Dan Scolaro (DTS Herps)
Negative
This is a late one, that I should of written past a year ago, but I was never big on doing feedback, but I realize that it needs to be done so that other people are aware of what they're getting themselves into when dealin with Dan.
The first snake I ever purchased from Dan was a Rufous Beaked Snake(way before the three I have now). It was labeled as captive hatched, which is what I wanted, because I always prefer over wild-caught. When I got the snake in I closely inspected it as I do all snakes I get, and I noticed that i had some bite marks/scars on it. There is no way a snake that is eating pinkies would have scars on it being captive hactched because a pinkie mouse can't bite. This was the first dealing that I had with him and while it was a negative experience, I still received a snake that I had wanted.
My second dealing with him was when I purchased a White-Lip Python from him as it was stated CB as well(which I knew was probably not true), but I wanted one. The snake was in rather poor health and had a serious RI and when I contacted him about this he basically blew me off and was very rude saying that the snake must of gotten sick while in my care(which was bull). I ended up getting it cleared up with a vet visit, but the fact of the matter is that he lies quite often and will not take responsibility when something is wrong. I should of learned my lesson the first time, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt and got burned. I would never buy from him again.

Where to start about Dan? According to him he's never had a bad transaction. All the people who have complained on the BOI about him were trying to scam him. He advertises local wildlife, then goes out and collects them one day and ships them the next, mites, ticks and all. He ships in boxes he gets for free from the grocery store with no styrofoam and just a few pieces of wadded up newspaper for insulation. If you watch his ads, he has some rare high end animals, especially venomous, that collectors should be dying for, but no experienced collector will buy from him because of his reputation. The animals stay up for sale for a very long time. Yet before he was permanently banned from fauna he always laughed off the BOI saying it would never affect his sales. The only people that deal with him are inexperienced people who don't know about the BOI and people who know and only care about his cheap prices.

Yea, I got that after my second transaction. The only reason I did he first with him is because I waned a Rufous Beaked Snake, and I said a year, but I was thinking I was still in 2012, lol. It's been two years. I didn't really do much feedback researching before him, but because of him I always look at feedback now.
-
I actually did a deal with him once just to see for myself what he was like. I didn't want to buy anything expensive, not because I wanted something "disposable" but because I didn't want to reward Dan with too much money. I bought a pair of Florida water snakes from him for $30. It took him 3 weeks to fill the order because he couldn't find a female on his collecting excursions. He collected her one day, sent them to me the next (in an uninsulated, flimsy box as I described before), and they were both covered in mites. Despite treatment they lasted about a month. Didn't get a chance to test his customer service after a complaint because I didn't complain to him, but accusations about him confirmed.

Neil: Not sure I recall any transaction with you or ever selling hatchling rufus beaked snakes, so please provide some evidence. And never had a single report of an animal received with an illness, so please provide proof such as an email of when you received the specimen with the illness and your communications to return it for verification. Tree boa, I do not recall selling anything to you so please provide a date. Something seems strange there with your anger statements? If you demised your snakes and blame me months later? What does that say about yourself? Who are you? What are these wait 3 week statements? Either get it or go to another vendor and I don't collect snakes and sell them. And none of your statements describe the great business I enjoy with my valued customers as seen on the thousands of feedback statements on my web page from highly reputable zoos, institutions and hobby folk (http://www.dtsherpsinc.com/Customer_Feedback.html). Everyone knows that BOI is where folks go to extort dealers so you are wrong about all of your guessing or perhaps show proof of the arrival of an unsatisfactory animal. If you want a styro box, I have them and use them all of the time so maybe you did not pay for one? Otherwise, shipments are with above average AM Shipping containers which never break. Dan

Looks like a well done bragging page. I dont know him nor have I done business with him, but someone THAT dang good has got to be a A+ seller for sure!

