Pardon me if this has already been brought up, but YOUR criminal record IS PUBLIC INFORMATION. I have NO clue about the process they went through to get it, but I could do a search of your name in EVERY COUNTY in the contry and pull up your charges that have been placed on you AS WELL as the outcome of EACH case.
Fact is Michael, you delay in every way you can in your dealings. What about the guy here in Arizona that waited two MONTHS to get his Tigers het for albino, ended up driving to YOUR house to get them, only to be followed by 4 MONTHS of delays in getting him the super he told you he wanted when he was there.
Folks, before you jump on me for this, since it did not include me, I DO know what I am talking about. He is a VERY good friend of mine and I was made aware of EVERY delay, excuse, whatever that came about. In fact I even went as far as to call Michael one day last summer/early spring and had the individual listen to the whole conversation. I acted like I "heard" stories of the situation, but was interested in buying from him, when in fact the WHOLE conversation was being tape recorded in case it was needed as HARD proof regarding the problems he was having in getting Michael to send the animal. Michael was willing to sell ME the same snake that was already BOUGHT and PAID for by my friend. If anyone is interested, like Bob Clark, he has chosen not to post on this thread. Like Dr. Owens, I was fed up, knew EVERYTHING about the situation, was forwarded emails in regards to this transaction. I was leary in posting anything because I do not want to jeopordize friendships/acuantances I have in the herp community.
You can say it was not the same snake, but if you remember I asked you what you had in your collection, what you had available and I said I was interested in the SAME Super. Yes, you told me that you had some youngins as well, but I told you I did not want those..........so please do not try and pawn it off as other snakes you were talking about.
On another note, before you try and sue for this also. It IS legal in the state of Arizona to tape record a conversation as long as ONE of the parties involved are aware. Bummer for you, in this case there were TWO parties that knew about it.
How can SO MANY people be wrong? people post your name folowed by....."contact me please....", "trying to reach you....", "where is my money...", "where are my animals....", etc. Do you really think this is because you are so popular that people are dying to buy from you? It is more like people are dying to complete deals with you that YOU FAILED to complete.
Lastly, and I ask as nice as I can, I am not looking to be mother f**ked all over the place. I speak ONLY because of the HARD facts I have/have had (emails, recordings) that some of which are still around, but others that have been deleted since they were not sent to me to begin with. The facts that I have saved are that my friend bought 100 PERCENT HET FOR ALBINO TIGERS from Whitefeather and I wanted that on tape. With the history and accusations that have been brought on this guy, I wonder if indeed they are hets. Hopefully for all parties involved, they are.
I appologize if some do not like what I have to say, but what I say ARE FACTS and based on reading emails AND FIRST HAND conversations with Whitefeather, unfortunately he did not know my real motive.
