Shooting unwanted animals on a farm is never "hunting". Have you ever hunted a wild area in Tanzania or Zimbabwe? Has anyoen EVER allowed you on the ground without paying 100% of your daily fees? What Mike posted, as him being a well known outfitter, IS the truth. Not your funny crusade against Andrew, or you trying to be an expert on African hunting. | |||

Saeed, Nice try on bullying 470. He has been there and done it, he has plenty of experience. Quit diverting the thread off Baldry and Ibi. They are the problem. As to paying in full ahead of time - I wouldn’t name names either. My relationship with them is not your business or anyone else’s. Right now, I have booked a hunt with an extremely high quality and high character outfitter that I have made no deposit. I went back and checked , I have been in 30+ guided hunts, less t he an half gave I paid all up front. So, you are making a broad statement that does not match my experience. Back to the point - Ibi and Baldry need to pay up! | |||

See both Mark Taylor and Mark Young's posts. You might learn something! And your crusade against Andrew is most certainly is NOT going to get Ibi to pay the client back his money. IBI took the money.

No I am not blind. And as I have said before, if I was in CME place, I wou;d never have put the blame on Andrew. Ibi is the crook who has taken the money. He alone is responsible for paying it back. | |||

Statements are being made here which are based on false assumptions. Ibi won the first tender for the concession which was then cancelled by the new Government. He then won the second tender and this was the situation when Andrew was communicating with Corey. While Andrew was away in the bush hunting a business enemy of Ibi brought a court injunction putting the second tender on hold. This was the first that anyone knew that there was a problem. As neither Corey nor the infamous Ibi have responded to any form of communication from Andrew he is unable to influence Ibi in any way other than as a witness in the ongoing legal investigation. Continual invective on this forum is a waste of time until the legal process is complete. Clearly there are those with their own agenda who are out to destroy the reputation of a very fine PH. Some are business rivals, some are friends of Corey, which is fair enough, some are ignoring the facts and a few are just schoolyard bullies. The sooner this whole sorry affair is settled in court and Corey gets his money back, the better. | |||

the Pom - no one is trying to destroy a reputation. We are pointing the finger at the two who took money, did not provide the hunt, then did not refund the money when others were refunded. That is the point. Baldry acted as agent for Ibi - sold the hunt - directed the money be sent to Ibi- then watched as others got reimbursed and not this client. Saeed is asking for financial details on other people's hunts. What???? 470, myself and others have been to Africa and know the drill. We make our deals with REPUTABLE people and pay them as agreed, then they provide a hunt as agreed. This did not happen here. Deflecting on how I pay for my hunts or others is smoke. For the life of me I cannot understand why Saeed and a few others think Baldry is not a culpable here. He bashes Mark Sullivan, Cal Pappas and others over how they hunt buffalo, yet gives a pass to Baldry over this debacle. Double standard for sure. This forum gets crazier and crazier.... | |||

Aren't you forgetting Baldry's other clients who were refunded with the funds which Baldry solicited from Corey after the lack of a concession was public knowledge? ____________________________________________ "Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

They “Forget” and conveniently “ignore” a myriad of facts and details. Robbing Peter to pay Paul is one of the oldest stories ever told…. That’s basically what this was. They (and Andrew) bet on the come that the concession wouldn’t fall through…and it did and things went sideways Again as others noted many times Andrew buried himself by lying many times and he got caught each time. Yeah Saeed…everyone gets it…Ibi is a POS and yes he was directly paid… You also are wild in your position that Andrew wasn’t the Agent and up to his neck in the whole deal…he 10000%%%% was Is he powerless against a Politically connected Black African? Let’s call it what it is and say yeah. Not much he can do but he damn sure didn’t try and it’s fairly apparent he was a party to the dilution and redistribution of his funds to other clients | |||

Nor should he - he was the acting agent for Ibi. Ibi pays him after the hunt his commission for selling the hunt. Why is this so hard to grasp??? | |||

People see things the way they want to see things . This thread pretty much proves this. Is this thread going to help get Corey paid? No! Has this thread and the others been enlightening? Absolutely. Occasionally, little tidbits of new information come out . While informative, none of it changes my opinion. I have personally never heard of a complaint about any hunt that Andrew has conducted. By all accounts, he is a fine PH. However this issue is not about his skills as a PH. The fact of the matter is that Andrew contacted Corey . Absent this contact , none of this would have ever happened. That is an absolute fact. Can trust be placed in someone who knew or should have known that a hunt they sold and was going to be the PH was not going to happen ? The true believers will ignore this . Others will find it a massive problem. This thread is not going to change anyone’s mind on this matter . | |||

Actually, this total bullshit! How does he know this? Presumptions in blaming Andrew? Making up facts as we go along? Andrew never received a penny. I I is the culinary this. And only him is responsible for paying it back.. He already accepted responsibility and paid part back! Nothing to do with Andrew! | |||

So now we are supposed to believe that Andrew was not just an independent PH, nor even a mere agent, but he was actually Ibi’s managing partner, with full knowledge of negotiations with the government, and when things went south on that front, full power to direct who got repaid and with what funds?! Seriously!? That is ridiculous. Andrew never saw a cent or had any control over any such matters. You can be sure that, if he had, none of this would have happened!

Respectfully Saeed, I think you’re missing the point. They want blood, they want the man ruined. It is the new normal in the Western World. The insignificant masses who hold grudges for the times they were subjects, or the wannabe’s who feel they have an opportunity to take a shot for someone they worship become intoxicated by the mass formation psychosis (for lack of a better term) presented by social media. No realism or logic will prevail, they insinuate or demand something that is unreasonable or impossible, therefore will never happen so their outrage and cause can continue. It is about them, not him or the situation. | |||

You’re a black man in a black country. Would you give a shit what a bunch of white guys in the first world have to say about your business practices?? Think about it.

Stop trying to bring logic into this! “We are Americans and America law applies!” And of course lawyers have to chime in! If I was Ibi, and after all the threats against him and his family posted here, with the FBI, US Embassy etc getting involved, I would tell you all to go and do unspeakable things to yourselves! | |||

This was never a question of integrity as far Ibi is concerned. It is a question of integrity as far as Andrew is concerned. Bottom line, though, is Andrew simply doesn’t have the money to pay Corey back. I’m sure he would like to but it will never happen….

With friends like you, the clients doesn’t need enemies! By starting this thread, you have convinced Ibi he is does not have to pay back a penny! It is all Andrew’s fault! Just look at AR! | |||

I don’t see anyone saying it’s all Andrew’s problem, but that he does have some responsibility. Morally if not legally. He may well not have the finances to pay Corey, but he should have known about potential issues and been up front and kept Corey in the loop. I detect that Corey felt that Andrew did nothing to help him. Ibi is certainly more to blame, and has the resources to pay back Corey more so than Andrew… I don’t know how much responsibility lies with Andrew, but in my mind it’s not zero, and it’s certainly less than half. What is the commission on something like this? 10% for an agent? Andrew states he was not an agent or paid a commission- but he was involved in setting it up, and either knew or should have known the issues and communicated with Corey before the further payment was made, again, in my mind. So I do find the vitriol at Andrew excessive, but he’s not wholly innocent. He just not financially responsible. | |||