dan, you are lying like a sack of crap and a walking scumbag. You are everything that is wrong with this business. Your ethics are absent, your morals suck, you are the neil gubitz of our time. Were you to drop dead right now I don't think anyone would miss you for one single second. As a human you are an absolute failure.
If anyone ever needs an example of how to do things the wrong way every time, YOU are the poster child.
I'm not sure you even know what the truth IS.
-
I have a feeling this thread is going to get ugly. Let's watch the language and don't resort to name-calling. There's a difference between describing someone's actions and calling them names. Let's keep the arguments (however colorful) focused on facts and actions. ;)
-
Wilomn, I do not believe I know you or sold anything to you and your email reads as if you are disturbed or drunk? Do you have any verifiable proof such as an email notifying of any issue? Any proof of incorrect ethics or are you pretending to listen to someone who failed to extort and rob me? Our federal government awarded me 5 medals for my ethics, so why are you so quick to pretend to discount them when you perhaps never bought from me or know me and can read thousands of true feedback statements from highly reputable dealers/institutions on my companies web page? What is your motive here as you sound like you need medical attention? What is the motive for you and these two guys to come out of the blue and claim to have issues years ago on animals and no proof of notification and no proof if I tried to remedy something caused at me end? And I don't know neil gibizt either that you mention above. Why are you wondering about if anyone would miss me as that sounds something like two heart-broke folks might say to each other? How old are you may I ask? Dan

Won't work mr. scalero. Your lies are well documented, and have been for many years. You can prattle on all you like, but trust me, you won't pull the wool over anyone's eyes here.
It's pretty easy to tell when you're lying. In person one can see your lips move, online one can see what you've typed.
I stand behind everything I've said about you.
Unlike you, my reputation for telling the truth is pretty good. Best bet for you is just to slink on out of here and never come back.
-
Wilomn, I don't know what you are standing behind nor is that relevant. I asked you who you are and if you are sober and what's your age and other questions and you have dodged to answer and made statements that I lied. Can you show proof of any lie? Of course not. And with no proof, then you sound like you are collaborating with thieves that attempt to rob and extort sellers which does not reflect good on your character. Are you the kid who cooked his pink tongue skink and force fed it a pink rodent against advice and killed it and then tried to extort verses waiting patiently for another? Show proof of a lie. I showed you thousands of reports of true feedback statements from highly reputable institutions and well-known buyer/hobby folk, so at least you can do is provide some proof of your accusations.

That is not proof. Those threads are all failed attempts at extortion from that BOI which never worked to bully sellers. I asked for proof such as a verifiable and unaltered email reporting a dissatisfied animal and proof that they desired to return it to make it salable and my response to such the case. You have not provided any proof because no one ever asked to return a single animal in tens of thousands of sales. Those threads are perhaps folks who harmed their animal and tried to extort for money and lost. Remember, extortion is a crime and if you support extortion, then you are a criminal yourself. Show proof of someone reporting to of received a sick or injured animal and my response to them about remedy? You do not have such proof. I have showed you thousands of verifable reports of feedback from highly reputable dealers and you have not shown proof of a single email of anyone reporting a sick or injured animal. Show proof not some nonsense from some idiot/moron forum who failed to extort cash from me. If you felt bad for the kid who killed his skink, then why did you not get one for him? My interests are to care for animals, and if someone kills a skink by not listening, then what makes you think I would give them another to kill? Check my feedback reports - I give away animals for free all of the time and make hundreds of people happy each month. So what motive would I have to not have a satisfied customer? I asked you to show proof and you showed attempts at extortion which failed . I ask again - are you drunk?
-
Oh, I think I know you now. Aren't you that fellow who paid by now like hundreds of dollars to go onto the BOI to curse at people without even considering both sides of the issues and checking into the seller's guarantee and policy?

It never happened. Some guy killed a skink by force feeding, another guy killed viper boas by cooking with a heat pad, and some others cooked their boa or monitor with a heat lamp. So you call these folks disatisfied customers because their threats at extortion failed on them? I call them criminals for bidding to extort. I would be more than happy to replace any animal that was received imperfect or sick but that never happened. And why would you think I would otherwise not help a fellow herp keeper? What's wrong with you?

And where's YOUR proof? You ask for "proof" over and over again, but never accept anything anyone says or does as legitimate. But you throw out ridiculous sweeping statements like this all the time. Where is YOUR proof that ALL those people who ever made complaints about you are criminals? Where are all those criminal records? Where is the proof that they harmed their own animals? Where is the proof of extortion? Just your word? Just your opinion? That's not proof....
-
Please allow Neil to show proof that he received a wild caught rufus beaked snake verses captive born and I will send him cash today as I don't recall ever selling or having captive hatched specimens? Please allow Tree Boa show proof that he received water snakes with mites and ticks and I will send him cash today. No proof, no cash. Where's their email reporting such things and my email as a response to such an incident? Are you jumping to conclusions again without a reasonable check into all of the details of a transaction? How about telling folks how much money you pay the BOI over the years to curse at people you have no clue about? What is the motive here for two guys to say they bought stuff years ago and show no proof? And some outlandish and erratic kid from the BOI comes here without any proof either and just links to where folks harmed their new pet.
-
Proof is here http://www.dtsherpsinc.com/Customer_Feedback.html I never read a complaint against my sales, just failed attempts to extort. Proof is in the thread of the skink kid who force fed it and killed it. Proof is in the emails where the folks reported to receive great animals and then cooked them and tried to blame someone else. Remember, this is not the BOI nor communism. You have to prove someone is guilty before you hang them. And where's YOUR proof? You ask for "proof" over and over again, but never accept anything anyone says or does as legitimate. But you throw out ridiculous sweeping statements like this all the time.

