    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....

Ben Siegel Great Guy!

:thumbsup:

I emailed poor Ben a million times before the Daytona show, asking him about a hatchling. He answered each one, and when I arrived at the show, he was wonderfully helpful!
I came home with a spectacular snake, for a unbeatable price, due to Ben!
I was greatly pleased with the transaction, and with the animals he had for sale. All his guys were very helpful and friendly.
Thank you Ben!

Agreed - I also had a positive experience with Ben. Great animal, unbeatable price.
 
I bought 3 snakes from Ben at Daytona and have purchased from him previously. Always nice animals. His shop should be a model for all reptile shops.
 
Ben Seigel is a class act all the way around. He has been around for a long time and I have never heard ONE bad thing about him. Every deal I have had with him was great.
 
No problems here!

Ordered a Sambava Panther chameleon from Ben yesterday afternoon. Ben actually answered the phone and personally took the order from me and answered any questions that I had. Cham arrived safely by 10:15 this morning looking healthy.
 
It's been a while since I dealt with him, but I had a great experience buying from Ben as well. Not only did I get a great deal on the nicest looking Candoia carinata I've ever seen, but it was eating mice to boot. I'd definitely buy from him again.
 
Always good dealing with Ben

I have bought from and sold to Ben and both sides have always gone very well. Even when busy he always seems to take care of his customers and understand how important "people skills" can be.

I got a house snake from Ben at the Gila show in Tampa, and he's definitely a great guy! Helped me pick one out, and sexed it for me right there. Answered all my questions, too. He's definitely a good guy!
 
one of the true good guys!

Yes, I agree. Ben is one of the true good guys in this business. Always has a great selection of animals and really good prices. good man!
 
Bought a Female Pastel from Ben today at the Raleigh, NC show. I must say she is spectacular. Thanks Ben! However I am still waiting for that Senior Citizen Discount :)
 
I bought a Peruvian Rainbow boa yearling from him earlier this year. They were very nice and answered all my questions about the subspecies. The snake arrived in perfect condition and was much larger than I had expected. I was very impressed with the markings and iridescence on the animal and would not hesitate to buy from Ben again.
 
Had a recent purchase with Ben.

I can certainly vouch for the quality of his animals, the excellent packaging and the high level of communication and service.
