I understand. If your ears ring as much as my phone the past 2 nights,......

I forgot to point out that that shipment was only last June 14.

Jerry is not the only one upset. The ramifications from an accident involving a King Cobra shipped by UPS sends chills down the spines of any serious herper. It's no secret that I have been bitten more times than I am proud of, and I don't wish a venomous snakebite on ANYONE. Again, If you need help with the data from Delta, just say the word.

We all make mistakes, and do things that we latter regret. Sometimes it is better to acknowledge our mistakes, and take care that we don't repeat them. When I think of some of the stupid things I have done, that could have killed myself or others, I thank God that I learned my lessons in life without serious incident.

I don't believe that anyone is going to benefit from all the excessive bickering here. It can't do your business or reputation any good. If you chose not to show your proof, that is your option, but then you might look better to just drop the whole thing. Evcen when the threads involved you and I, nobody gains from 1000 pages of silliness.

Be blessed

I gain back more respect for you with each post, I know that we have had our differences and I totally understand people being upset with the ups accusations. I assure you, they were only made to make me look bad because of the other intentions the original poster had in mind with the whole deal. I do think that alot of people have seen that even though there has been alot of bickering about other things. If I would have made a mistake in this instance, I would have simply dropped it. But I asked for proof of the allegations along with the people on this thread. I will admit to a mistake and that was even selling the king to this guy in the first place, I should have sent his money back to him when it first became apparent that he was going to be a pain in the butt, but like alot of others that sell reptiles, we sometimes make the mistake of going ahead with the deal and it only turns out to be more trouble later on. I am sure we can both agree on that, LOL. As I discussed with you via email, this was not a deal of simply sending the snake to the purchaser, it was a long three week ordeal that was confusing and a pain at best. He emailed me a month after he decided he wanted his money back and I told him I didn't have the cash on me at that moment. I did however set him up with someone else that was going to purchase it, and as someone else mentioned, he was asked for a current picture with a current date to be sent to finalize the purchase. He failed to do that. Then once again, I asked the same for months and didn't get a picture except for one that was taken right after the snaked showed up. I continously got rotten emails and messengers saying that I had better send the $800 back or else. When I finally said that it was coming collect or I was not buying it back, he posted on here with a bunch of lies and false accusations. Now it has been at least six months, I would say more like 8 months+, and I have yet to get an answer to all the mysterious problems that surround this deal or any proof of life with the cobra, hell, I didn't even get an answer to if the snake is still in his possesion(alive or dead).
My advice to anyone selling snakes on the net is, if the person is in any way, shape, or form, a problem at the beginning of the purchase, then promptly say "No thanks" and never read or reply to an email from the person again. It is just simply not worth it. I do feel bad for the king, because that was one of the nicest kings I have ever had or seen, and now it probably died because an idiot decided to buy it without the knowledge or skill to take care of it. I think that maybe when you put "experienced only" on the ads, it is viewed as a challenge by idiots that have no business getting it in the first place.
Kevin
PS-here is the picture that he kept sending me over and over, it was taken not even a week after he got the snake....

 

[acebrumfield]

What about?

Kevin
I hopefully have been one of the voices of reason here. I have tried to be and I have supported you about the return of the snake. There does though seem to be a pattern in your well worded responses. That is you never or virtually never address directly and difinetly the most important question, that of the shipping. Yes you have claimed that you shipped Delta and I am willing, within limits, give you the benifit of the doubt. Ray has posted an example of an airbill and offered to assist you in doing the same yet you seem to either miss or ignore that portion of his and others posts requesting some form of proof of your shipping method. I personally could care less about the cost of the shipping, the current disposition of the King or the deal between you and Jeremy. My one and only concern, and I am sure many many others, is the shipping method. If you shipped it Delta please allow Ray to assist you in providing the airbill if you didn't please simply admit that you made a mistake and that you WOULD NEVER make that same mistake again. Since the snake apparently arrived alive and without causing any harm or legal problems I hope that my suggestions will make since to you.

