    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....

Received my motley gen stripe female Friday morning and she is spectacular. Perfect packaging, and a healthy boa. Would gladly do business with her again!
 
You think I haven't seen that? I have read that whole thing. I believe her. She explained everything and I believe her. I don't care what one post has to say. That's one person dragging things out. A snake that does after 15 months? That's your own fault not the seller. There is no disease in her stock. I'm not the only one who received a snake/s from her Friday. We are happy with our animals and I don't need you bringing old beef on MY thread.

Btw we were all full aware of all the crap flying around and still did business. We speak to her often. See her snakes posted often etc. They are healthy. A few tragedies doesn't mean someone is selling sick animals. Babies die all the time. A lot of breeders just don't advertise it. I've seen many say there were several still borns or only one survived etc. And not all of those she listed were HER animals. Some were friends of hers that she helps sell I believe. Believe what you want. I speak to her all the time. So thanks for trying to ruin my post.

Not trying to ruin your post. Trying to make sure that potential customers see both sides prior to a transaction.
BTW just because you say something is healthy does not make it so. I trust the readers here to make that judgment for themselves after reading the thread I linked.
 
nobody is trying to ruin your post.
Lucille simply posted a link to the other thread so people could make as informed a decision as possible. It is important for people to know the good and the bad when considering a purchase from somebody.
I hope the snake does well for you, but even if you trust the person you are buying from, do not cut corners on the quarantine.
 
They could search the name. That didn't have to be linked to my post and I see it disrespectful to my post. This is a BOI. They see a good guy and can search for others. That post was a circus act. I read it myself and no one kept the story straight other than her. Then when asked for proof repeatedly he said it died at the last minute. Yea he's a real trust worthy person. Animals for it happens that doesn't mean negligence on the sellers part. Things happen. Even the best breeders experience deaths and such. So yea it was an intentional slap in the face to my good guy post to link that here when it could be searched for.
 
Ok so if just because I say the animal is healthy that doesn't make it so? Then that post doesn't have to be true just because he says its so. She asked for proof of sex long before anyone said she did and proof of that was posted but everyone ignored it. Then after Id say 50 comments asking for proof (photo proof) the animal was male and not female or which ever way it was he then says it died and blamed her after FIFTEEN MONTHS
 
It's generally prefered if people stick to one thread about a person, good OR bad and add their experiences. This enables potential buyers (and sellers) to make a well informed decision about who to do business with. Your posting a good guy thread when other threads already exist isn't against the rules, nor is it against the rules for links to be posted back to other threads. If you want to start discussing allegations made in the other thread, probably best to go back to that one.
 
Why? It was posted here. I think I have the right to discuss what was posted to MY thread. Also if your going to post ONE bad guy thread to mine why not get ALL the threads about her and no just the most recent thy fits your views
 
I was giving you helpful suggestions. If you want to bring up the other thread issues here, then go for it, people might not know what you are talking about though. You can add links to her other threads if you feel like it. In my opinion, you may want to slow your roll and calm down.
:shrug01:
 
Slow my roll? And calm down? I am calm. If asking questions upsets you and defending my point of view is what gets you upset there's something wrong. How about the members that personally attack others? Don't see you saying anything to them. In fact I don't see any admins saying anything to them. Like my good guy post about Richard delbono. Was personally attacked on here and facebook by bill zowak yet none of the admins said nothing. Seems like you let others slide and not others. I seeing why so many say they hate fauna. So many personal attacks happen on here and admins do nothing about it.
 
People post their opinions only to be attacked. I see it on a lot of threads just because they don't agree. People act like they're better than other people. And try to ruin their public image for their own satisfaction. And if I remember correctly that IS against the rules. But I don't see it enforced. I stopped coming here for a while because I couldn't say anything without being attacked by members who also used facebook. Bringing drama to my posts. I thought it was this forums goal to not allow people to be "scared away" from fauna yet it happens all the time.

You are correct.

She made two trades for two snakes. She received her two snakes just fine. She sent nothing in return for one of the snakes, and a misexed snake that died in return for the other.

Her story never waivered in that regard.
 
He CLAIMS it was mis sexed. Never provided proof. And when asked countless times for proof he finally says it died and kept that fact to himself until the very end. After 15 months in your care that is YOUR fault not the sellers so she has no obligation to replace that snake. Live arrival is guaranteed not a year or more.
