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.

Anyone dealt with Mark Ahmadi
Mark Ahmadi from Mobile Alabama, anyone dealt with him as a buyer? Thanks!
He wants to buy my boss, but he has 0 posts here.

I just finished a deal with him. He was quick to pay the PayPal invoice and signed for them through fedex upon delivery. Got a message for him staying they were great and thanked me. Shipping done via SYR. No issues as of yet. Hope this helps.

Yeah, I was insanely fast to pay! Almost too pushy with, which is what made me concerned.
I made him fedex me a money order, should have it today. We’ll see. I’ll update this post when he gets them.

You have to remember Leslie, not a whole lot of people use Fauna anymore. I wish more people would use it because I feel like the BOI is such a great tool for both buyer and seller. I just sold a boa to Mark Ahmadi from Mobile, AL. He messaged me Sunday evening Oct 14th. He sent me the money via PayPal that same night. I Just shipped out his boa on Tuesday evening and he received it today Oct 17th at 9:30am. I messaged him to see how the boa was doing and he said everything was good and thanked me. Money is still in my PayPal account, everything seems to be fine on my end. I say you're safe to go ahead and sell him a snake.

You’re so right, I just hope the good guys still come here to post about the bad ones.
People are shadier than ever these days. When I googled the name, I didn’t find favorable things. I got the money order today, I’ll be cashing it tomorrow and getting the shipping supplies and get them to him next week I’d assume.

He contacted me saying to hold certain animals, got back to him letting him know one was sold but I had stuff I haven’t posted yet. He asked to see them, wanted all of them after he got his money right in a day or so. Mind you he just registered a month ago! So I entertained him. He gets back to me one night after I’m already asleep saying he’s ready and he’ll take what I got! Great, I wake up a couple hours later see his message and reply first thing in the am his time. He gets back to me later saying over the course of the night he spent X amount of dollars and can’t take them anymore. I’ve done this for almost two decades now so I was expecting this from a new member. Then we’re still texting and all of the sudden he paid my girl Ashley like 12k to much and if I can give him a couple days to figure out the refund he’ll take the good size order he wanted. Me being the to nice guy I am, said ok. At that point I confirmed his story with Ash. So at this point I’m thinking, he has to be legit and my experience is due to my schedule! This dude likes to buy boas late at night! So after sending him detailed pictures with prices in order and after him putting 3k of boas on hold, he then changes his mind for the 4th or 5th time and says he just wants the $250 female. There’s not any $250 female! There was a $250 you originally hit me up on and then some. Anyways, my experience from this guy is, he’s new and doesn’t quite get the ethics of the business yet. Sounds like he’s buying a lot of stuff and not really doing the math as far as the ups and mostly downs of buying adult females and is just trying to jump in our hobby head first with money instead of knowledge. We’ve all seen how those people end up most of the time. Hopefully he takes a step back and does some research. That’s my rant cause for me he was just an emotional roller coaster! I want this, I can’t, Now I can, I can but now u only want this one that doesn’t exist! Lol That’s just my experience though, I also know he is legit and does actually spend his money when he says. Just not the hours I’m awake! So this is a mixed review, he’s legit, just be ready to wheel and deal late night! Otherwise, y the time you wake up a few hours later he’ll have already blown 32k in 8 hours! Best of luck to you in this hobby sir!

Just to update....
I didn’t have any of the back and forth like Ruben. He paid via money order as requested, it cleared and he signed for the snakes. I got a text saying they are gorgeous. So, no issues

One of the lucky ones! I’d try working with him again cause I know he’s been legit with others I know. I just hope to have the same experience as the rest of you!