Jonathan Brumfield

I totally understand your point of view and I do appreciate the benefit of the doubt. I have emailed with Ray, and I also stated that I will try and figure out the airbill thing. I was not dodging your or anyones questions about it. I have answered although sometimes that gets lost in the other comments/answers I have given. I am telling you directly right now that I HAVE NOT and WILL NOT risk anyone's lives over shipping a snake. I stated before that is not my place to put someone elses life on the line. Furthermore I would not ship a venomous snake through anything but delta, not only because I would not want to hurt an innocent person first and foremost, also I have seen the other threads where people have been accused or proven to have shipped illegally and frankly, I don't need the trouble. Selling venomoids gets enough flak as it is, I wouldn't do something stupid to go out of my way and get negative attention, as proven in this thread, there are too many people all to willing to cause trouble for me anyways, and I don't need to give them any actual wrong doing to make their dreams come true. I hope that answered your question, plus gave a little more insight into where I am coming from.
Thanks
Kevin

 

[The BoidSmith]

Kevin,

There is one question from Ray you did not answer. Do you allow him to post the information he has on your shiiping record? Why not ending this whole thing?

Thanks.

 

[Mustangrde1]

Kevin. I have never tried to make this a venomoid topic. In fact here is a exactly what I stated very early on in this thread.

To Both Parties.

Please post ALL your e-mails if you have them including any that confirms shipment and date it arrived.

Post any pictures of the King Kevin from your end any file photos of it and Jeremy as a hot keeper I know most take great pride in thier animals and have pics when they get it so please scann any you have of it.

As to the Delta / UPS . Please post any proof one way or another. Ray Hunter has stated he will help either party to prove through either of the carriers the info.

This desptie my views on Kevin is not a void issue. It is however a issue on potentially False advertising if the king was not a rodent feeder and an Issue on questionable shipping. couple others of more minor signifigants as well.

Jeremy If you need to return the King Via ups to Kevin I am sure there are a few large reptile dealers in NY that for a fee will ship the animal back to Kevin for you Legally.

You however continue to try and turn it in to one to shed light off the topics of many peoples concerns reguarding your shipping practices!

Your threats and name calling is extremely childish in nature which is no suprise from anyone who reads ANY threads you have ever posted on. I personally love this one by you toward me.

you could have drove here by now and got your ass beat by me and ended it all,

Now answer this question YES or NO without any other jiberish from you a single post WITH EITHER YES or NO and nothing else.

Will you allow Ray Hunter to Post the Information he obtained from Delta reguarding you.

 

[ElapsMan]

QUESTION OF THE HOUR

Will you allow Ray Hunter to Post the Information he obtained from Delta reguarding you.

I wait with bated breath to hear him dance his way out of this one. Scott, is it legal to make threats online? While it is comical, it still is a threat. What's he gonna do, slap you with his burger spatchula? Or will he chase you with his sidewalk sharpened girl scout knife that he uses to hack up snakes?

Kevin, Hold your baby insults, and topic evasion for another post, and just type "YES" or "NO"

Do you authorize Ray to post the Delta printout?

 

[oreganus]

actually....

I don't care how much you flame, because I am going to have to say a BIG "no". I know I am going to get flames for that, but I don't feel it is anyone's business who I deal with, plain an simple, I don't mind posting the airbill that was for the king, but I don't feel it is fair to bring many many people into this little pissing contest just because a couple of "forum whores" such as Scott, want me to. I hope everyone understands this. Scott will try and convince everyone that he is "just worried about the shipping issue" , but if you read his several other posts about venomoids on this thread and other threads, you will get an idea of why he is on this thread. I hope every rational person that is reading this forum can understand my hesitation in showing every person that I deal with, why should I give up time and customers for one false accusation that one person spread because he didn't get his way? Like it or not, I won't do that, so Jerry and Scott, feel free to post 8 more pages of your unintelligent rantings.
Kevin

 

[oreganus]

for you....

