually warm weather anyways so its not a surprise as we discussed previously. Once everything clears and such I'll be sure to post it here for you in the form of a good guy thread.

I'll catch up with you in chat this evening perhaps....

ttyl!

Didn't Chris (herpluver) just write this in his last post?

"I hope in the future (when i'll be dealing strictly with money orders) we'll be able to do business again."

Did he just make another PayPal payment in the form of an echeck? Was he expecting shipment -or- was shipping already arranged prior to the funds clearing?

Just curious.
 
No, it looks as if it was an instant payment. If it were an echeck there would automatically be a hold on said funds...... for obvious reason. But sometimes when making an instant payment it depends on the source of the funds. Just to be safe since we were waiting to get caught up and shipping orders on a first come first serve basis I think its safe we wait just to make sure everything is kosher. No offence to Chris intended... Just covering our bases. :)
 
I just spoke with Chris via PM moments ago and he sent a screenshot copy of his end of paypal. The payment he sent was a 'cash' payment directly from paypal funds, and also howed a positive balance after the fact. I have no worries our transaction will be flawless. Just thought I'd update.....

LOL... i see that one coming so let me say before its twisted, Even though everyone has an ego some are worse than others
When does it stop being petty at $10,$20... Let me answer that,When a business person stops blaming outside influences and sets things straight in a timely maner.
Is the damn horse dead yet?

No, Chris should not have tied Anybody's money up for a month and should have felt obligated to compansate above and beyond the initial refund.

I never said i didnt like them just didnt like the way they were applied, I didnt think that was the way they were to be used
And i will always retaliate when i am attacked

So let me make this clear
Buyers have the same rights as sellers and vice versa
Whether i can read,write,fill out a short 1040,ride the lil bus or whether i am just plain out stupid will not make a wrong a right
You can muddle it anyway you want to It still wont make you right