If I recall correctly, and I'm pretty sure I do, you were proven to have made several of those posts yourself. It's somewhere on Fauna, but there are SO MANY bad guy threads about you that there is no way I'm going to go dig it up.
You're still a liar, mr. scalero, there is no way you can refute that. It's been proven dozens if not hundreds of times. Using YOUR site as your defense, is stupid to the extreme. No one with the brains of a gnat, ie smarter than you, would believe that you would allow ANY much less ALL the displeased people you've stolen money from to post on your pathetic little site.
Tuck tail and run, mr. scalero, you're not welcome here, so say I and other like-minded honest herp keepers. Your lies are not believable, wordy, but lies nonetheless.
-
Judy, Show proof where I was ever liable for any bogus report of any critter and I will send you 100 dollars. Are you liable if you send me a skink and I choke it by force feeding it a rodent or if I cook your beloved viper boa with a heat pad? So why do you say I am liable if someone else does it to an animal I care about?
-
Wilomn: Why would I lie? What motive is there to lie? So what is your point? Show one instance where I lied and you get 100 dollars. Bet you cannot do it. Take the challege. You can even forward the monies to the BOI so they can have you hanging around for another decade to curse at people you never bought from.
-
Wilomn: And you do not recall correctly. If someone ever reported receiving an imperfect or injured/sick critter upon inspection, then I would insist they return it immediately for verification. Sorry friend, but I ship hundreds of boxes each month and never had a complaint and if I did then I fix it immediatly and treat the customer with kindness and give them double their value for the inconvenience. That's why there are tens of thousands of great feedback reports and a dozen reports from folks who failed at their scam.

Now you owe me 100.00. I have proven beyond any shadow of doubt that you are lying.
It's rather amusing that NONE of those stellar reviews are verifiable in any way whatsoever, isn't it? I wonder why anyone who had nothing to hide would do that...
-
Blither about folks trying to scam is not proof of a lie. Like I said, if some kid chokes a skink with a pinky, where did I lie? And the feedback reports are indeed verifiable -simply contact any of the thousands of zoos, institutions, reputable buyer's whos name appears next to their great comment and ask them if that's what they wrote. They encourage me to post their great comments as they do not wish to waste their time where you live (the BOI).
-
And I ask you again, what motive would there be behind lying? Explain why me or anyone for that matter would lie and what is the motive if it obviously would lead to disharmony. We can all gather you do not sell reptiles so have no clue what it's like to move hundreds of animals and satisfy hundreds of people each month. What are your qualifications besides being someone who generates disharmony with resolve to honest people's transactions at the BOI?
-
Let's stick to the facts of this thread mr. liar, er scalero.
YOU have been proven many many times to sell crap. You lie about selling crap. You lie just about every time you make a statement, verbal or written.
I'm done with you now, the proof is there, again, for anyone who wants to see it. There is no way you'll convince people you're a good guy, because, quite simply, you're not. You're one of the number one bad guys in this business. You know it, I know it, thousands of other people know it.
No matter how much you try to deflect this thread, as is your habit when you're busted selling crap, the fact remains that you SELL CRAP then blame the buyer. You always have, doubtless you always will.
Run along mr. scalero, no one is buying what you're selling here, literally and figuratively.

No, this is BP.net, which belongs to me and my partners. We're not a court of law, we're not putting anyone in jail or assessing fines or anything like that. We don't have to prove anything. All I'm doing here is allowing folks to read and form their own opinions. My question still stands, by the way. You didn't prove anything, you just prattled on about how many people claim to be happy. That is far from proof that every single person who's ever had a complaint about your business is a criminal and an animal abuser.

