Watch Out For Corey Kingsbury Of Kingsbury Exotics!!!

Corey drove over 2 hours with his wife and kids to come here. He left his kids sleeping outside in his van in the rain for close to 2 hours while he and his wife Thelma were here dealing with us.

Corey came and hand picked $1170 in animals for his "business". We let him take the animals on consignment with the understanding that he would pay us as he sold things and them some every week. He has since sold some of the animals to pet stores, kept some for himself, and traded some to friends. It has been well over a month, and after numerous unaswered phone calls and excuses of why he couldn't return them nor our emails we find out that Corey told another business he was going to screw us over. We recevied a phone call from Brandon of Twinstate Reptiles (the company Corey told he got all this stuff and didn't intend to pay us) and learn to find out Corey owes this company money and animals also.

We finally hear from Corey after calling him and explaining that we are willing to drive to Vermont to come pick up the animals and get the money for animals he sold. He told us he would ship. After a week and a half nothing shows up. We again repeatedly called and sent tons of emails that once again went unanswered. We left a message for Corey explaining we would be in Vermont and wanted to come pick up the animals, but then he has his wife Thelma send us an email with a tracking number. We get the box finally, supposedly containg the animals he had left that he didn't sell or trade, and some other animals (6' green iguana, 6' green tree boa, eastern milksnake and one redtail) to offset the cash he owed.

Well once the box is opened, not only did he NOT send those animals to make up the difference, BUT he didn't include all the animals he said he didn't sell, OR A CHECK!!! He right now has an outstanding balance with us of $451 (which is including the 14 baby turtles we purchased from him). Plus, we're not even including the shipping we paid to get our own animals back. He must have received the letter from our attorney, which is why he posted negatively about us. I'm sure there be some great story he'll come up with here to explain all of this, as he's had a bad rap on the BOI as well. We did the right thing by Corey to help him out with his inventory, and got ripped off, and here he is trying to make himself look good, so when this all comes out in the open, he's not such a bad guy. Yeah right.

I have notifited our wholesalers, breeders, friends and everyone else to watch out for Corey, unless he pays cash up front. And I'm sure Brandon will be happy to some on and explain his situation with Corey.

WATCH OUT FOR THIS GUY! UNLESS HE'S PAYING CASH HE'S BIG TROUBLE!

this is getting old

AUTHOR: CoreyK - (United States of America)

POSTED: Wednesday, June 01, 2011

I'm tired of hearing about this post. I have nothing to do with this and it's kind of embarassing to hear about it from people I'm trying to get work from.

I also happen to be named Corey Kingsbury. I have absolutely nothing to do with the situation in this post. I'm agitated that this appears when my name is searched. I work with upscale clients and a bunch of them have commented on this post, asking if I have anything to do with it. I laugh and say, 'nope.' But it's getting old. And I wouldn't doubt that I've lost a couple possible clients because of this post.

What's the deal? Some guy gave another guy some inventory and he didn't pay for it. In my humble opinion, if you are any sort of serious businessman, you will not simply GIVE away your inventory to someone and HOPE they eventually pay you for it.

It looks like this has been here for nearly eight years. Isn't it time to take this down? Please? And, come on, it was only $450 bucks!

I know it says posts don't get removed.... But, seriously... what do I have to do to get this post down? In attempting to make bad business practices known, you're hurting my business.

Thank you for your time.

Humbly yours,
Corey Kingsbury
(NOT of Kingsbury Exotics or any other animal trader)

more info

AUTHOR: Corey - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, December 10, 2006

I found the info very easy and didnt even leave this site.

his full name is Sal & allison Tornambene, his carpentry business was Precise Remodeling. A search on these guys will bring these characters to light. That was a great try at damaging my good name and reputation with slander and lies.

I am a good upstanding person and it would take more then one con man to taint my good rep. I would love to get a chance to take these two to the ringers(court) over this. I couldnt afford legal action against them in 2003 too bad though.

Sal &allison Upstate exotic crooks and liars

AUTHOR: Corey - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, December 10, 2006

Sal & allison are both Thieves liars and con men.
A search on Upstate Exotics will open a whole can of worms on these two. They have had numerous businesses in which they ripped people off. Lets see,
carpentry- ripped people off
Exotics- Dealt with illegal wild animals like large jungle cats etc in new york. got caught by local authorities.
Reptile dealers-Turned out to be bigger snakes then the ones they were selling. These two are now devorced, Allison has posted alot trying to seperate herself from sals thievery but she is just as bad. He now lives in florida I believe, I will look up his full name(wont be hard to find) and come back with it.

just now finding this.

AUTHOR: Corey - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Saturday, December 09, 2006

This was a nice scam artist. Want to know the whole deal on this guy? look up upstate exotics. one of his many scam fronts, like the carpentry business he started and ripped off piles of home owners. Nice try Sal. You are a real winner. This intire deal is laid out in great detail on the faunaclassifieds forum where MANY people can vouch for me and have their own horror stories about sal.

I will also give you all my contact info so if anyone has any questions feel free to contact me. 802-584-4147 kingdomcorey@yahoo.com
Its really too bad I didnt get any notification that this complaint was here. thats just not right. I have references a mile long and my "true" reputation speaks for itself.
