I nearly spent £2k with him a month ago but didn't after reading up. Seems I was lucky.

I'm at a loss as to what he's supposed to have done. I got an female ETB off him a couple of months ago, had no problems with her at all. Not being snobby, but his house was nothing to shout about and I could see no evidence of a "luxury lifestyle" that he speaks of

What's he done?

If he was doing so well then why cut his own throat with a message like that.
Seems like he has problems.
I don't know him but am pleased I've had nothing to do with him.
IS there any chance he's scammed people by supplying animals which are wrongly labeled, so he could scam people that way ?
It's a very sad situation, whatever is going on.

You'd have to ask him Hes the one bragging about doing it... no one has publically accused him of it.

You can triple the price of an animal if you claim it is "het" something and make up the paperwork, for an example. There is no proof until 3 years later when someone breeds it, and even then, it can take 2-3 years of failure in a row to actually prove an animal is not the het it was bought as. Not saying this is something this individual has done, just giving an example of how you can scam people whilst appearing above board

As for conning people well ill pass on that i aint got a clue lol
Will have to wait till Diablo gets back to find out whats going on
I know a few people have had issues with him and the way he labels his retics (btw what i know about retics i can write on a stamp)
But not sure how he has conned people

Would a mod be able to pm me the full message?
