One more bashing fauna

Anonymous third-party quotes don't fly around here. If you're going to post someone else's words, you have to name them or face infraction points.

I'm sorry

 

[Sugarhedgie]

All I have to say is WOW.....

Now what...,

I got a notification from PayPal.
Here it is.

Is this really their solution?


I haven't spoken to ty or the IRCF.
they may be feeling a little heat under their butts. But this is in NO Way a solution to this problem. I didn't cash their check and knowing that now they just send it to my PayPal???

Now that is just at the very least unethical. Trying to force a certain preferred settlement onto an unwilling party... I know that a judge won't look well on that.

Agree
I didn't cash the 400 check they sent me and they now try and pull this. I'm sorry but I have felt bad for the IRCF getting dragged into this but basically ty acted as their agent by holding the raffle.
And as far as my research shows that is illegal.
The IRCF pulled the tickets
And basically told me tough luck this is between you (me ) and ty.

After this..,,,I don't feel bad anymore !!
NO I'm not gonna be forced to accept a rediculous settlement. This is not an acceptable settlement

 

[Sugarhedgie]

I refunded their money. Right or wrong I don't know. I will be talking to an attorney about this tomorrow.

 

[Sugarhedgie]

Here is my refund

 

[nickolasanastasiou]

I'm sorry

If you were sorry, you would not have done it after you had been warned about that rule before.

In regard to the most vocal of those who had bad things to say about this site, you just have to consider the source. Mike Matson standing up in support of Ty Park is just comical.

Oh, doesn't that say it all! I didn't think to look at the names, glad you pointed that out. If that's the kind of people Ty counts as supporters and friends, that says a lot about Ty.

 

[nickolasanastasiou]

I consider that attempt to force settlement by the IRCF without acceptance by the OP to be an underhanded move given the nature of the ongoing dispute. Cleverness points granted for being somewhat sly, but that does not lend itself to trusting their motives or ethics here. Not cool and very obvious.

I agree - it makes them look very shady! I'm not sure how legal that even is for them to just paypal like that when there is a dispute in the courts. I've been keeping kind of a neutral view of them, but this is pretty sketchy behavior that leads to questions about how legitimate their actions in other areas are.

That's why I sent it right back to them. Having a lawyer draft up a letter to them (the IRCF ) this week
They can't have raffles and have ty acting as their agent, then telling me that it's between ty and I when I asked them for their help.

 

[Sugarhedgie]

Another one says "Who produced the animal is irrelevant"
I bet if he/they won the raffle and ty did what he did. They would not be happy either. Unless they just don't care where their animals come from.


Smh

well, it would have been nice to reply toTy and have a conversation but once he replied back with his only argument that he asked twice for her address, he blocked me, and i think he even changed the setting so only friends may respond !!! nice way to limit the information.. i was going to reply using another family members account but comments are blocked for non friends it seems..

one question for you Michelle, did you get a tax receipt for your 400$ contribution to that non profit organisation ?? reason I ask (where i wanted to go in his post) is that each person who purchased a ticket should be getting one.. not the promoter.. if Ty is racking all the $$ and getting the tax receipt that is illigal !! unless in the USA things are so very different . he donated a reptile for the cause.. the most he can get would be if he sold it to them to raffle off.. they both could get audited by the IRS and they would have a filed trip with this.. there s a reason why rules exist for these things and it s to prevent tax evasions with this kind of raffle..

an ex: of this here, CHEO childrens hospital, they have a raffle/lotterie for a million $$ home and sell 100$ tickets, each buyer gets the tax receipt , the contractor that builds the home donates his time or paid to build the home at a lower cost..

Ty s situation, the most he could claim would be the value of that tegu as a deduction, but not if he donated it, if he claims the total of 14000$ in tax receipts for himself, he s steeling them from each participants and pulling an illegal tax scam by gaining from a lesser value !!

just asking to see if this is the case or if you indeed get a tax receipt ??

It's kind of funny how Ty says everybody else doesn't understand or is lying when he keeps contradicting himself. In the current Facebook thread he says he was going to send the op a blue T- tegu while on here he says he was going to send a purple T+ tegu. The way he goes back and forth it's pretty easy to understand why the op wanted questions answered before he shipped her anything.

I decided also that I would send her the tegu that I produced (T+ albino) since her contention was that she wanted one that I produced and not by someone else, but I didn't communicate that with her to the end because I wanted to see what kind of person she was and she was greedy to the end. I ask for her address twice so that I could ship her the tegu but she refused each time. After the second refusal, I decided to auction off the tegu I was going to ship her to raise more money for IRCF, which we did to the tune of more than $5000.

I never got a tax receipt

that is very interesting, maybe someone with knowledge about how that works in the USA could come forward.

but if they are a legit and registered non profit organisation, donations are subject to tax receipts for your deductions, your are the one that donated after all !!! for each individual that gets a 100$ receipt doesn't change much on the big plan.. but when one person collects them all for his purpose, it makes a huge difference for him and he saves thousands in taxes rich get rich but on all of your backs.

so if Ty is taking the peoples donations and then claiming that he has donated 14000$+ to IRCF and HE gets the tax receipts for his deductions ??? now that is way more shady and would raise the curtains on why he's always claiming to donate so much.. all tax deductible. problem with this , is that he's not the one donating all the $$$ he simply donated the animal..

I'm in Canada so it might be different for you guys, but it would make sense why a rich guy donates so much, it's legal if he donates his $$ but he's donating all of you $$ in his name. OHH I get he donates the animal and it has a value, so unless IRCF paid him that vale and gave him a receipt for it !!! otherwise if he donated it, it's considered a gift. In the end that animal was produced by him and really was free and doesn't cost him anything.
this could cause him quite the headaches if the Government starts to investigate, all public info too, he keeps plastering all this on the web

I won't be responding to any more comments here for now but will post updates as they come

I sit on the board of a 501c3 in the US. We run a lot of money through our books each year. People who donate online through our web site are sent a tax receipt via email. Michele should go back through her emails from the time that she donated to see if she received anything.

From what I read here, raffle participants did not give money to Ty, they donated directly to the IRCF for their tickets. This is why the IRCF can't claim that they had nothing to do with the raffle, and point to Ty to fix any problems.
