    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 coldbloodedreptilelover ripped me off and is selling the snake i sent him!!!!

Then, after a few pages of flaming:

Mark, help me understand how you got a tracking number from USPS yesterday (see bold above) when you shipped using UPS today?

So, what's the UPS tracking number???

It absolutely kills me that ANYBODY runs their life this way :angry: .
 
This guy is a moron, even a 14 year old could lie better than that! If you are going to lie at least keep track of what you lied about. lol And I'm pretty sure he's lying about his name. No doubt about that.
 
He picked the WORST day to ship. If it's here in Colorado their are flash flood warnings, server thunder storm warnings, and tornado warnings ALL over Colorado so if it's on a plane right now it might not be able to land until it's over.
 
Terrible day to ship(if he did)...it was well into the 90's with ridiculous humidity here in Jersey. I highly doubt it was all that much cooler in southern Mass.
 
i shipped this way before never had a problem

new to reptiles thats the truth

Aww, c'mon, guys.....how was he supposed to know it'd be hot today?

Based on what we've seen, I am thinking that poor snake was shipped in a used shoe box with newspaper for insulation (if it was shipped at all). And I'll eat my shoe if it had a cold pack.

I believe Mao said something like, "Hope for sunshine but build dykes." Dylan - I am hoping like hell for sunshine for you.
 
I would be very surprised if this guy shipped that snake. This dude is just going to give the run around until Dylan gets tired and stops chasing him or until he THINKS it will all blow over. Little does he know that if he shipped the animal in these conditions in a very substandard way he will NEVER be able to salvage his name. This is turning out to be one epic thread.

Mark we have given you every possible chance to make things right and to right this wrong. Come on the forum and for once in your life be honest and shoot straight with us. DID you ship the animal?, HOW did you ship the animal?,
and WHAT is the tracking number?

IF you can come here and answer those simple questions and provide a valid tracking number you would really see a change in how people will view you.. wont be much better but it will be better then it is now. your at rock bottom you have no where else to go but up. :thumbsup:

Without going back to look through all the BS he has thrown at Dylan(and us), even returning the animal would not change how I view this guy in the least...that's just me.

Even if he does return the snake in good health, what positive is there to see in that? He stole an animal and only returned because he got caught? Returning Dylan's snake would not be doing the right thing...it would be done only to try to minimize damage, legal or otherwise. Not saying he shouldn't return it because he definitely should, just that the right thing would have been to never steal it to begin with. Sorry, but this guy will not be getting any pats on the back from me if he indeed does/has done the "right" thing.

Not saying 1 good deed will erase all the bad because i completely agree with you 100%. The thing is he doesn't have to return the snake and yes he got caught. So by returning the snake with nothing to gain will be 1 step in the right direction. This guy is by far one of the worst people i have ever learned about. I feel a admission followed by a apology with him returning the snake would be a GREAT thing for him to do. Dylan deserves his animal back or some sort of compensation and guys like Mark dont do things because they are right they normally do things because there is something for them. so that something here is a step to redemption.
 
Omg.. That poor animal. This entire thing is unbelievable!! You never ship a snake through the post office! Yes they say they allow reptiles but not snakes. I doubt it's packaged correctly if it was shipped and overnight is the only way to ever ship!

This is so horrible. I hate reading these things. I hope Dylans bad karma rating isn't from this thread because that blows my mind too.

Mark/Billy/William... If you did ship that snake I'm appalled at your apparent disregard for living things and I feel sorry for any baby you may have.. If you didn't ship it, fess up. Please just let a member meet you and take the animal from you to send back to Dylan. It's been done on here before. Quite recently I might add. It's the easiest and safest way to do this.

If that snake was shipped, I hate to say it, but I doubt it would make that trip with this weather. The heat and humidity for 2 days would make the inside if a box like a sauna. Especially if it really did just eat and went to the bathroom in the box.. Oh what a disaster. That Billy/Mark guy is the kind of person I detest.
 
Im still interested in the tracking number... this guy is seriously messed up and will definately be on the list of people I will not associate/do business with. Dylan, any word yet on a tracking number that he could have emailed you??? what about the snake? has it arrived yet??
 
We still don't know if it was actually shipped and how. It would be wise to just give back the snake, and in a way that ensures it's safety. Remember recently a member lived very close to a snake thief and actually got the police involved, thanks in part, to this site, and the thief met up with him and gave the snake the snake back to avoid charges? Well I think that's what needs to be done here.

Yup! I remember that but won't throw names for infraction reasons :shootfoot

That's what's mostly likely going to happen in this case if this snake doesn't show. His real name is starting to be revealed, possible picture, they're working on an address, local PD has been informed... Obviously this feller doesn't follow the BOI because he WILL get caught and as time passes, his true identity and location WILL be revealed and someone WILL hold him accountable for his actions. Mark or whoever you are, you've done a good job playing ninja up to now, but your days are numbered.

I really hope that does happen. Plenty of people seem to be stepping up to help in that area.

Of course he picked the hottest days of 2011 to "ship" the snake back, which I have extreme doubts he even did.

I'll put money the old "post office lost the box/package is missing" excuse.
 
Well again, Ill pitch in some funds to have the snake shipped back if someone close to him can get in contact with PD to get the snake back...
