    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....

I will have the following available for pick up only at NARBC Tinley Park October 13-14. By pick up only I mean I will not ship and I will not sell any before the show, they're all first come first served so get there early.

No holding for anyone no matter who you are, who you think you are or who you know.

All are cb 2018 being kept aquatic. You can find them at the Chicago Reptile House Booth.

Triturus dobrogicus (sexable) $25

Triturus macedonicus $35

Triturus karelinii $30

Neurergus crocatus $50

Lissotriton vulgaris $25

Pleurodeles waltl (normal/possible het white) $20

Hypselotriton cyanurus $20

All axolotls are $10 each, 4-7 inches long and some are sexable. I'll have the following color morphs with me:
Wild type
Melanoid
Axanthic

GFP Leucistic
White albino
GFP white albino

My friend asked me to post the following for him. They will also be at the Chicago Reptile House booth. Just look for some guys with a bunch of amphibians.

CB 2018 Australian Earless Dragons sexable $1000 pair
(Tympanocryptis tetraporophora) $1250 trio

Hi Axolotyl Jake,

Please put me on your waiting list for 3 yellow spotted newt after the show if you have any left? I, usually, go to the Reptile Expo here in White Plains or Long island, New York. It would be great to see more newts there, in general.

Good luck with the show!
 
I couldn't find you at the show Jake. Id really love some gfp axolotls. PM me if there's any chance I could still pickup. Thanks!!!! :)
 
is that you???

Hi Axolotyl Jake,

I PM'ed you this message 10-18-2018, 10:21 PM. Is that you???

Have we spoken? Allow me to explain...

I got an email from Chris Luckett museum [email protected] about yellow spotted newts.

I was told to pay $155 to PayPal to a [email protected]

I was called from 714-882-1330 to confirm the order.

So I paid $155 to a Duncan Romero.

Now that I have told you this story I feel ashamed and embarrassed.

Sincerely,
Bismarck

P.S. I attached this receipt as proof that I received no reply after the kindest voicemail, emails, and text... and no newts, sadly.

I wish I knew what to do...

I wish I knew what to do... I thought we are all just newt enthusiasts.

Bismarck1, this doesn't look good.
You should start a new thread on BOI to warn others.
 
Bismark1, why exactly are you posting this on Jake's classified ad? This has nothing at all to do with Jake, as far as I can tell.

Hi Bismark1,

I don't think we've spoken. I'm not involved in the transaction you posted and I'm a little confused as to why you posted it on my thread. If you read my original post I think I made it quite clear that I had no plans to sell any outside of the show or do any shipping.
