Hate to hijack this thread but I really wish the ADMIN would consider a MINIMUM NUMBER OF POSTS RULE prior to allowing someone to post in the for sale section of this forum.

A good number to start with? 500. Even better? 1,000 This would EASILY stop this from happening so easily. Sounds like this DIRTBAG almost ripped off a few of my friends... and even worse, he almost ripped ME off!!!

I am so upset I am shaking... I even pulled my old camera out and was about to take picutres of it to send to him!
I tried giving people a heads up that this dude seemed shady, based primarily on a gut feeling that I have developed during my 20+ years of experience with dealing with people in the herp biz. I am just amazed that people were willing to discard my intuition that something wasn't right with LAW and instead they came down hard on me for trying to look out for others. Yes, I called him a name that was against the rules but it turns out my gut instinct was dead on. The thing that bothers me the most is that not only did people not get that I was only trying to look out for them, but they totally disregarded my warning and were willing to set themselves up as potential victims of this person whom had no history with the board.

I hope this thread serves as an example that sometimes trust does need to be earned and that gut instincts can be just as valuable as hard facts.
