    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 ordered a female viper boa from Dan. It arrived on time at my residence. It was shipped in correct packaging and with a good heat pad. The animal is what he advertized it as, and was very alert when i took it out of the box.

my experince was extremely good, thanks Dan!

DTS deals in boids? :shrug01: Good luck, Jonathan. I hope she stays healthy long into the future. Perhaps post an update when she gets out of quarantine so we know how she's settled in.
 
I'm new here as well, but I've been lurking awhile. I'm noticing that happening a lot. It's really hard to put faith in Good Guy threads when I come here, seeing all this junk going on. Either it's him or a friend making alt's constantly, or he's calling everyone he knows telling them to help him earn back a good name?

I dunno, but it's really getting hard to make an informed decision. I'm really only reading posts from people that appear to have been on here for a long time and have good rep themselves.
 
Richard,

Sometimes that is all you can do. I'm sure Dan has customers that are well satisfied; you always remember the bad things first.

Hopefully the "bad guy" threads don't put you off from buying on-line completely. I have done 100% of my purchases on-line and (knock on wood) I haven't had a single bad deal...BUT I am extremely picky about who I order from. Be selective and you should do well.
 
Cathy:

Are you still upset that you've never proven one of your false accusations correct? Are you still furious that I have proven you wrong on many threads? Why not just accept the fact that you lost and bow your head and apologize for being a witch? I mean everyone here thinks you are a witch, so after thousands of your rambling posts and idiotic guess-work, you have achieved nada.

As you know, there is nothing you can do to harm my companies fine reputation and stellar record of thousands of sales and not a single legitimate complaint. All you listed was bogus drivel from scammers who threatened to bully for more than the terms of sale despite I made offers ABOVE and BEYOND the terms of sale. Heck, your desire should be to carry me on your shoulders for being such a fine reptiles salesman. I've never had a single legitimate complaint in thousands of sales and you cannot prove one complaint as legit and that is the source of your pain.

So why not stop being a nasty hag? Smile and get a life. I smile when I see your nasty posts as I know you are still nasty and have not matured.
 
Dan, you're such an attention whore.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Richard,

Don't be discouraged. While the BOI usually seems to be filled with "bad guys", that's unfortunately just what more people take the time to post about as opposed to a great transaction. There's still far more good, honest sellers out there than there is scum like Dan! If you don't find the feedback you want on a seller, post an "inquiry" of your own, and go from there. Just reading around here and other forums can give you a good idea on whose opinion/experience you can trust, and whose to take with a grain of salt.

I've been burned once (TSE fiasco, along with a lot of other good folks), but have done a whole lot of online purchasing, I believe the overall odds to be pretty much in your favor, as long as you take the time to do a bit of research beforehand.

Best of luck to you. :)
 
Cathy:

You call me an attention whore when you have almost 7000 posts and have proven nothing besides you're are a loud mouth hag.

And stop breaking my back with laughter and wash your mouth with soap as your nasty language does not impress anyone. You mention scum all the time like you came from the gutter or detention facility, so clean up your act.
 
To the OP, please refresh yourself with the rules prior to posting. We don't need yet another thread dedicated to the topic of Dan Scolaro, as there is already more than enough space wasted on it. People need to start utilizing the existing current threads.

Please utilize the SEARCH function as much as possible before starting a new thread (topic line). In many instances, it is much better to continue an existing thread rather than starting a new one in order to preserve continuity in the information about a person or business. Most readers are much more inclined to read a single long thread, rather than dozens of smaller ones scattered all over the BOI. So don't let your message get lost in the clutter by ignoring this simple rule.

Thanks for the advice guys.

Yeah, I've had pretty good luck ordering online. Het for Pied I ordered from Alan Bosch 2 years ago is still doing great. Some savannahs I purchased a couple months later were in great health and exactly as described as well. I actually found out about this site because of a bad deal. I researched AFTER the fact, and learned my lesson the hard way. Ordered a "het for pied female" from CRE a few months after I got the male from Alan. She was covered in mites and runny stool. Got her fixed up though, and she's thriving now, but I seriously doubt she's a het, after all the info I've found out about CRE.

I'll definitely still be ordering and bartering online, but I'm glad I found this site so I can make more informed decisions. As I said though, with all these sketchy new threads, I'll be taking those with a grain of salt, and listening to the "wolf pack" and other members who've been on here for some time.

Thanks for a great board! :)

Dan... in pretty much every post you make.... you are all about name calling.... why is that?

Scumbag Rule #2) Call everyone who disagrees with you names (even if they agree with you but you cannot figure that out).
 
Kevin:

When did I ever call someone a name?

I simply described the person accurately and was quite reserved and professional. I have seen some comments from folks who intentionally set out to ignore the facts that I met the terms of the sale and went ABOVE and BEYOND the terms of the sale. And they think the general reader will overlook their ignorance? LOL. And then they attack with idiotic comments and stupid questions for no good reason besides to knock someone to make them look good or to support their idiotic buddies here for points.

As for those folks, I termed them idiots. So I only did them a favor as they already knew they were stupid as does their peers. So sue me for being honest and accurate.

Like in your case. You admit to not have read the threads accurately but came here to make a worthless comment which was dumb on your part. So guess what I would call your contribution?

How about spending your time wisely. Can you find any sale that I did not meet the terms of sale and offered up something above and beyond the terms? No. Those few deals were from scammers. So if you cannot find anything to justify your negative approach to the few scammers who threatened for more than the terms, then why open your mouth in the first place. If you are a professional as you claim, then you can not go to a forum and shout out something silly without providing any proof. I mean they allow that in kindergarden, but not on an adult forum.
 
When have you NOT reverted to name calling and mud slinging.

and you still stuck on one thing... .just like an old 45 record... you keep skipping back to the same section

MY POINT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE SAME.... I WILL NOT BUY FROM YOU BECAUSE OF HOW YOU ACT ON HERE. I dont need to read every thread to make that assesment.

Clear enough!!

You answered your own question.
 
Junk: When are you ever going to present any information besides junk and name calling? Prove your idiotic slander? Prove it or tuck your tail and hide like your buddies.

Wolf: You got it wrong again. You don't have a dime I would accept for my fine reptiles. I don't sell to morons.

Dan, what slander? I am telling the truth about you. I see you as a scumbag, you revert to name calling as soon as someone disagrees with you. You asked when have you called any one names, then answered your own question in the same breath. "Idiots", "moron", "stupid"...

Jonathan, good luck with your viper boa.