Kevin,

There is one question from Ray you did not answer. Do you allow him to post the information he has on your shiiping record? Why not ending this whole thing?

Thanks.

Alvaro,
You have came on here intelligently and posted with class through this entire thread. I believe I answered the question with my last post, but I will be a little more specific for you, so I am not accused of dodging questions by some others on here. The plain and simple truth is that even if I posted the info on here, it won't do any good, because it won't end anything. The only thing it will accomplish is to get a bunch of people that have bought animals from me harassed by the likes of Scott and Jerry, and I am not going to give them anything to rant about, it is nobody's business who I deal with, I hope you understand my point of view on that. Just because you are here for reason of the topic of this thread, doesn't mean that there aren't others on here with completely different intentions.
thanks,
Kevin

 

[Mustangrde1]

Kevin why is it you keep trying to bring up Venomoids? Is it to turn the light of this topic away from you and what appears more and more to be shipping dangerous reptiles through UPS?

I have never once in this thread mentioned anything about venomoids nor have I insulted you or threatened you. I challenge you to prove me wrong and here let me make it simple for you Here are all my post on this thread.

MY FIRST POST TO THIS THREAD -PAGE 14.

One last question Kevin. If and when the IRS audits you how are you going to provide them proof of these 70$ charges for shipping if you do not have the saved airway bills for Delta?

So again where is your documented proof that as a bussiness man you must keep incase of an Audit from the IRS for shipping and bussiness expenditures?

Interesting Reply . Up until now I have not insulted you in any way shape or form. NOR WILL I SINK TO YOUR APPARENT LOW LEVEL OF INSULTING PERSONS.

Unlike you I have kept my word at all times and answered any and every question asked of me on any thread. Can you say the same. um NO would be the answer to the question. Ill answer that one as I am sure you would not or would skirt the question like every other question you have ever been asked.

Though I must admit I cant wait to see how many warning points your nailed with for your last post.

As to all the numbers I posted They are correct , real , factual numbers. Also NO breeder who conducts bussiness within the laws will need to worry about the IRS. So stop skirting the issues and answer the questions with PROOF not your lies.Then again if a honest person was accused of so many potential crimes they sure would provide proof that it is false.


I have been posting all along, though I suspect if you were to stop resorting to school yard tactics of calling people names you may have noticed that.

And Finally How many times on this thread are you going to say your finished. I got a bet going on how many this time?

Now I will ask if your so willing and wanting to put this all behind you why will you not let Ray Hunter post the information?

You yourself asked him for the help and when he was able to obtain the information You now do not want it posted?


WHY?

 

[The BoidSmith]

The only thing it will accomplish is to get a bunch of people that have bought animals from me harassed by the likes of Scott and Jerry, and I am not going to give them anything to rant about, it is nobody's business who I deal with, I hope you understand my point of view on that.

Yes, everyone will agree it would not be appropriate to post the information of all your customers. But at least I assume Ray has a printout with all your shipments through Delta of the last few months. It would be my suggestion that with a black marker he crossed off "all shipments" except the one we are dealing with here. That will protect the privacy of all your customers and the issue would be resolved once and for all.

Thanks.

 

[gila7150]

At this point it doesn't really matter whether Ray prints Kevin's Delta records or not because he already said that Kevin never shipped the animal in question.

I never heard back from Kevin when I e-mailed him last night to help get him the Delta records to prove his claim. Because I do not have authorization, I will not post my findings, but I now have official confirmation that Kevin DID NOT send the King cobra by Delta airlines. A Delta staff member went back 9 months to verify that Kevin has NOT used Delta to ship the King Cobra. Surprised??? Nope, not me. A proven liar, is a liar! Why would we expect anything else from him?