Dan, I wouldn't take your $100 if you offered it right now, not one cent and not a million dollars. I didn't say anything about you or make any claims against you. I have nothing to prove. All I did was ask some questions, which you were brilliantly incapable of answering.
-
Glad that these kind of threads are made. It is very hard to believe that out of the 100's or 1000's of animals DTS has sold and shipped that there has never been one single complaint. I am sorry, but nobody is that perfect. With all the complaints that have been made, the response seems to be the same " liars, and extortion" I am sorry but i don't see how any sane person is going to spend that much time trying to extort someone for an everyday reptile. I could see if you were dealing in albino komono dragons, or something rare and exotic. Your replies on here just reek of denial and shadiness. I don't know you, but just seeing how you conduct yourself makes me never want to do any kind of business with you. Anyways thanks Neil and everyone else for shedding light to others. DTS, why would anyone spend hundreds of dollars to bad mouth you on a forum, especially when you can do it free just about everywhere else?
-
Wilomn: Like I said, show some proof and you win 100 bucks. Do you think all of the major zoo's in this country and in Europe would buy from someone if there's was a shred of proof of your accusations? Look at the names of the highly reputable people that do repeat business with me. Some guy buys a snake and says it arrived great and fails to buy frogs to feed it and that is my fault? How about showing some proof that an animal was received in unsatisfactory condition and my response to the such? I would be more than happy to replace it with something that ups their inconvenience but it's never happened despite I gift free animals to people each week. All you can show is where someone failed with their critter and then tried to extort. Listen friend, all anyone ever sees you doing is trying your best to ruin any responsible resolve to any matter by aggravating any transaction, and you have not matured one bit in the last decade. You must be at least 25 years old by now and you are still a potty mouth who does nothing but try to draw attention to himself by cursing and calling people names and you contribute zero to any issue much less our great hobby. This hobby is filled with loving and caring people who do not appreciate your erratic and uncontrollable and silly findings and their should be a lock on any computer you are allowed access to. You never dig for facts nor verification of any date between a buyer and seller. Do you work for that Rich Z fellow on the BOI who was thrown out of the hobby because no one wanted to buy his diseased corn snakes anymore? Grow up and reach out to help people verses creating arguments and animosity between buyers and sellers or get some medication to control your temper. I think I told you the same thing 10 years ago and you did not listen then either.
-
Since your main tactic in your battle of denial is to post and post and post, never proving anything but what a liar you are, I'll keep posting this bit of information for those who don't want to read all of your crap. I'm not going away danny boy.

And extortion is related to someone threatening to gain something they are not entitled to by trying to embarrassed them on a forum or wasting their time whereas they can achieve their resolve by working with the person verses trying to voice they wish to hurt them. And it does not matter if you believe misinformation or lies or threads where data is not verified as a seller is seeking relationships with folks with a clear mind that won't resort to waste a seller's time with such nonsense. So if you refuse to do business with someone based on not viewing all of the details, then its your loss not theirs as the animal will sell to someone else. Seller's are customers also. As a matter of fact, I am one of the biggest customer's out there and buy thousands of dollars of animals each month. Do I feel it necessary to knock a seller if I see mites? No. I soak the animal and treat it and go on with my life.

Re: Dan Scolaro (DTS Herps)
LOL, I must say, quite heated. DTS must be perfect, and never have issues, and the whole of the herp world is full of liars and extortionists! I wonder why someone would make all this up, over and over.
"Methinks he doth protest too much"
Just ONE question... prove people are extorting you, how many convictions have you won?
If someone has been convicted for extorting you, I'll send you $100, just because:banana:

The BOI is in place so that sellers are protected from problematic buyers, buyers are protected from problematic sellers, and everyone gets to male up their own minds.
In the handful of BOI threads I've made my 2 cents avaliable, not only was the subject of the BOI thread questioned but the poster of the thread was too. I've seen plenty of people have a BOI thread turned around onto themselves because it was bogus. The BOI has a knack for sniffing out false postings which unfortunately didn't happen for you.
So, one of two things happened. Either you're an angel and the BOI has wronged you or the BOI has done it's job and you're the Bill Clinton of the reptile industry. However that implies that at some point you did good things and that at some point you will own up to the accusations against you.

Weinkeg: The proof is in those BOI threads. Someone bought a skink and killed it with force feeding a pinky and tried to extort for cash. Same with a viper boa someone cooked on a heat pad. So the proof is in those threads you are talking about. You try to force something you are not entitled to from someone with threats, and that's extortion regardless if you see it differently. I cannot buy a skink and choke it with a rodent and then threaten someone for another or that would be criminal. But there's forums out there that encourage that sort of crime whether you believe it or not. Some folks even are tricked to pay into such forums. It's a scam is all and the only one laughing is the guy at the end collecting people's money to pay to argue.

