Jim Case, Jason Koscak & Jeremy Clark - Cleveland,TN [email protected] (BAD GUYS)
These three guys, spearheaded by Jim Case of Cleveland, TN tried to rip me off for about $3000.00 on 12/28 - 12/30/04. I secured a CB H.h. horridum shipped DELTA for $1050.00 via Western Union, the balance on the albino balls was to paid by overnight check. When the animals didn't show up on the 4 PM flight on the 29th I was told by Jim Case that Jason Koscak had chosen NOT to send the animal DELTA because the 10:35 flight out of Chatanooga, TN was delayed and that it would arrive EARLY AM UPS on the 30th. They chose to send a POISONOUS reptile and 2.0 adult ALBINO ball pythons via UPS instead!
The UPS tracking number checked out but the AMAZON.com box arrived empty of reptiles and half open. No bags or other evidence that the animals had EVER been in the box, the Hand Warmer (22 hour at best?) heat packs were stone cold and the box was oversized with only crumpled newspaper for packing and insulation (NO STYRO at all). Repeated phone calls yielded no results so me, my son and a good friend drove 7 hours to thier front door, gave them thier empty box and collected the money and left.
We were VERY fortunate to have had things go as smoothly as they did. I would NOT recommend this approach generally. The best policy is DO NOT send money to unknowns, especially by Western Union.

I drove 7 hours to get there! And I'll do it again!! I got most of my animals back but he had already sold my albino boa and some other stuff. He signed a contract infront of me and bob hammond stating that he would pay me back my money .....guess what....in never happend.
