    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I just bought a beautiful '07 lemon pastel (Nerd line) from Russ Lawson. The snake (Sonny) is very healthy & well-fed; the color is great.
He is very prompt with returning emails and very knowledgeable (check out his website). His customer service throughout the whole process of the transaction has been great & I have no reason to believe that if I have further questions regarding this animal that the customer service will continue. We live within 2 hours of each other, so a meet was arranged. At the appointed time, he was there & bing, bang, boom, the deal was done!
Thanks for a smooth transaction Russ!
 
I just received 6 very beautiful female normals from Russ. Very great price and they all arrived very healthy!

He returned all of my emails very quickly which helped out the transaction a lot. The snakes were also packaged perfectly!

Check out his site, I wouldn't hesitate to do business with him again!

I just received a VERY handsome Ghost BP from Russ. He arrived snuggly warm and very well packed. He is a sweet little guy and quite friendly, even after his long trip! I am very happy with my purchase and would not think twice about purchasing again! Russ is certainly one of the Good Guys! Thanks Russ!
 
Back a couple of weeks ago I received a Lemon Pastel male from Russ. The packaging was perfect, with plenty of padding and sufficient heat. Upon close inspection I discovered a slight kink in the neck of the baby (it was easily missed, especially when the snake was in a defensive posture, with the neck in an 'S' shape). I took pictures and immediately contacted Russ with my concerns. After looking at my pics, he agreed with my conclusion, and he offered either a complete refund or a replacement baby. Within a week he sent me, completely free of any charges, a replacement Lemon Pastel baby male (which he let me pick out of his available stock). Heck, he even let me keep the first one so I could adopt it out to a person who won't use it for breeding.

Both babies are doing fine, and they have strong feeding responses to f/t rat pinks.

Russ is one class act. His communications are top-notch, his integrity is beyond question, and he genuinely cares about his customers satisfaction as well as his animals. I would recommend him to anyone wanting a pleasant experience in purchasing snakes. :thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
I also wanted to put in some good words about Russ. He was very easy to deal with and was in contact the whole time. He was very helpful. I got my lil female Spider Ball (Miss Jezebel) and she was packed very well, very happy lady and is a garbage disposal with feeding. I am very happy with her quality and she is beautiful and very healthy. I highly recommend buying from Russ.
