Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

seriously joe made me sick just listening to him. i read the threads way back when he stated he was going to put alot of people out of business and make the morphs available for just everyday people to be able to just go into a petstore and buy.
lets have a reality check here. do we really want the common folk taking care of ANY ball pythons let alone the high investment morphs? not that common folk are looked down upon, but what i mean by that is someone (most impulse buyers) that don't take the time to do the research and mainly buy the snake as some falic extension of his (or depending on who you are (JOEY???)) or her manhood???
morphs are an investment, and that is the way they should remain... let the market decide the vaule, and not some powerhungry man with money, and a personal vendetta.
i am all for selling animals at the price you want, just not publicly.
i sell items far less than market value at times, but NEVER have i ever advertised my prices on any public forum, personal website, or classified ad.
he has NO love for the animals, just the dollar signs they represent, and for that matter should be beaten and flogged with his precious collection of ball pythons.........
i have a huge collection and can barely make ends meet... there are many animals that i could flood the market with at good prices when the time comes to produce this next year, but just because i can doesn't mean i should. i have a love for my animals, and always have. joe capone just loved the money they represented.
he could have been somewhat successful for the long haul if he would have went about things the right way, but just like most people when they see $$$ signs, greed got the best of him, and his ego shot through the roof.
i honestly think anyone that buys from him knowing his slimy reputation should be ran out of the hobby as well. it is just my opinion, but seriously, this man is a trickster and duped alot of good people. who's to say those spending money with him knowing what he's about, aren't of the same breed?

No stake in either of Joe or Rick Denmon's dealings, but just in case anybody wanted more evidence that they are partners, I copied this header from Joe's page:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>Power House Reptiles</title>
<meta name="keywords" Content="Power House Reptiles ball pythons reptiles breeder sale sales snake pythons royal pythons axanthic albino pastel ghost caramel albino double het snow xanthics het ball piebald ball axanthic snow">
<meta name="Author" CONTENT="Rick Denmon">
<meta name="Microsoft Theme" content="denmon 010, default">
</head>
Does Rick still claim his only association with Joey Capone is buying from to resell? I know that's what he was saying in May in the Rick Denmon thread...
I'm not into bp's, or at least yet because there's many scumbags that you have to be wary of.

Hm.
I guess if you feel comfortable buying from someone who is a shady businessman at best....someone who cares nothing for the animals whatsoever except for the $$$$....someone who is more than happy to stab friends as well as customers in the back.....someone who has no problems lying in bed with with white-supremacist known criminal reptile ripoff artists....someone who collects money for animals he doesn't even have....all BESIDES being a complete ass....that's your choice. It's people that are willing to look the other way that keep scum like Joey in business.
It's not like there aren't other folks offering the same animals he has (as far as I know, hard to say for sure since he's been banned from just about every place, but one would assume) that are honest, trustworthy, and actually give a damn about the animals themselves. THOSE are the people I will be spending MY money with.

He's not lurking. I would say he is taking the lead in a discussion, weeding out bad guys, and offering useful info. I usually lurk, (looks like you do too)
I don't think Wes could be convicted of that!

Problem is Cat That many of the people he sells to are just looking for the lowest price available. Not the quality or the name that produced the Ball. Its all about the money. Thats how idiots like Joe can come in and wreck the market. On the other hand saying joe wrecked the market gives him far to much credit. GREED KILLED THE MARKET....

Did Joe pay you to come here and start this thread? If so, he is making you look real bad, just so you know.
Joe dropped the market on animals he did not have, Wes told me this himself on the phone. Joe was trying to buy these animals at even cheaper whole sale prices to fill orders. It went from 1000s of breeding morphs to 250, Wes told me himself, most of them were nothing but normal babies. He also said Joe was selling off his morph breeders (Wes's) to fill orders. Thus the reason for the split, that I doubt ever happen.
It went like this: He said he was dropping the price way lower than any other breeders, however he was not a breeder, he could not supply the animals himself. He did expect other breeders to sell whole sale under his set prices. What kinda joke is that? Nothing more then scum, botton line.
Joe: I will sell you this at that price, but let me order it first. Thats what you call a big respected breeder? In a pigs eye he is!!
Scumbag used car dealer, to lie about being a Super ball python breeder and supporter of scammers, then right back to scumbag.
Some things never change.

I was waiting for a response. How did the original buyer that posted find Joe to make a purchase? And what exactly did he purchase?

Just in case some of you are wondering at the name Wes being tossed around, it's not me. Wes Harris is the unfortunate who was taken in, giving him the benefit of the doubt, by joey capony.
While I have kept ball pythons and bred them, I am not a ball python guy. In fact, for years I didn't have any at all.
Everything Bobby said is true. joey capony is a lying sack of crap and I'm ( ) close to thinking the same of Wes Harris but I don't have the proof, just a gut feeling which could be wrong.
