• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

I was extremely interested in buying the paleo. Palpebrosus he has for sale on here right now. Cash in hand, ready to buy it.

First, his name isn't Jack Mesa, it is Jung Choe. User name is Jdeezy85. He won't accept paypal because it verifies the sellers info (bank info and his address). His excuse is he's had "too many charge backs" from paypal. He will only accept western Union or other methods that aren't traceable to him personally.

1. Two names. He didn't use his real name on here.
2. Won't give me any info on himself other than his city and supposed name.
3. Won't accept any form of payment other than something that leaves the buyer free to get ripped off. No insurance whatsoever.
4. When ASKED for some kind of insurance, he dodged the question with "You better act fast. He's getting sold either way.."
5.After asking him some more questions, like "Who is Jack Mesa? He says "I've already sold animals without all the interrogation".

LUCKILY I WISED UP AND DIDN'T SEND THE WESTERN UNION. STEER CLEAR OF THIS GUY. ALL THE SIGNS ARE THERE. HE'S GOING TO RIP YOU OFF.
 
Probably should have been an info thread since there was no transaction and the only thing you are going on is sketchy communication. Maybe you can post the ad you replied to and the rest of your conversation so that it doesnt get lost in space.
 
Jung Choe has had a few accounts banned from this site, because he likes to change his names regularly. He has stated that he just feels like a change (doesn't like his old screen name anymore), and/or that he forgot his password & can't access his prior email accounts...which is all well and good, except when the "real name" is also being changed and sales inquiries sent to the previously used emails still get answers.
 
Honest, reputable breeders or retailers just don't do shady things like that. I asked if I could send him a check early on in our conversation. I told him the reason behind it would be that upon cashing the check he'd have to show id and give a thumb print. That was a no-go as well for him.

I guarantee he is creating fraudulent ads in order to make a quick buck off of unsuspecting buyers.

If by chance he is an honest seller: Then why all deception? Why tell your customers to use western union EVEN though it is the most unsafe way (other than mailing cash) to do business for the buyer?
 
I was the one dumb enough to pay for a animal because I have never had anyone screw me over anymore info on this guy would help me get my money back let me know if anyone knows anything else that would be helpful
 
347 994 9143 is the number he was texting me with. A couple things you can do: Track his ip address and contact the provider to tell them he is using their service for crime.

Give his number to the police, do a report and let them figure out who he is through his phone provider. Fauna should have his ip address...

Think you could post his ip address on here?
 
I suggest that you refrain from making such comments - threats of violence are not taken lightly here
 
Not much is taken lightly here thats why I dont use this site offtin there are much better ones on the web like kingsnake venomousreptiles heck even hoobly but people who steal from hard working Americans like me who was just trying to get a center piece to top off my zoo I educate children with upsets me just a tad
 
Here's his address and home number:

Home (347) 242-3997
8615 30th Ave
East Elmhurst, NY 11369-1409

His dad is Jung Bong Choe. He is a 27-28 year old kid. I bet his dad would love to help you get your money back or have him ship you the animals. My Korean friends might all be misguided, but their parents are not.

Isn't the internet grand?
