Marie says (11:14 AM):
i want oldies
Jo Ann says (11:15 AM):
I do, too. I wish I had not given so many away now. But, there's always more.
Marie says (11:15 AM):
people wont sell them
Marie says (11:15 AM):
I have offered up to 50mil for one chin and was told no
Marie says (11:15 AM):
and we cant pm people to ask anymore
Jo Ann says (11:17 AM):
We were never suppose to pm somone about them ... unless they were being
discussed in the shout box or on the forum.
Marie says (11:17 AM):
**jaac said different
Marie says (11:17 AM):
she doesnt care
Jo Ann says (11:19 AM):
That's what I had been told ... had Iknown better, I would have probably been able to
get some a while back. As I understood it ... your account would be frozen
if you did ... so I didn't.
Marie says (11:19 AM):
yeah
Jo Ann says (11:19 AM):
I guess what is fair for some is not always fair for others. Some did it and
nothing was done about it.
Marie says (11:20 AM):
i got reprimanded even after having permission
Jo Ann says (11:21 AM):
I just did not do it at all ... when it is posted I figure it is the same for
everyone.
Marie says (11:21 AM):
yep
Jo Ann says (11:22 AM):
Like you said ... you got reprimanded ... knowing my luck, I would have gotten
frozen ... there were others that did. I just don't like double standards.
Marie says (11:23 AM):
yeah

| A few more candid comments made by this, now moderator ... She should, in my opinion, be setting an example for the kids ... (She is an adult, a parent and a grandparent.) Marie says (10:44 AM): i want one certain oldie and noone will get rid of it Jo Ann says (10:44 AM): Which one is that? Marie says (10:45 AM): dec 20 has one Marie says (10:45 AM): she wont get off it for noting Marie says (10:45 AM): #848 Marie says (10:45 AM): i have three of the green pants guys now ) Marie says (10:59 AM): I was so disgusted Marie says (10:59 AM): coco was suppoed to be helping me buy a oldie Marie says (10:59 AM): she bought it Marie says (11:02 AM): and someone lying isnt either Jo Ann says (11:04 AM): True. Who lied to you? Marie says (11:04 AM): i feel lied to Marie says (11:05 AM): coco said she was trying to help me get dec 20 to sell me a oldie Marie says (11:05 AM): I left to go see james came back and she had bought it Marie says (11:05 AM): I felt deceived ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Another time: Marie says (2:09 PM): i was told so much last night Jo Ann says (2:10 PM): What else were you told? Marie says (2:10 PM): that i am trying to buy my way into vchins Jo Ann says (2:11 PM): Who told you that? Marie says (2:11 PM): two different people Marie says (2:11 PM): that i am like kprien i try to buy my way in ***Marie says (2:19 PM): i have 150 to 154 ageless jo Jo Ann says (2:20 PM): I had no idea you have that many ... I don't go snooping in other people's profiles ... it only causes problems. Marie says (3:48 PM) this has happened two times to me jaq knows about the other {Because she had stated such a large number of ageless chins, I thought she was just kidding ... so I checked ... she was not.} Between her account and her daughters account there was 168 ageless chins. Ageless chins went for 3 for $10 at one time, then 4 for $10 later. Using the least expensive price ~~~ 168 divided by 4 = 42 X $10 = $420 These 168 ageless chins, do NOT account for the ageless chins she gave away as gifts. She also has several "custom chins" @ $3.50 each. No wonder some people might think she is 'buying her way in'! Could this also be the reason she her account was not frozen when she sent private messages asking for oldies and other rare chins that were now to old to breed??? With, according to her, the owners full knowledge and blessing. A few other examples: Jo Ann says (4:03 PM): I'm in the process of reducing it to about 200 chins or less ... I had passed the 1,000 mark. Marie says (4:03 PM): i know you did Marie says (4:03 PM): lol 1003 Marie says (4:03 PM): i counted LOL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Marie says: those admins are p*****g me off Marie says: im ging to talk to jaq Marie says: i think they are overstepping their boundries way too much Jo Ann says: By doing what? Marie says: they jsut do things that they dont need to do Marie says: i have her on msn right now ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here is a conversation in reference to 3 oldies Marie purchased from an 8-year-old child that had no idea what they were worth ... but she did : Marie says (12:35 PM): i asked him how much for certain ones he gave me a price Marie says (12:35 PM): I apid Marie says (12:36 PM): i paid it ... Marie says (12:37 PM): i didnt take advantage of him I paid him what he asked ... Jo Ann says (12:38 PM): I know ... he just has no idea ... he's 8 years old and in the 2nd grade, but very smart for his age ... but knows nothing about the value of things. Marie says (12:39 PM): well still joann e named the price Marie says (12:39 PM): I paid what he asked me to paty Marie says (12:39 PM): and then I sent him another 100000 ______________________________________________________________________________________ THIS IS PROOF SHE SENT HIM A PM, knowing it is against the rules! Read from the BOTTOM message UP --------------------------- From: Jacob Date: 03/08/08 Message I will sell them for $50000 Original Message --------------------------- From: sassy Date: 03/08/08 Message I would be interested in ID numbers 583 1038 and 2716 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Marie says (12:40 PM): there is the message Jo Ann says (12:41 PM): Marie, I believe you ... I have never questioned the amount he ask for or what you paid him for it. Marie says (12:41 PM): well he got more then he asked ... Marie says (12:44 PM): i didnt rip him off Marie says (12:44 PM): the kid isnt going to understand why i sent him 100000 more dollars ... Marie says (12:48 PM): its the fact joann Marie says (12:48 PM): i didnt take advantage of him ............................................................................................................................................... Part of the same conversation where this child had put out of date regular chinchillas in his store to sell them ............................................................................................................................................... Marie says (12:51 PM): thing is those chins are *worthless except to the OSB {*referring to out of date reg.chins} Marie says (12:51 PM): he has them set igher then he sold to me Jo Ann says (12:52 PM): Only to someone who wants to make them ageless or just collect them. Yes, he is asking more ... you paid that for old ones, so he figures new ones are worth more. Marie says (12:52 PM): yeah Jo Ann says (12:53 PM): Those are all out of date also. Marie says (12:53 PM): yep Jo Ann says (12:53 PM): Like I said ... he has no idea of the value. Marie says (12:54 PM): he really shouldnt be on the site at 2nd grade without jamie right there Jo Ann says (12:55 PM): Jamie is usually right with him when he is on line ... she is out of town and he is at his grandmother's house. Marie says (12:55 PM): oh ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *This $50,000 for 3 oldies, was about 1/10 of what they were EACH worth. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When I reported this to the owner, Ms. Rothermel, she said ... "LOL what can I do?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| If this had been a child I had reported ... or a member that was not putting any money into the site ... Do YOU think this is what her answer would have been to me? ~~~ Much More to Come ~~~ |
