    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 John Buhs, Brownsville, TX...SCAMMER?!?!?

So you have pics that you sent out of other peoples anacondas, but none of your own from your personal collection? 7 hours away from Brownsville, Texas would only put you just a bit north of Austin, Texas. That’s no where near a desert my man. People have been asking you for pictures of the pied hatchlings you posted up for $250, and you haven’t been able to provide anyone with any pics of those either. Nothing seems right about you or anything you’re advertising. None of my buddies from the Brownsville area who are reptile collectors have even heard of you. That’s odd.

John did your wife send incorrect pictures out to buyers looking for the other species you are selling, or was it just the anacondas?

I will say it again. Im nowhere near my house to take pictures. Its not simple when im 7 hours out in the middle of the desert. Thats 1 reason for getting rid of sone of the animals. Accept it or dont. Your choice. You can wait until i get home. Then i can show some of my personal collection just to make you feel good about yourself.

You were asked this, by TLMoon on 2-16-18 at 10:00PM EDT:

Now, since the issue seems to be that you are accused of selling snakes you don't have...why don't you go RIGHT NOW and take some pics with your snakes? Write your name and date on a piece of paper and shoot some pics. I think 25 anacondas would take up a pretty good amount of room. How about posting your snake room/setup? It would put that question to rest pretty quickly if you can show you have all these snakes.

You claim to be out in the middle of the desert, which has wifi and/or data? Were you out there at 11:44 PM EDT last night?

Or are you just going to insult the BOI more because you don't like the fact that people are asking relevant questions that you obviously don't want to answer?
 
I think it seems to be his game to promise to do something in the future.

It was going to be months before he was going to 'give' (for $50) the anaconda to Samantha, I don't think that was ever going to happen, it was just tossed her way to hush her up. Now, excuses that the photos can't be posted, and I have no doubt that when the time comes and he gets home, he will fly off in a huff or something else to prevent any real evidence from being posted.
 
tlmoon said:
Dean, did you get as far as what the payment method would have been? Another trick is wanting the payment in some form where they buyer would have no recourse when the snakes never arrived. Was John wanting a money order or paypal friends or anything?

No! We had one conversation...which I will post in its entirety...the photos were real slow to download and by the time they did and I realized that Samantha's photos were in the mix...I put an end to the conversation...telling him I'd get back to him the next morning! But method of payment never came up...only price negotiation!
 
I have an LG android...anyone wanna tell me how to transfer screenshots from my phone so I can post them here...without using TAP

Once again, you came to a public forum that discusses these types of situations. If you aren’t a scammer , at the very least your business practices are shady to say the least. Can you not see how people would think that?

^ This right here. If it was me and I was being as he says in his own words “slandered” , I’d want to make those speaking of me look like fools as fast as possible and clear my name. We all know whether you are a buyer or seller, in reptiles your name is important, and once it becomes synonymous with something like this that could easily be taken care of by getting a relative or friend to take the pics with the date, kinda scars people from wanting to deal with you in the future ...

I think you mean, when you have time to find other pics online to try to pass them off as your own. Lol. Provide proof buddy. The truth shall set you free. Typical scammer with all the excuses!

Who’s trying to get involved with your personal life? You get on a “public” forum to try to sell animals you obviously don’t own, or shall I say you come onto a “public” forum (public classifieds ad page) and try to scam people and expect not to get called out on it. You should’ve done your research about this page before you jumped on here trying to run your scam. A lot of people on here are good at picking up the scent of a dead rat!!

Resorting to passive aggressive threats already? You shouldn't have posted on this forum if you can't take the blow back from legitimate questions people have.
 
Im not threatening. Its ridiculous to provoke people over trivial stuff with smart ass comments. Opinions are like ass holes. Everyone has them. And id suspect that you think its just ok to talk shit and provoke someone right? How about this, get on to the people coming at me with fumb ass comments trying to start shit. If you have a "legitimate" question. Fine. But save the smart ass comments.