Unless Kevin says that Ray is a liar, it's pretty obvious that he shipped a king cobra through UPS.

So Kevin, is Ray a liar?

 

[schlegelii]

one more day....

I realize that it has been a number of days since I have posted regarding the improper shipping of the king cobra from Kevin Smith. Due to some minor complications I have had some difficulty getting photo graphic evidence to finish this dispute. There are currently a few wheels in motion to acquire the photos and shipping info. I was assure this evening that I will have a few different versions to prove that Kevin, did with out a doubt ship this snake UPS. Please keep you eyes on this thread tomorrow for some picture. I have also had some finger prints lifted from the box by the local police, they will be more then happy to run them if needed.

Jeremy

 

[gila7150]

I have also had some finger prints lifted from the box by the local police, they will be more then happy to run them if needed.

I have no doubt that Kevin shipped the snake through UPS but that is absolutely ridiculous. No police officer in his right mind would waste his time finger printing a box that had been touched by several people in transit as well as yourself.
....and I don't think you'd bring this box to the police since you are as guilty as Kevin for knowingly receiving it.

 

[DThomas]

Re: one more day....

I have also had some finger prints lifted from the box by the local police, they will be more then happy to run them if needed.

Jeremy

I have to chime in on this one since I have relative experience with this. Unless they took the tape, there is no practical way to finger print a cardboard box with few exceptions. What kind of box was used to ship the snake?

No police officer in his right mind would waste his time finger printing a box that had been touched by several people in transit as well as yourself.

Not necessarily. It would not be possible in the field but it could be submitted to a crime lab and they might be able to get some lifts off of it. But it would be time consuming and involve a few specialized processes. And granted, Kevin's prints on it would not positively conclude he shipped it. It would prove he had atleast touched the box, thus giving more credibility to the accusation that it was used to ship the cobra.

Jeremy...

IPlease keep you eyes on this thread tomorrow for some picture.
Jeremy

... I strongly suggest that you post those pictures without delay. If you believe you have reason enough to post a complaint about Kevin on a public forum, you need to manifest some evidence for your credibility's sake. Otherwise, you have done Kevin and the entire herp community a grave disservice.

Funny stuff....

Can this thread possibly get a little more rediculous?? At this point Jeremy can take the peanuts out of my **** while he is eating it for all I care. I notice he is kind enough to show up to make false and crazy threats, false accusations, but he still has not explained trying to rip me off or if he still has the king alive or dead, that last question has been asked by several people on this thread, not just me. We would all have a picture in 12 hours about 4 days and 46 pages ago, haven't gotten it yet. Two or three basic questions were asked 46 pages ago also, still have yet to be answered. Once again, how long does it take to fabricate evidence to back up your false accusations?? Just curious, I am sure there are more people on this thread wondering the same thing.

Re: for you....

Alvaro,
You have came on here intelligently and posted with class through this entire thread. I believe I answered the question with my last post, but I will be a little more specific for you, so I am not accused of dodging questions by some others on here. The plain and simple truth is that even if I posted the info on here, it won't do any good, because it won't end anything. The only thing it will accomplish is to get a bunch of people that have bought animals from me harassed by the likes of Scott and Jerry, and I am not going to give them anything to rant about, it is nobody's business who I deal with, I hope you understand my point of view on that. Just because you are here for reason of the topic of this thread, doesn't mean that there aren't others on here with completely different intentions.
thanks,
Kevin

kevin, the point here and now is NOT who you have done business with but HOW you sent ONE particular cobra to ONE particular person ONE time.

At the moment I don't care that you do voids. At the moment I don't care if you rival guys like Rich in the number of animals you sell.

At the moment all I'd like to see is the proof YOU said YOU had. Show a copy of the airbill. Just this one.

JUST THE AIRBILL NUMBER.

One would think that YOU of all people would know the EXACT answer to that question kevin.

Where IS that airbill number that YOU said YOU would post about 40 pages ago?
