    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. 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 I have a problems with Justin

Plus this is a forum... Is your real name "Webslave"?

Well tell me, are you just too visually challenged to see my name in the NAME field in my profile to the left of my posts, or is there some other cerebral deficiency at work that prevents you from understanding what I meant in my statement to the person who started this thread? :rolleyes:

My intent was to try to verify that a REAL NAME was provided in the profile field, for those who seem unable to determine that on their own.
 
hi guys, i hope this doesn't get too confusing and i hope this isn't against the rules to share accounts, but first let me introduce myself.

i'm andrew. i'm jerry's cousin from california and i've been helping him with this problem due to time zone issues as well as language issues.

he asked me to help him with this thread because of such. so sometimes i will be replying to questions.
 
What do you guys know that we don't know? Inquiring minds want to know! :p



A whole lot to be honest. Its amazing how one guy can cause so much crap and seemingly get away with it. If I posted it, it would all be hearsay until the people it happened to posted it.


Here's a couple email exchanges I've had with him. The part where I asked him about daytona ended getting me a police report filed against me because he said he felt bodily harm would come to him if he went. He also filed that report two months after the show had ended.

I don't know how you have made so many mad at you. I talk to a lot of people in the industry and when I chat about hognose with them your name comes up in casual conversation. Not my problem or my deal so I usually tell them I don't really need to know.

The truth...

All of Joes animals the Anery he post the amazing femaletoffee etc..were neverpaid for ..I got pissed told him to F off then he started bashing my name. I charged Joe only 2000.00 forBOTH never was paid..good friend huh..I also rebuilt his collection after his loss and gave him stuff and charged him 1/2-1/3 and this is what I got ripped off..

Don ShoresI caught himlying to me repeatedlywhen we teamed upinthe Extremebreeding program together, after 2 years of coming up with all sorts of excuses why he wouldn't let me see my animals I broke off relation's with him as well.. now he's bashing me..he was supposed to be a good friend. Ask yourself if you'd be pissed if he had 40k in your hatchling at his house and he wouldn't let you see them..but he was showing them of to other people etc..BTW I never did get my super nice tiger female from him back..he claimed she died..never saw a pic , body or anything..LOL it's also weird that extreme red's showed up in Europe the year prior and I never sent any there..

Don Soderberg screwed me royally on a breeding project..I came up with a plan to come up with a new morph. Sent him a pair of snakes to breed to him animals and was told many times through emails etc. there were eggs hatchling etc.. all I got were my snakes back and no explanation as to what happened to the babies..His official explanation..he made a mistake there were no babies. I have emails from him praising me thenlater coming unglued on me and calling me all sorts of crap when I asked about my snakes..now he is bashing me!! lol!!

Brent and David conspired to go after my projects, reputation everything..totally unprovoked as always I have emails showing this stuff.. david is my 1st cousin and after years of helping him build his collection he turn his back on me because of the oppurtunity to team up with brent to make a fortune..LOL that failed due to bad timming and a hurricane..and some help from a lawyer.

BHB mad because I sold the Toffee's so cheap and didn't let him buy all of them so he can corner the market with another hog morph.I also sold 20k worth of stuff for him and was promised a commission and never got even a thank you...lol

Remember Dan Eby..he promised me the entire clutch of reds he been posting and the ones he sent to Cochran, Vince etc.. I prepaid him a deposit for that clutch and received a female that was in horrible shape as part of the deal..have emails etc..proving this and I never got one snake from that clutch I waited a year on..he gave and sold the snakes to others etc..but it is nice to see them being posted by everyoneand I get nothing..but he got my tiger albino male an easy 800-1000 animal..BTW it was never sold to him as a visual red animal..if you'd like to see the emails I still have them saved..you see I keep very good records on everything because of this high school style shit that goes on time and time again..if you want to question my honesty..then read the emails..then I think you'll be questioning the honesty of the majority of the people who are mad at me...

I can also assure with the people I have made mad at me(my competition)I have made 100X that number happy. I sell out the majority of my stuff in 4-6 months. There's 2 sides to this argument, that's why I have been asked to write a book, should have something in Reptile mag toward the end of the year and appeared on reptile radio. I have also been asked to give presentation at local herp clubs and shows etc..So obviously charles there are much much more happy with the way I do business and who see things my way then not..

Also another point, my website logs in all the IP's that visit my site and which pages..one day I should post all the people who frequent my caresheet..it is so funny that there the same people above and the same very people who are bashing me on the forums etc.....now that is the ultimate last laugh isn't it...
Best Regards,
Justin



Here's the best pic of the reports I can muster at the moment.

Sorry, but it IS against the rules here. You will need to have your own account showing your own REAL name in order to post here. Each post made needs to be explicitly identified as to who is making the statements.

I STRONGLY recommend that you do not share the same account when posting in this forum.

due to account sharing being against the rules, i have registered a new username to help manage this thread for jerry.
 
