• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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 Paul Kurnava is at it again buyers beware

The last three contacts from him have been stating that the UPS tracking record says it is has been delivered and received by Ryan Carver. It hasnt. They havent been here to deliver anything. I have asked him to just provide proof from the ups website officially saying that I received the package, and then we can look at ups more. I have not heard back from him at all, nor with any proof from ups stating such a thing
 
Bec areful! I don't know if I'm reading wrong, but the way he answered your dispute saying you collected in person. Sounds to me like he is trying to say you went and picked it up from him. As he made no reference to UPS in his reply to the dispute. :shrug01:
 
True. I gave him my address to be delivered to, and her verified that he received the address and will ship to it. As soon as I freakin figure out how to post my emails properly, I will.
His username here (now at least) is thiskidkillz

That is correct - his response is that Ryan picked the item up in person.
 
Which is untrue. Everybody will see plain as day, he asks where he needs to ship her too, I gave my address and he said he received the address and will ship her.
 
Here is his reply (not sure what the August 9th statement really means):

From Seller - James McDermott

8/14/2012 11:46 PDT

the item was picked up by the buyer

From Seller - James McDermott

8/14/2012 11:51 PDT

on august 9th the buyer (ryan carver) picked up the item in person.

Interesting..so you drove close to 2000 miles to pick up the snake on the 9th, and then sent payment for it, via PayPal, on the 12th. Makes perfect sense to me. :ack2: You're obviously dealing with a criminal mastermind here. Be sure to provide PayPal with the email where he claims to have sent the snake and gives you a tracking number.
 
Ryan, in your response - make sure you inform PayPal that the seller gave you a name that doesn't match the one on the PayPal account, and provide them with the relevant emails (try to sort it out, so it isn't as jumbled).
 
Good call. That is in the first part of the emails, is that james mcdemont (spelling) guy is this pauls business partner of sorts and that james paypal account is the one that is used for the "business"
 
For the record, on a few occasions, I have sent money to a different person's paypal and all was fine. So, I didnt think much of it at first, until I saw this and had already sent the money.
 
I noticed on the profile page for "thiskiddkillz" that someone had expressed interest in one of his ads via a visitor message. Someone who is a paid member might want to go into his ads and post a warning link to this thread.
 
I added a visitor message a short time ago - didn't ad a link, because it wasn't easily managed at the time.
 
Hes using a new PayPal Account, And the fact hes responding is that the money he TRIED to withdraw to the bank, has been STOPPED and reversed.

I know those of us that use paypal have the Debit Card with them for instant withdraw at ATM. But I know for a fact he dont, since its tied to ONE verified bank account and his SSN. They will not Keep issuing them to every account thats opened.

SO he will reply and like his butt off to make it like your scamming him. Just provide the emails in the claim so they can see
