    Here's the way I see it. As of this moment, you have seven total posts in this forum. In order, they are:
    • 3x in your 14 lot of pieds "For Sale" post - 1x original, 1x sold, 1 still available - all within just over 24 hours of each other
    • 1x in your 3 lot of anacondas "For Sale" post
    • 4x in this "Bad Businessman" post (with no actual information)

    It's not that much of a stretch to associate someone unloading a bunch of snakes cheaply and that same someone complaining about a guy selling sick/dead/dying animals without any proof/details.

    As Deb eluded to, though, this is not the BOI (nor should it be). How you choose to provide clarity regarding any/all of the above is completely up to you.

    Also more activity in a community can really help your credibility than just coming here to sell your animals.
    I am interested in your shipping methods on an animal you have listed.

    I understand what yall mean lol. This happened last year. But I was hoping someone knew this guy because he disappeared after the transaction.

    Well I made my feeble attempt to see if anyone knew of him. Oh well.

    Best bet would be also post up the full transaction or questions related to said individual on the BOI section of Faunaclassifieds.com or Kingsnake.com. Might run into someone who knows him there or possibly try Facebook. Regardless though, like others have said, you have to post the full transaction. Just shouting "X sells bad snakes!" is a pretty general statement that's needs to be backed up or validated. Regardless, sorry you had a bad dealing on getting an animal. That's why I do my homework and triple check it before I throw cash on any animal.

    It seems a bit late now, but I can't stress enough the need to research not only the animal, but the source of the animal.

    Sorry youve had had a bad experience.

    Hope things get a bit more positive for you.

    I guess now I know who people need to be aware of.

    Funny thing is I tried for a bit to find this "Kevin Smith" since I'm also involved with the retic and BP worlds, if only to get his side of the story (assuming there even is one), and came up empty. So now I'm wondering if he even exists.

    it might have just been a distraction. Reinz calls it the ol' Kansas City Shuffle!
