Has any one done bussiness w/ Bob Sloan - Del Rio,Tx.

As for any permit in TX, with his legal history and reputation that would never happen either... if somebody for some reason added his name to their up and running permit, it would certainly bring them a lot of negative attention and most likely bring an end to that permit by TP&W.

Lance,
I think you are forgetting who Bob is working for! Who bails out Bob everytime he gets jailed for traffic offenses and similar minor infractions.

I have a good idea of what you are getting at, I just have no idea how anybody would back him up.

Josh Sawyer is a student at Sul Ross and rents Sloan's house in Del Rio during the school year. I've met both of them and they are two different people. Josh in much younger. They both have heloderms and a lot of them. I saw probably 50-75 of them. Now I don't know one heloderm from another, but they had what looked like retics, bandeds and beadeds based on size. I did not even know that beadeds even got to be almost 4' ! The beadeds all looked different with some being almost toally black and somne like the retic gilas and then there was one that was mostly black with double tail rings - weird. Not sure if they were trying to rip you off, but they had a lot of gilas and beadeds. I also know Sloan got a permit to collect Mexico and brought back a haul of montane rattlers, alterna and heloderms. They had rattlers I'd never seen or heard of. Last time I saw Josh was in August on the Juno road collecting.

These are the things that make me go hmmmm.
Wonder if any of Ray's snakes ended up at Sloans?

Sul Ross is in Alpine TX... and Bob as far as I know is not held down by any kind of 9 to 5 and could be there in just a few hours from Del Rio. It is worth wondering about.

You are not the only one from what I have heard.

I spoke with Ray. You definitely are not the only one.
When I was dealing with Josh, he mentioned the theft 5 or 6 times.

These are emails where Josh is telling me about his H.h.charlesbogerti. They are cites 1
and not legal to own , much less sell. He claims to have 5 female breeders.
He also told me he hatches them out in November. Not.



We sold them two years ago in Hamburg, Germany

Almost all of our hots go to Hamburg

By the way , Josh sounds like a 60 year old guy, at least. And NOBODY gets permits to collect charlesbogerti. Yet he claims to breed and sell them!

So Josh is an older (like maybe 60) student at Sul Ross into rare high end hot herps and he knows Jeff Foxworthy. Interesting how nobody seems to know the guy

Need some input ;
He sent me a snake (that is supposed to be delivered sometime today 7-11-07) he sent it w/o getting a confirmation from to to ship. He sent it C.O.D. (it was to be part of a trade for some of my stock). I don't want this snake as I don't want to deal with this guy. I am already starting to build a nice little collection of threatening/bully emails from him.

Anyway, I will have to pay for this snake to complete the delivery, I don't want to refuse it because I am sure the snake would not survive the return trip. What I plan to do,is accept the box and ship the snake back on my regular shipping day next week. Also there is to be a $50.00 M.O. in the box as part of the trade, I planned to use it to cover the cost of shipping back to him. And he has already stated the he would refuse shipment if I sent his snake back.

I don't want the snake to suffer from his stupidity.

Can you just sell the snake to someone decent and then send him the money for it? That way the snake gets a good home and does not have to go back to the that is Bob Sloan
