    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.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    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 MEL KRUGER - CROOK

What a shame. I am so very glad that this transaction is on the record. Mel Kruger your behaviour represents everything that is wrong with this hobby man. I mean, why would someone pondering joining our community want get involved knowing that reptile enthusiasts treat each other this way? Congratulations on your "victory" Kruger.

This is absurd and, frankly, more than a bit disgusting to me.

That Nick is an understatement of epic proportions!

I truly believe in karma and when Krugers boat comes in he will be up to his neck in it!

Words like criminal and thief really do not even start to come close and do justice for his actions
 
W.W.G.S.

:bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep: you all speak of karma that's all good I'll deal with karma if that's what is in store for me but you all pass judgement so guess who you have to deal with! :bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep:
 
Sorry Alex
Looks like this is where Kruger has left you
and no paddle in sight.....

Kruger you are delusional. You were given hundreds of opportunities to post your side with proof and you never did. Alex posted tons of proof. From everything we have seen there is no doubt that you are a greedy crook and all around bad guy. It's up to you to change people's view of you. Post your proof. I doubt you have any but if you say you've been wrongly judged prove it. Put your big boy panties on and fix things and make Alex whole. I know it's ultimately up to Alex what he accepts to complete this deal but if you send him a $200 gun for thousands of $ worth of snakes you will still in my eyes and many others I'm sure, be a greedy bad guy.

:iagree: unfortunately I can't think of any words to describe his actions that won't earn me an infraction lol
 
To start this comment, I'm a gecko person. I don't deal with snakes right now, and if I did, I wouldn't personally go for this species. I know neither party, have never spoken to them, had no basis for reputation before reading this thread.

Simply put, I see a man (Alex) who made an initial mistake in not packaging one snake (which he has openly admitted to), was prepared to correct it, but halted when he felt something was off which he has every right to do. He also openly admitted he made a mistake in not checking gun restrictions. On this thread he has made multiple offers that sounded reasonable to me to complete the transaction, apparently taking more and more of a hit against him. On the side of Mel Kruger, what I saw not so much from the original transaction but his comments on here, is that he has made no attempts to come to a middle ground, and in fact piled on to any offer that was made with boarding fees and paying for food. That's not how negotiations work... Instead of getting closer to a middle ground, Mel appears to be pulling to an area that is much further in his favor. I understand Alex not wanting to cooperate on some of these counter offers as they are less in his favor than the offers before.

This is simply my $0.02 on the matter after reading through everything.
 
Drama queens

I find it very funny how you can do a search on all of you and you all follow each other n all of you talk smack against other people and you all probably have never even done business or anything with the people that you are harassing just like what you did to me u all follow each other just like a bunch of drama queens that which you people live for is drama . Like a bunch of flies hovering around the boi
 
Seriously Mr. Kruger, grow up, stop trying to deflect the attention away from yourself and pay Alex what you owe him. If you weren't a greedy theif then none of us would be here commenting. I have a few ideas for Alex on how he can go forward but I'm not going to post them here. They won't be as effective if you know what he has up his sleeve! Is it really that hard to put your big boy panties on and do the right thing? I know being a theif and a liar is much easier but come on real men do what's right not what's easy.

You realise there has been over 21000 views of this thread?
That,s a lot of people you are so happy to display your ignorance and greed to.
Furthermore your command of the English language is dreadfull (maybe irrelevant to this topic).
All you have truly shown anybody here so far is your complete and utter disdain for any morals of normal civilised society ( I realise that is very open to each and own interpretation) and instead displayed all the base actions of a common criminal.
A family run business? Do your family actually know how you like to do business?
Truly deplorable from start to finish.
Just be happy Kruger that when anybody searchs your "family run business" this BOI will come up loud and proud!
 
ALL GOOD

:shrug01: I'm all good with my life I have plenty of people to back me up believe me I am not worried about the BOI people I know people that read this and people that I meet they will all have to make up their mind I do plenty of business then now and in the future so if this is how you need to spend your life is to comment on the way that I spell or write that's all good you all need to get a life. :shrug01: p.S my last thoughts to ALL of you all:bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep::bleep:
 
WOW, so all these so called people agree that it's ok for you to steal the OP's snakes ??

you've turned this deal into a complete nightmare, so tell us Freddy (aka MEL) how keeping the snakes that you agreed on a trade for is not stealing them ?? did you try for just one second placing yourself in the OP's shoes on how you would feel if you had sent the guns first and he did the same and not send a single snake ??

you refuse to respect your end to all proposed counter deals that were all in your favor..
in your mind you just say, OH well i'm keeping them and that's how it is..

-you could send that one gun that he was happy to get against the 11 sankes

-you could send him 500$ like he mentioned somewhere

-you could send them all back and keep the big one you want, her alone will more than compensate your so-called feeding

-you could send the two guns agreed for in the opriginal deal and he could then send that last snake, but no way in hell would anyone trust you by sending it first seeing how much of an ### you've been.

but instead you decide to steal his snakes, and that's ok in your mind and the so called people who support you.. you must be surounded by crooks , because no way in hell would any honest person agree to what you have done. it would be interesting to see these so called people show up here and defend this situation.
their arguments in your favor on how keeping snakes without respecting any deals to make this right, to just right out keep/steal them would be intrersting indeed..

I hope the info in this post gets plastered all over other forums, local craigs list, shows and word to mouth, maybe then you will see how this will effect you in time.

right now when searching for info about you. typing kruger's critters MEL KRUGER brings up this post as #1 on google !!! it's a good start for the end.
 
It's amazing how someone can convince themselves that there is a gang of co-conspirators working against them. Is it so hard to accept that you just may be wrong? You say that we hover on the BOI looking for folks to attack Kruger? This is the FIRST time I have posted on a thread here mire than once. I suppose it makes you feel better to disqualify anyone that doesn't agree with your tactics. To the people that may do business with this creep down the road, please remember how he treated his client in this arrangement. Consider that if ANYTHING goes wrong you may be treated in the same manner.
 
So I see he is posting my snakes again. No also noticed he is only offering a pellet gun for trade. More than likely, he traded the other guns already. But how's this Mel...ill accept the pellet gun for the trade.

I'll ask you on here since you are not responding to my texts.

The BronX BoA

Alex, you're the kind of person scammers like Mel love to find.:(
 
At this point just pay the stupid boarding, and shipping to have your snakes sent back to you. Learn from this experience and make bank on selling your own animals, then simply buy the guns you want yourself. Why did this have to drag out so much, being so stubborn has only made the situation worse. Sometimes you have to insert foot to mouth and let by gones be by gones.
 
Do not give him another penny. What if you paid his boarding fee then hits you up with a surprise vet bill or some type of exorbitant packing fee? File a complaint with the NYPD and the Arizona police then get yourself a good lawyer that specializes in online fraud. Sure it's going to cost you more money but what else can you do, he's playing you and is still trying to play you some more.
