    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....

Bad Guy Matthew Patti Exoticreptiles.org sent sick anaconda. Snake died. Won't return calls.

Thanks so much. I actually waited up all night with this snake because I had an appointment at 9:30am with a known specialist. She just wrapped her little tail around my forearm and died in my hands. I'm 35 and even called my mom and dad afterward lol! I was just bawling. My dad said it ruined his whole day. If someone has any information on leveraging some pressure on this guy it would be awesome.

BTW. I live in Portland OR, and I have a love affair with the city of Seattle. My sister lives in Sumner and I visit often. I would love to possibly due business at some point.

Regards

Tim Carter
 
I really want to make everyone aware as weel that since I posted this complaint that Mr. Patti has become extraordinarily particular about updating his liability policy. Irony?
 
I am obviously wrong, but I thought when a website had a
.ORG at the end, it was a government or charity type website.
to the OP Tim, it looks like a very nice website, make sure you come update us every 2 weeks , (till you get bored with it)everytime you do, it will bring this thread to the top of the BOI.
Good luck!

Hi Tim - sorry I haven't written back sooner - Seattle is fantastic. I'm so sorry you've had such a bad experience. Have you notified the seller of this thread? perhaps it would help your situation if he realized how public this forum really is?
 
So just a quick update. Still heard nothing from Matthew Patti. Someone locally told me that there are intercontinental organizations that can help with situations like these. Anyone have any suggestions as to how to bring this guy to justice?
 
Yea, I saw where it said charleston, but I was asking for more of an address. ON his "contact us" page, it only leaves a number and same with the other places he post.
 
Hey hello there. He lives in Summerville. I will private message you his entire address on your profile. Let me know if you don't get it or can't find it. If you are within a convenient distance I can't tell you how much that would mean to me.

Tim
 
He has a Facebook for exotic reptiles. I say you should post the link to this thread there... lots of live viewing on Facebook, maybe it will help. Sorry for your loss, good luck! I live in Seattle (renton) and if I can help let me know. Thanks.