I just hope that the OP finds some how to post all of the pertinent information and is still within the BOI rules so we can see this all unfold. I will say that I have heard A LOT of things about Justin's business dealings and have yet to hear anything positive. I'm sure that there are a few people out there that he has done well by. I mean even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while. Lol

I have had the displeasure of dealing with Justin Mitcham once, and it was not a good transaction. I do not want to give up the details just yet because I am sure everyone wants emails and proof as they should, and I am not home to provide this info. Plus isn’t it just so much fun waiting with excitement for the next twist of this train wreck. I will post soon I promise. Paul Wyble Steel City Exotics

PS I think now is a perfect time for everyone else that has had dealings with Justin to step up and let your voice be heard. I know he is very quick to threaten with lawsuits of defamation of character and such, but don’t you think he should be stopped? You all know how it felt when it happened to you so don’t let it happen to anyone else.

Can you at least post a few emails that shows you had a dealing with him?

this is an email that justin responded to line by line, so i've bolded and added JM next to the parts where he responded.

there are several back and forth emails about justin not wanting to ship the reptiles and will refund the money, and then all of a sudden he doesn't want to refund the money and will send the reptiles, and back again to ship reptiles, send money.

in the end, justin changed the terms of the agreement and said the only way he will release the animals to jerry is if jerry flew from taiwan to florida to pick them up in person. justin said he will not release the animals to anybody but jerry.

this was near the end of our communications with justin due to hiring the collection agency.

can't seem to edit my posts, but i just want to clarify that in the e-mails from justin he did say that he will not release the animals to anybody he doesn't know or trust and that jerry can hire an exporter to pick the animals up from florida.

I think these emails are the most important. The prior emails seem like pre-sale, we need post-sale to see if he actually took the funds.

How much would that cost? Might be worth it to be able to inspect the animals first..........that is assuming that Justin has the animals and shows up which seems highly unlikely.

i don't have a single email where he confirms the balance of 13,500 other than the one above. i have one or two emails confirming that he's received small pieces of that 13,500 here and there, but that's not complete so i hesitate to post it.

in the below emails i will post the emails i have about the whole back and forth situation, but jerry should have them all and i will work with him tonight so we can post the right ones.

i will try to post them all in chronological order so it reads easier.

This is Sheila

How dare you treat him this way!! you are very selfish!! Have someone we do not know call him 2x while he was at the doctor, several emails everyday so many we cannot even keep up with them. You know he is hurt bad, I already told you he cannot answer emails. I do not want him working.he has taught you everything, made you the breeder in Taiwan, gave you face , given you an Adult female worth 4,000 in which you made much more than he ever owed you.
Would anyone but a good friend do all this for you!! HE COULD OF JUST SOLD THE FEMALE AND NOT OWED YOU ANYTHING., or paid you back and kept the female to breed for himself.
ALL YOU GIVEN HIM IS HALF of what his animals are worth. I do not even know why he sell to you he does not make anything from you! BUT YOU MAKE A LOT FROM HIM!
I do not like seeing him so upset over all of this, he has done all he can for you and you treat him like he is a bad person.
Send me your Bank Wire info and a bill to [email protected] , I AM canceling the order and you will be paid back every dime.
Please do not contact him again or speak bad of him to others or I will let the Taiwan Authorities see your email asking to Adjust invoice.

yes thank you...now that you have cleared up the problem we will be shipping after the xmas holidays.
I tried booking for next week but there is no space available. The following week perhaps , but it is the busiest shipping week of our year.

I finally got the booking arrangements and then opened your last email (I said to you 100x now..dont send so many emails because I cannot read them all) to inform you that the shipment is going out next week after the snowstorms here in Texas and the east coast passes. As you can see on the news the US has been in a snowstorm for the last several days even snowed in Texas, today it is 0 to minus 3 C. To make matters worse on the USA west coast all the reptile exporters I use went to the Pomona Reptile show last week so I did not hear back from them until today.
There is no direct flight from Texas to Taiwan for animals due to the cold so I have to have someone in California to export it!! But in order to get the shipment to california it has to go to the sorting facility in Illinois..very complicated..

Your constant threats have pissed me off for the last time..
You know this take days to arrange and you still threaten me almost everyday with emails.
I have decided to cancel the shipment , I will deal with the collection agency or your representative.
The animals will be held until the court resolves the situation.
Your threat now gives me no option but to settle this matter in court.

Also keep in mind that you trying to force me to smuggle animals for you will be a huge problem for you here in the US court as well for any collection agency LOL

Jerry i use to be a debt collector for years so I know the law VERY well..

I am now informng you officially that since you are collecting a debt that you must abide by US laws governing debt collection practices. be very very careful what you say or do..the laws here in the US are very strict.

I am now informing you that you are not to contact me any further via email or phone. I will await proper contact through official channels i.e collection agency, court ,certified mail etc..

They will know how to reach me.

All emails from your IP address have been blocked.

You are welcome to come and pick up your order in Daytona, florida , it will be easy for you to hire an exporter to ship from there to Taiwan.
Until then your order will remain here until this matter is settled in court or you pick the animals up in person at daytona.
The animals will be there for you..you can come get them or not.. I will not give them to someone I do not know or trust.
 
How much would that cost? Might be worth it to be able to inspect the animals first..........that is assuming that Justin has the animals and shows up which seems highly unlikely.

at this point jerry would rather be refunded. the animals are at least 5-6 months old by now i think. how do animals depreciate as they age?