Re: Dan Scolaro (DTS Herps)
Kodieh: Well no offense but you seem new to the hobby as that BOI has been a junk site for over a decade where no one is required to provide any verifiable proof and its moderated by a gang of idiots. Much less the administrator has been informed of many methods to improve it all and he continues to this day to allow it to be ran like a freak show. I am no angel either and make my normal share of mistakes and did not vote for clinton. The BOI is filled with moderators that I proved wrong and they retaliate at any opportunity thinking it will hurt my business but all it does is keep away scams and thieves so it works great for me. Much less they cannot buy from me so they are very upset.

Re: Dan Scolaro (DTS Herps)
I've purchased through Dan before and I was pretty satisfied with everything. The service was pretty good. All my emails were responded to in a fast manner and shipping/packaging was outstanding. It sucks to see stuff like this happen. With my past dealings with him, I'll definately be doing more work with him in the future.

Re: Dan Scolaro (DTS Herps)
Kodieh: Own up to what accusations? I tried to give the kid another skink despite he killed it. I tried to give the guy another viper boa despite he burned them. So what are you talking about? If someone killed your skink, would you offer them another for free? Nope. I did. If someone killed your beloved viper boas would you give them 2 more at cost? Nope. I tried but the fellow though it better to extort for cash and it backfired on him.

so, you pressed charges:confusd:
you should also sue for defamation:sabduel:

You keep asking everyone to provide you with proof about these accusations they are making but you have not provided any proof yourself that verifies that everyone here but you is lying. Posting a link to testimonials on YOUR website isn't proof that these accusations are false. You are the one who controls what content goes onto your testimonial page so of course you are only going to put good things on there. In addition to that, you could have easily manufactured some of those testimonials if not all of them and I wouldn't be surprised if you did. You have already posted countless replies to this thread with useless information that is just you repeating yourself so why not stop doing that and take the time to make one post providing proof on your end and then maybe this thread will advance into something constructive.

Re: Dan Scolaro (DTS Herps)
Every single negative post about you on the BOI is made by extortionists? Wonder why you have such an overwhelming number them who are choosing to pick on poor little you and very few on other sellers?
You do protest too much.

Boyer: Think I asked 2 folks to provide proof and yet to see it. What accusations are you mentioning? That someone killed their skink by force feeding? Check the threads if you care. And if you doubt feedback, call those names you recognize and what's there to lie about anyway? And its not useless repetition as its entertaining to spank those BOI folks.
And Wienkeg, why press charges and sue when threads like that help business as they deter thieves and scammers? If someone wishes to believe blither without verified data, then more power to em as long as they take their business somewhere else. Dan

Rabernet, not overwhelming numbers just a dozen out of tens of thousands of sales which is pretty good as avoiding scammer is not easy as you may know. Dan

Did mr. scalero ask you to post here?
I'd like to see proof of this. Emails, including all headers, pictures, anything you have that can verify what you have stated. Short of that, you seem an awfully lot like a shill; another of mr. scalero's tactics at sidestepping his lying thieving ways.

Considering tha DTS HERPS just joined our forum today, and has only posted on this thread, I think it's interesting the controversy that has developed here....
Grabbing popcorn now:cool:

DTS HERPS, how do you feel that you are "Spanking" anyone? Basically all you have done so far is called the majority of people who have accusations against you extortionists. What good is that with no proof. You keep mentioning this story about someone force feeding a skink a pinky. That story may very well be true but that one incident doesn't account for the many accusations against you.
-
Boyer, what other accusations? Some guy burned his boas and another cooked his monitor. And I think some kid killed his emerald as his vet stuck it in the heart with a needed to draw blood. My fault? Hum? If you believe their stories or any story without a complete investigation into facts then so be it. Spanked wilomn of course. Spanked your statements as you have no evidence to back up that the accusations are valid.
-
Boyer, did you view an unaltered email from someone with a valid complaint? Did you view my response to the such? No, because none are out there. And if not, then why are you (for what reason) giving any credit to any accusation? How do you even know someone voicing a complaint bought something from me? Did you check the Better Business Bureau? Validate a tracking number? I have no valid complaints on the better business bureau and if there was a valid complain in thousands of transactions, then why is one not there?
