    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....

(inquiry) Rick Denmon @ Ball Boutique

You are right about me sending a snake with mites, when I found out about it I immediately sent a can of provent a mite and apologized. the person had the snake quarantined and the PAM quickly resolved the problem. I had to rethink about the way I was doing things and have made changes.

Wow, that's a pretty big statement coming from someone who lies as much as you, Ed. BTW, are you ever going to apologize on that other forum for lying and trying to hurt the reputation of the forum staff?

And Ed, aren't you also the person that sent someone a mite infested snake and tried to smooth it over by telling the person it was "the gift that keeps on giving"? Pathetic. :NoNo:

This is rich... one lying, unethical flipper complaining about another.

I have to admit that it was "nice" of you to make things right... eventually.

Which makes me wonder why you're not so nice when sending me PMs?

Threats? Profanity? I guess your true character is finally coming out. BTW, I know exactly what is going on at BP.Net... it's just too bad your cheerleaders are too blind to see it.

Well, it seems I'm not the only one that Ed likes to threaten with violence. Sounds like this is going to get split into another thread.
 
Larry, do you have permission to talk about the way so many people are treated there, Judy stated she did not want me to talk about it on another site and I will respect that. :yesnod: Sorry about the off topic post. :>off_to<:

So talk about it on that site. We don't edit or delete any posts as long as they're kept clean. Or feel free to PM me if you can refrain from threats and profanity.
 
Ed,

Is that actually what you sent in your PM today? Simple yes or no question.
 
This topic is not about Ed Clark. It is about Rick Denmon. If some of you have a problem with Ed, then please have your discussion in another topic. If you feel the need to post a link from this topic to that other (given the discussion that has already taken place), then please feel free. Otherwise, let's not allow this topic to be taken off course any further. Thanks.

Everything on my web site I purchased or produced.

[QUOTEBallBoutique]The big list was added at a later date. But you all knew that. And no the eggs were not shipped to me......that was a funny statement to me

All animal photos on my site belong to me or sold to a customer. All photos of animals for sale belong to me. Once animals are paid for they will be shipped and no longer MINE.[/QUOTE]

So....in other words, your original answer when questioned about whether the animals on your "presale" list were yours was just another dodge to avoid saying, "The animals on my website are mine, BUT THE ANIMALS ON MY PRESALE LIST HERE BELONG TO JOE CAPONE"?

I was waiting for you to say it yourself, but apparently, for some reason, you just can't come out and give a simple answer. We all know he wouldn't have shipped you any eggs.....especially eggs not even laid yet..... :rolleyes:
 
Rick, just to help clear this up for me, are you saying that you are buying from Joe Capone because his animals are top quality and that Petes, Ians and Jeffs are not, or do you mean that those 3 will not sell to you? :confused:
BallBoutique said:
So Ed I guess I should buy from Ian and Pete and JY for resale? Nothing wrong with this. I am selling a few animals with a person who has clashed verbally with people....his animals are top quality. That is why I buy from him!
And yet you go to the import bins and pay $10.00 for imports and try to scam new folks into paying $100.00 - $400.00 for normals. Now justify that.

I would assume it's because Pete, Ian, and Jeff can sell their own animals and don't HAVE to find someone like Rick to do it for them, Ed. :shrug01:
 
Scam Huh, the word scam would be better applied to your associate Joe Capone and Mojave Morphs. Wouldn't you agree with that?

Wrong my friend.
I bought from all them!
Yep 25 k for 2.2 het pied from Pete.
Het albinos and pastel from Ian.
Flipped het albinos from JY
 
I think that it's abundantly clear that Rick has something to hide here. It seems to me that he knows that if the true association between him and Joe Capone were public knowledge that it would seriously hurt his ability to sell Joe's snakes. In light of that fact, he has chosen to evade questions, and answer in half truths.

Personally, I don't have an issue with Rick or his track record in the industry, but I DO have an issue with the way that Joe has chosen to do business. My choice is not to do business with Joe Capone or any of his partners.

Sorry Rick, but there's an old saying that "people will judge you by the company you keep." You chose Joe as a business partner...that was a poor choice.

Jay, also the fact that he has lied to everyone here from the start. I agree, too many breeders to buy from people that can not be honest, regardless of the so called great deals!!

What do I have to hide?
I don't get it.
Does it matter if I purchase animals from Ian, JY, Pete, Ralph or Joe or even you to resell. I do not sell import normals that are over priced like Ed to folks that do not know the TRUE value. Yet I am being bashed.
I must openly say the following. NO ONE HAS BEEN DISSATISFIED WITH THE PURCHASE OF MY ANIMALS NOR JOE'S ANIMALS....PERIOD
FIND ONE PLEASE. THIS IS A BASHING THREAD WITH NO SUBSTANCE. They hate Joe so I am a bad guy. Both Joe, Wes, Tracy and Dave and myself do NOT misrepresent our animals. I would rather be in VPI's camp any day than those bashing me.
BTW congrats to the old MKR and VPI for those awesome clutches of LA's
I have no problems with folks who want to pay more for there animals....It is their choice!
To me this is about a few disgruntled folks from another forum. Nothing to do with what this BOI is all about.
I have received support via emails and phone calls and sales has gone up too because of my business practices from before and now.
So the folks will know were to shop for great prices and quality animals.
No normals here for $400.00!

Thanks,
