Has anyone done business with or had any contact with Matt Oakley / Next Generation Morphs recently? I am getting no response from him on a purchase that I made and need shipped to me.

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.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!! About the Google Adsense ads being displayed

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 have tried that phone #. He appears to have fallen off the face of the Earth with my $1,200.00. I am sure that their are several other people out $ to him. His BOI postings are a mixed bag of good and bad. If anyone knows him, or how to get a hold of him so that he will respond, I would appreciate hearing from you.

Really?
Tom is out $1200 and the guy has stopped communicating?
Pretty sure that is what I would describe as "serious issues!"

I paid $1,200.00 for a super black pastel het for pied female. He will not respond to phone calls, texts, emails or facebook posts. His account has been suspended on another website. I have been extremely pleasant in all of my contacts. Zero response. His past history shows both glowing reviews and not so glowing reviews. I have not turned this into a bad guy post yet because I don't know why he has not responded. If someone knows him and can let me know what they think is happening with his disappearing act, that would be great.

Thanks, I really appreciate it. Sometimes things happen that can be resolved with communication from someone that knows the person involved.

Unfortunately I was really stupid and trusted him. He said that he had a lot of references. I sent him the full amount and I do not have any way to retrieve the $.

Man this sucks I really thought he was one of the good guys in this industry let's be honest we all have our phones in our hands most of the day it doesn't take more than a second to return someone's text or call especially a customer who spent $1,200 with you

That John is so true, even us older duffers have caught up with tech and get alerts that there is an email here, a message on fb etc etc.
I guess there are still some flat earthers out there but it is VERY far and few between and anybody who is doing serious business is not going to be one of them!
In todays interconnected world there is very little in the way of excuses for not being aware of problems.

Couldn't of said it better you're absolutely right if somebody doesn't want to talk to you it's because simply they don't want to talk to you I hope you figure this out I'll try my best to get ahold of him I already messaged him got no response

Herp FREAK!!!
I wouldn’t have seen this at all but a few reptile friends made me aware. Honestly, I’ve just been going through an overwhelming amount things for the past few months; single parenthood, filing for full custody, moving, a promotion, a 3 hour round trip work commute and more. I haven’t been on social media and don’t plan to be for a while.
In the past decade I’ve produced/sold thousands of snakes, literally spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in this hobby, and produced upwards of 20 world’s 1st. I’ve dedicated a third of my life to the hobby and am not one of these guys just in it for the money. I’ve made tons of friends and do have an outstanding amount of positive reference which I’m always willing to provide when someone purchases from me. I’m definitely not someone who would steal someone’s money or not attempt to fix any problem.
I didn’t plan on this payment plan taking 5 months to complete as the full balance still hadn’t been paid. I already refunded ALL of Tom’s money which included the 25% nonrefundable deposit which were all sent via Paypal friends and family. I don’t know how long the process takes with Paypal/the bank. I’m very sorry for any inconvenience, Tom.
I won’t be back on here continuing this convo.

Without any communication, your buyer didn't know what to think. Kudos to him for not making a Bad Guy post on you until the facts emerged. It sounds as if you have a lot on your plate. But if in the future you find that you are getting overwhelmed, step back and don't initiate transactions that you are unable to give your attention to. Here, it would have taken just a few minute to email your buyer but you did not do that.
Hopefully Tom will receive his refund soon. I think neither party should send/accept Friends/Family payments to PayPal unless they are friends or family.
