    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....

The pictures are mine. The snake in the pictures was sold to him on 9/24/2003. It's a 2003 animal, weight between 350 grams-375 grams. It's NOT 2002, breedable male.
If you are so interested in this male, consider this is a kindly head up. Don't get rip-off by this guy. I already emailed him, and kindly suggested him to take the ad off, or I'll file a complaint with the website he advertised.
 
Go ahead and report him.
It is obvious it was not some kind of mistake.
If he really had a bigger male pastel and he is selling that one because he does not need it.......why did he buy it about 10 days ago
 
Looks like the scum are really coming out of the wood work huh? I spent $40k this year and everything went fine, I bought from Jeremy Stone, Sutherlands, CV Exotics, etc and all went well. The first deal I do with some no-name I get screwed again.
I learned my lesson, again! lol
Thanks for the heads up on this new scammer.

I responded to that add as well as another that "Damien" had. The other was for a gravid red-tail that he was interested in trading for ball pythons. The reason I responded to this add is because I thought it was set up similar to Mike Marshall, the guy who scammed Jeff and I. I was surprised when it didn't come back registered to Mike, but instead "Damien". The add was set up the same as Mikes, always stating "Ship in the USA" or "Ship nation wide", rarely giving a city and state. See Jeffs thread on Happy Herps. If you sent to Tenn. then it's the same guy....Tony
 
You know,
This really makes me mad.

Someone once said do not post on a bad guy thread that does not concer you.

Well in my opinion.......bad guys concern all of us.

Take Jeff here for example. (and a million others like him)
Thanks to the bad guys. He and a million others will no longer buy from no names. And I do not balme him one bit.

But the honest no name people get ripped off indirectly by the no name scamers.


Like I always say. My honest guy competition are NOT competition. They are friends.

Me and my honest guy "competition" have the same kind of snakes for sale.
So a guy buys from my "competition". Do I lose a sale? NO. Because my "competition" will have treated him or her real good. And that guy will continue to buy from the internet and no names like me in the future. So basically thanks to my honest guy "competition"/ friend I got a future customer

My only real competition are the bad guys. If that same guy buys from the bad guy......not only do I lose present sale because they bought off him instead. I also lose future sales because that guy will get ripped and never ever again buy from no names. So I lose present and future customers.


Bad guys are bad for EVERYONE.
 
excellent point!

"Like I always say. My honest guy competition are NOT competition. They are friends."

I agree! The good guys in this "business" help each other out, and the bad guys often scare potential customers away for good. When I was scammed out of thousands in '95, I walked away from the reptile industry for a couple of years.

WELL I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET SCREWED BY THIS GUY. I WATCH WHAT IS BEING SOLD AND I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH WHAT THIS GUY WAS SELLING. IT SHOULDNT BE THE NO NAME PEOPLE YOU SHOULD BE WORRYING ABOUT ITS THE PEOPLE THAT CANT GIVE VERIFIABLE INFO ON THEMSELVES YOU HAVE TO BE WORRIED ABOUT. IF ITS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE WELL YOU ALL KNOW THE REST OF THAT ONE. JUST REMEMBER WHEN YOU TREAT A PERSON GOOD THEY TELL 10 PEOPLE BUT WHEN YOU SCREW SOMEBODY OVER THEY TELL 100 PEOPLE SO TELL ANYONE YOU CAN BECAUSE ITS THE PEOPLE THAT ARE OUT FOR THE QUICK SCREW THAT ARE RUINING THIS FORUM OF THE SALE OF REPTILES ONLINE. AND THE SAD PART IS THAT THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE SELLING STUFF RIGHT NOW AND YOU WILL NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN ONCE IT IS TIME FOR THEM TO STAND BEHIND WHAT THEY SELL. AND THAT REALLY SUCKS. SO THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP ON THIS CLOWN AND I REALLY HOPE NOONE ELSE GETS THE SHAFT BY THIS GUY BUT THE SAD THING IS THEY PROBABLLY WILL. ALL I CAN SAY IS KEEP SPREADING THE WORD.

Ritchie I would bet money it was I who said that but it's taken out of context in your post.

I meant it towards the people who speculate as to what's going on in a transaction without all the facts. The people who know neither of the parties involved but still insist in giving their $0.02 on the deal. Those who take sides without the facts because the trend seems to be going in that direction.

People who can't spell well get scammed like the rest of us do. My quote was meant to keep those verbally challenged people from being scammed by the articulate because the scammer comes off well. You would have to be blind to not see posts like that.

Like the Carlos Lahitte thread where I'd bet $50,000 he was a victim but due to his poor English was made to feel like he was in the wrong while Don's actions were seemingly acceptable to the majority of the BOI because he wrote well.

In this case, if you know of a scam, by all means, spill your guts and let the world know.

Sorry I did not mean to insinuate anything. I honestly do not remember who said that. Actually I think a couple people have said that.

Damien,
So you read this post! You lied, and you still lie. All information was provided to you via e-mail. A picture of him on the scale also emailed to you, and it's not 500 g+. Come on! You spent A COUPLE THOUSAND DOLLARS (yeah right!) without getting any information??? And for your record, my hets are back-up with paper work from original breeder, if available, and guarantee by myself. I wonder if yours is. All of your emails were answered. If you don't email me, don't expect an answer. You have my email address, so if you want to get in touch via email, then email me. If you like to get in touch by posting on website, here I am. Also, I am waiting for you to repost him as you stated in your email, with a picture that he locked up with your female.;)
 
BALL MORPHS AND MORE

JOHN,

I APOLIGIZED FOR USING YOUR PICS AND REMOVED THE AD AS SOON AS YOU TOLD ME I WAS MISS REPERSENTING THE PASTEL MALE. WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT FROM ME. BY THE WAY HE WEIGHT OVER 600g AND I HAVE NOT SEEN TO MANY JUNE 03 BALL PYTHONS PUT THAT MUCH WEIGHT ON SO QUICK. I WILL TAKE A PIC OF HIM ON THE SCALES ANY DAY.

GOD BLESS

Let me get this straight.

Ball Morphs and More bought a 358 gram pastel. On 9/24/03

10/5/03 the ball python weighed over 600grams and locked up with a female.

How can a ball python gain that much weight in just 12 days?

Sounds like Ball Morphs and more is doing some lying.
 
This guy is also known as CHRIS TAYLOR.He has burned me on a sunglow and Mcfly on several lipsticks boas.
I thought i was done with seeing this guy on here until i just looked at the posting.
Can anyone tell me how to get deleated emails back from my pc and the pm's that get posted on here and i can prove they are the same guys!!!
He built me a web site and his web site was Taylor made morphs and had me looking at all his boa's.He closed the web site before i could set my own password.
Maybe i should have waited but i know its him!
If i can get the deleated info i can prove this!!
