Can you or someone else give us a translated summary of the news report, please. It would be interesting to hear what he is being charged with, as I notice there are a wide range of different species in the boxes in the photo. Are they all protected under Czech law?
Also for the information of people like me who don't know what he looks like, which person in the photo is Peter Jakubek?
Adam.

The person named in the story is a professional entomologist Freydek-Mistek. Are they the same person? Also, Google Chrome gives you the option to translate a web site in a foreign language.

Ebay or PayPal guarantee a refund. This is not a problem and need not be feared. Otherwise it may be worse. In any case, Petr Jakubek is the real name of the person and he really lives at the address (Czech Republic) that a member of this forum sent me. Sure, theres a refund. However, if you wait too long ebay and paypal burry it and you can no longer access ot, so its forgotten about. Happened to me at least 3 x that i can think of. The seller has said. Oh its on the way. Never arrives. Too much time elapses and youve lost out

I want to share my terrible experience with this man on Ebay: I bought a number of butterflies including 1 M of Oeneis macounii which I only lacked in my collection of Oeneis genus. When I got the parcel there were butterflies I ordered except that Oeneis macounii !, + even not all the same that were pictured for buyers on eBay, some badly repaired and replaced by other samples. I asked why Peter did not send the Oeneis to me and he said he forgot and will send in the second parcel if I buy new sps. I agreed to buy new items on his eBay auctions if he discounts by 10 $ the super-high price of Postage (21$ even inside Europe! + surcharge for ?handling 1$ per item !). After some discussions he agreed and lastly I asked to send the second parcel with my buys to include the O. macounii from the first set. How surprised I was when I opened the second box which did not have the Oeneis I paid for long before! And when I asked Peter to kindly explain why he did not send Oeneis to me in the second parcel, he said that he made instead of it the discount for 10$ for the second parcel postage! And I warned him before the second set of items bids that I will not bid if he does not send me the most wanted Oeneis macouni! To conclude: This guy is unbelievably careless, stubborn, unfair, greedy and self-assured. Beware of him everyone! Don't buy if you do not want to get troubles for your own money. Andrew

Andrew Why don't you file claims through ebay that one item did not arrive and that others don't match the description? Did you send all your emails through the ebay system? Than you have all prove needed to succesfully claim back your money. Marcel

All email concerning Ebay transactions only goes through Ebay, that way they can monitor people, typically trying to circumvent Ebay policy. I would have expected this issue to be resolved through Ebay,and or PayPal. The only way I am aware of that Ebay members can contact each other outside of ebay, would be by mail, or by enclosing contact information in a parcel. They keep a tight rein on their income at Ebay and PayPal.

You should do your research on anything involving Peter Jakubek. He has been a well known butterfly con-artist for many years on the internet. Warn others not to buy anything from him.

Hello, Peter here, I've been fascinated with insects since I was able to walk. One true fact I learned from irrational "insect enthusiasts" is, that no matter what you do and how professional you are, there will always complain, also people who never purchased from me, will complain.
Ken Thorne alias tis, is a profound crook and a dishonest person. He had not had any dealings with me, yet he came with idea to ask everybody stop buying from me, how profoundly crookish is this, and we are dealing with such crooks here in the forum. Forum, that can be read by anyone from anywhere. Now, of course, his insect business is run in Canada, just as mine is, so here you see a competitor, asking everybody to stop buying from me, why is that? He wants everybody to buy insects from him...
thorne is publicly, on the biggest insect related forum in the World, calling out to everybody to stop buying from me... He is an insect dealer. Is that legal? I am his competitor. Will ask the RCMP.
Now back to myself, my business is set up in Canada, I ship from various locations and I always ship what I promised. I will need to step into the forum to put things in order as without my input seems I will soon be crucified by few crook members of this group thereapy forum, who are far from fair and are irrational in their assessments.
I will post full names of these profoundly dishonest forum members and will post facts against fiction related to their continuous efforts in trying at any time put the blame on someone else. Some of these members had never dealt with me EVER, despite posting threads and their "opinion" on myself, based on fake news.
It will be fun to watch your comments to the posted threads and the purpose of the replies will be to calm down the emotions .

Jakubek is profoundly dishonest. If you want to be cheated I encourage you to trade with him. Wills Laurie from Wellington, New Zealand, purchased from me (respectively a Canadian company established in 2000) the following insects. in 2007 Eurytides calliste calliste male for 180Euro, Item was delivered to him in absolute good standing. in 2011 male of Papilio multicaudatus grandiosus for 69.99$, Item was delivered to him in absolute good standing. in 2011 Papilio multicaudatus pusillus male for 25Euro, female of the same for 50Euro, Papilio abderus baroni 600Euro. Items were delivered to him in absolute good standing. in 2001 Eurytides epidaus fenochionis male for 29.99$, Papilio torquatus tolus male for 9.99$, Items were delivered to him in absolute good standing. in 2011 Papilio multicaudatus grandiosus male for 59.99$, Item was delivered to him in absolute good standing. in 2011 Papilio pilumnus male for 19.99$, Item were delivered to him in absolute good standing. in 2011 Papilio abderus typical female form 175Euro, Item were delivered to him in absolute good standing. in 2011 Papilio multicaudatus grandiosus female for 495Euro, Item were delivered to him in absolute good standing. last order in 2011 Papilio palamedes leontis male for 35US$. again, item was delivered to him in absolute good standing. ....now, he claimed in 2011, that the female of Papilio multicaudatus grandiosus was a reason for complaints and based on this one single purchase, he is calling me a profoundly dishonest person. I am about to post the image of the female, which was delivered as shown to wills in New Zealand. wills contacted me later, that the female had apparently repair of a "tail" of its hindwings. I need to find out how to upload images for my post and will all show you the female from dorsal and ventral view, the very female which for nearly a decade won't let wills ease up and just let me breathe. Instead, he continuously lies about myself and posts threads calling me profoundly dishonest person. Based on the facts I provided, do you think it is correct and moral from him to continuously at every single occasion spread negativity regarding myself? I will leave it up to you. The ones knowing me and purchasing thousands of dried insects from my research collection know who I am and how I work. Thanks for reading. from now on I will try to comment if any problems arise.

You should do your research on anything involving Peter Jakubek. He has been a well known butterfly con-artist for many years on the internet. Warn others not to buy anything from him. ken thorne, canadian insect dealer, alias tis. you never bought anything from me, you are asking everybody to stop buying insects from me, you are a profoundly dishonest person. Have you ever dealth with me? no, you did not... What do you mean by calling to others not to buy from me ever? Who gave you the right to advise collectors not to buy from me? will ask RCMP how to proceed. I named Morpho theseus mazatecus in 2008 based on my specimens of Morpho theseus from Mexico, namely from Sierra Mazateca. Jaroslav Fisher, visiting me and seeing the series of these, declared, that these are distinct from my Morpho theseus oaxacensis TOPOTYPES and initiated the further study of it and a later description of the new ssp. mazatecus published in the Gallery of butterflies in 2009. How many taxa did you describe - none. You don't even know the process, you don't even know how to collect butterflies. You just buy and resell, you are dealer, not entomologist. How do you see me being a crook in describing a new ssp? How many ssp. did you describe? I'd be thrilled to learn from you and in the future not to make any mistakes, perhaps you could revise my future work so at least it will be approved by you, although I still don't know who you are, so why don't you tell us your true name ken thorne, since you putting my name into your thread?
