    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....

Hi,

I thought I would let everyone know of my experiences with Chris. About 2 months ago I was in search of a 09 0.1 Ghost het albino boa and he had the genetics and price was pretty good. Unfortuantly, my weather was not.

I put down 50% until the weather was warmer. I recieved weekly updates without having to even ask. I did ask for newer pictures and got them within 24-48 hours. I was very impressed with the service already so by the 3rd or 4th week of waiting I went ahead and picked up a 09 1.0 DH sunglow since he said I could have them both shipped for the same price. It was a very good looking Hypo and the price was exactly around my budget for one.

Weather came around and I got my shipment in. Packaged very well and both were better looking in person. It took a while to get my stuff due to the weather but I never felt uncomfortable at all and any and all questions were anwsered promptly and politely.

I've had both of the boas for around 3 weeks now and wanted to make sure they both took 2 meals and such before I posted anything but I would not hesitate to recommend Chris to anyone else. His prices are good, and his animals are great.

Thanks again. I will probably do more business with you in the future at some point.

Chris is a stand up guy. He resolves issues swiftly. Puts up with my impatience by emailing me and making absolutely sure that the animas come first. I will not hesitate to do more business with Chris in the future and look forward to many many years of his service. As a true asset to this community, Chris is the the go-to guy for me.

Chris is very comptetive in his pricing, will even make sure that I get deals "friends" can barely match. I have asked Chris to keep me informed on future breedings so that I am able to do even more business with him.

Thank you for tolerating me and making me feel like I count in your grand scheme of things. Good luck with your season and look forward to your next email.

Reagrds,
 
Hey All,

I can also put a good guy label on Chris. I am fortunate enough to be fairly local to him so we see each other at the shows. I has seen some of his offspring and they are top notch. I am sure he will be turning out a bunch fanastic babies this year too.

thanks

There are at least FIVE threads in the BOI telling everyone what a great guy he is.
IT'S ALL TRUE--he is great to deal with and is almost like a 'one stop herp shop.'
Looking forward to doing more business with you, Chris!
 
I will even say this about Chris too... Last year, he was offering some CH 07 females. He had like 100 of them and was looking to make a deal on ALL of them. So, naturally I didnt respond. A couple months later, he broke them down into 2 25 lots and 1 50 lot I think. Anyhow, I emailed him ONE time regarding the price of 25 of them. Realized that I couldnt do it and moved on with my life. I finally made a purchase with him and he remembered me by that ONE email. I sure hope that I can emulate this guy when it comes to service. He is A+ in my book.
 
Two cent's to toss on the pile----My transaction with Chris was a completely prompt, intelligent, smooth-sailing transaction. Payment arrived on time or early, and coordinating shipping to him was a breeze, thus a pleasure. ANY time, any thing I can do in the future, Chris!
