    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 completed a transaction with WWOP and I wanted to comment on Ryan's business ethic. I was very pleased with the quality of the animals I received, the packaging job was close to perfection (he ships LEGALLY too), and the professional way in which the entire deal was carried out was second to none.

I like to give credit where credit is due. Lately, there have been fewer "good guy" posts than the number of threads about the losers who would be best off getting out of reptiles and into selling used cars.... so I wanted to thank WWOP and Ryan Blakely for being a stand-up guy and a good person with whom I plan to do business with again.... soon.

I'll have to second that.  I bought a Wagler's Viper off of Ryan not too long ago, and he was honest with me as far as the snakes feeding habits go and everything.  Very nice guy, very good to work with.  I wouldn't hesitate to buy anything from him.
 
Hi all,
I have to agree also. Ryan is top notch and knows his animals
both reptile and mammal. I would recommend him to anyone!

God Bless
