    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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 am sick! I think I've been scamed

I am sick!! I did a trade with a Jason Linebaugh. I traded a juvenile Kenyan sand boa for 1.1 high yellow leopard gecko's. I sent the Kenyan and $30 cash for shipping the gecko's as requested by Jason. I just received them DEAD! He mailed them 2nd day with out heat packs and he had said he would return any left over money from the shipping which would be 13.75, but he did not send any money either. I feel so sad for the leopard gecko's and so angry at him. He did not give me a phone number which like an idiot I did not ask for. I emailed him about 1 hour ago and am waiting to hear what he has to say which will probably be nothing. He me he shipped them out early Fri. morning to arrive on Sat. priority shipping, but the sticker on the box says he paid for 2nd day which would be today (Sunday) and not Sat. If anyone has a phone number for this person please email it to me. Thank you.  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>
 
Kimtall,

Homestead, FL 33030
305-248-9008

You also need to add your full name when posting on the BOI or your posts will be deleted!!
    Tom
 
All you need do is go to the topic on this guy several threads down and you'll see you're not the only one. This guy's a slime with no care for reptiles or humans either for that matter.
 
This kid is REALLY starting to piss me off! Isn't this the same kid with the half-dead Iguana?? If he has a table at the Tampa Show....there will be XXXX to pay!! And YES!!, you DID get scammed!! ....Neil
 
Same kid neil who sold me Holly the blind iggy... fuckin #######, at least kim is kinda lucky her's came dead, saves her ALOT of fuckin suffering stress and pain...a note to kim...if u still have the lizard bodies save them, take them for autopsy and see how long they've been dead....

on a lighter note, anyone want to join in and send raw maggott covered meat to jasons house? nice clumpy milk too? lemme know your thoughts...
 
Neil i bet he wont have a table, yet he will probably be there...

**********FOR ANYONE AT THAT SHOW**********

Please if u can print this out and warn people about him.....that includes every show!!!!
 
Well according to another post....he goes around aol chat saying he guarantees his animals.

So call him on it.

Ask him if he guarantees them to be alive and healthy....or if he guarantees them to be sick and/or dead.

also all posts need to have a full name so try the following.
otherwise your post might get erased

1. click on "control panel" (upper left, right under fauna classifieds banner)

2 click on personal info

3. click on edit your profile

4 scroll down to your signature.

5.  type in your signature

6 click on ammend my profile
 
ok, both of you that got scammed by this guy need to report him to kingsnake immediately so that your kenyan sand boa doesnt end up a doa on some other poor person's doorstep.  technically, that kenyan sand boa shouldnt even be his to sell, since his end of the trade wound up dead.  but on the other hand, considering his shipping record, i wouldnt want him to send it back to me either.  
he says "guarentee"--well, let's see it.  both of you need compensation--NOW.  i cant believe he's got your snake up for sale already.  
i still think that iguana was a rescue orginally.  this is sick.
come on guys, how can we stop this slime!!!  I cant sit around and watch this happen again.

I have reported Jason to Kingsnake and have asked Melissa (the lady who got the Iguana to do the same). I have also made contact with the ASPCA in Florida and the USPS. I live by 2 quotes.
1. "What goes around comes around"
2. "I don't get mad I get even" (this is myfavorite)

Jason screwed with the wrong person. I have lots of time on my hads to make him pay for his actions somehow.
 
im gonna report to kingsnake...

as much as i wanna do so much about this ive been so frazzled about it....i cant do much, i have to contantly watch this iggy cause of her blindness..she sleeps w/ me cause she get scared...im losing sleep and the only free time i get is about 2wice a day after i dilate her eyeball and apply cream to it, she enjoys basking....so i can sit and relax...on top of this, i have to pay attention to my other lizzies. they are really personable and need to be petted and soaked and fed and misted and whatnot....its alot of work ontop of which, having Holly McBlind <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

I'll get my ass moving cut and paste the first post i wrote to this board and send it to kingsnake.

Sorry for my language..lol a bunch of # signs arent nessisary, its just if u were put through this hellish stress u would get mad as well...

Once again thats everyone for the support and Kim, keep me posted on him...
 
I am a breeder in florida and I am unfamiliar with this guy but I wish I was more familiar with him because he sounds like what is wrong with this industry and he gives us all a bad name.  Homestead is a very long drive for me and I almost never get down that way but I attend the local shows and if I can help give this guy the spotlight I will !  He is the reason a lot of people dont do business over the internet.

Lemme just say something about you, ,Gary...

YOU ARE AN ANGEL! <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Lots of Luv,
Melissa and Holly Iggy <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
 
i don't know about you guys. But i think that maybe we should band together and buy this snake quick before it goes down the tubes really quick. I mean the money would go to a worth while cause. I would b willing to foster the snake i have sandboas of my own right now. Please let me know and we can talk about  this some more. <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>
 
WOW,


             What a heart warming response !!!  Thank you Melissa.   <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>   Thatmade my night, plus the fact that Neil G. was nice enough to also send me some kind words.  Im glad I got out of bed today !!!  Butafter reading the above post I also agree with a staement made " We all need to band together " I plan on going on kingsnake and posting to this person letting him know other people do care.

Well, unfortunately, I just contacted Tony Cueto (promotor of the Tampa Show), and was told this Mental Midget WILL NOT have a table (or will he EVER have a table) at Tony's show!!
GOOD FOR YOU, TONY!! ....Neil
 
It warms my heart to see such posative responses. Thank you Gary, Neil, and Boidboy55. I hope everyone will look out for this little "mental midget" and put the spot light on him like Gary said. It is so sad to me that there are so many bad apples in the bunch when it come to the reptile trade. It is wonderful to know that there are honest and caring people out there like Neil, Gary, Boidboy55, Ritchie Luna and others. Together we are all more powerful than all of the scumbags out there and if we ban together we can prevent them from selling at shows and get them banned from sights like Kingsnake. Like I said in a previous post...."what goes around comes around". Carma people, Carma. Lots of love to all of the "good guys" out there. You know who you are. Give yourselves a pat on the back.

Something about this Jason Linebaugh moron seems eerily familiar to me. He is from Homestead, Fla? Right. Well, guess which other two lowlives are also from there? Who remembers Brian Rogers Sr and Jr?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>??? Aside from the fact that 'Jason' and the Brians both have similar modus operendis, they also have similar email addresses:

Brian: [email protected]

'Jason:' [email protected]

Does anyone here happen to have Brian Jr's phone number? I want to compare those...
