Well after waiting and waiting and calling and emailing he has finally either blocked my email addy or changed his email addy. I've made approx 50 unanswered or non-returned phone calls. The original deal was to trade a Het. Axanthic Ball for a pair of his GTP's. He supposedly came to Florida with the snakes while on vacation and we were to meet then. He gave me the name and address of the hotel he was supposedly staying at. The day I was suppose to contact him the hotel had NO reservations under his name or anything similiar. I called every Holiday Inn listed in the phone book left messages at the front desks and he wasn't registered at ANY of them!!! He refuses to return my phone calls or my emails. I was very trustworthy of him and he seemed to be very easy to talk to until we hadn't met in florida!!! Currently I have spent a fortune on cell phone calls trying to get hold of him and lost 2 other possible trade deals on the snake because I believed we had a deal. Just beware of this guy I don't know what his deal is but I believe others should know what happened!!!!!

Did you send him your snake or did he just not follow through with the deal? There are a lot of people that do that. If you haven't dealt with them before, give them 5 days to send the money or go with the next person in line. Don't waste your time with calls or E-mails. 3 calls, 3 E-mails are more than suffiecient. Make it a policy if you have to. It will save you headaches and money in the future. Good luck dude. Ernie
T.B. I usually do just that however...

i believe the last 25 phone call you sent to me over 15-20 days you said if your interested in the trade call me since i didnt call you after leaving numerous messages in the past it looks like you would get the point that im not interested also its not proven that sutherland strain hets are compatible with barkers when it comes to axanthics they are at least 3-4strains and even though you said it was from the sutherlands but it was a barker strain het i was told by many sources to be very careful in dealing with you so please quit whining i dont want the het also im not a bad guy im not perfect but i try

Yes the animal was from the Barker lineage, feel free to contact Collette Sutherland, she used the animal for breeding as I stated in my e-mails. So you've had MANY sources tell you to be careful of dealing with me. Fine list them, or even list one of them!!!! You backed out of the deal no problem, at least make some sort of effort to tell me you were no longer interested. I had numerous other buyers ready to purchase the animal but kept putting them off as you continously insisted you WANTED the snake !!! Quit whinning you say, whatever !!! You may be a great guy for others but you treated me like s**t plain and simple. Just 30 seconds of common courtesy to say hey by the way I'm no longer interested is all it would have taken!!
Good luck with your other deals.
