    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....

Just got in last night a sub-adult female Anery Boa from Mickey. She arrived Delta packaged professionally and was exactly as represented. Mickey was very accomodating to my schedule even though he is in the process of moving his entire shop to a new location.

The entire process was exceptional and I received an excellent animal, thanks Mickey.
 
Mickey is an exceptional guy to purchase from. I bought a female anery boa from him, she is a screamer. Well worth the money he was quick to return e-mails, he was right on top of everything between the transaction.

Mickey's great. Over the past several years, I have bought from him, he has bought from me, and we have done several trades. Everything always goes 100% smoothly and professionally. He's definitely a GOOD GUY!
 
I bought a male albino from Mickey in July, effortless transaction despite the mail being incredibly slow with my money order. Mickey was very understanding about the delay and delivered a beautiful animal. Mickey always has top quality animals at good prices.

I have gotten snakes and beardies from Mickey.. Great service great reptiles and a awesome friend. You can buy with confidence...He will be there before and after the sale...Keep up the good work Mickey.....Can not wait until you come to Texas..
 
Good guy...

Hey,

While I have not personally done any transactions with Mickey, I have talked with him many times. He seems to be very passionate about the animals he sells, and knows their husbandry parameters like the back of his hand. Easy to talk to, and will answer any questions you might have. Great guy.

A+ customer service!

I recently ordered a UTH from Mickey, and he didn't have it in stock....he emailed me back within a couple of hours and apologized, as he wasn't expetcing to have it in for quite awhile....and the money had already been refunded to my Paypal account. A few days later, he personally emailed me again to let me know he had received them earlier than expected, and he would still honor the sale price if I needed one.

I had already purchased one elsewhere (I needed it right away) but did place an order for some other items with him.....and I not only received the order confirmation, but a personal note from him thanking me for my order. I received the order in record time, and he threw in a couple of "extras" with it.

Maybe some folks wouldn't think this was all a big deal....but the personal service and "extra effort" is a big deal to me. In this day and age of the "big companies", it's a rare pleasure to really be treated like a truly valued customer, even though my orders weren't that big. He has made a return customer here!!!!

Thanks again Mickey!!! :)
 
Well, I'm not suprised at all the great responses when dealing with Mickey. We have dealt a few times in the past and every deal went threw smoothly. I have also meet Mickey and hung out with him at a few shows (philly, etc.) and he was fun to be around and party with as well. If the MICK has something you want, just buy it.
