    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.

    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 did a trade today with Randy and am pleased with the animals I received from him. I traded offspring for more breeding stock which amounts to less mouths to feed! :dancer01:

I wanted to post and give Randy Ellis @ "Reptile Locators" not one, but two thumbs up. I traded him for a flawless group (3.2) CB young adult West African Gaboon Vipers. They are a fine addition to my existing colony, and this is EXACTLY what I needed! I'm so pumped! They are all exhibit quality animals, and that is exactly where they are going! On exhibit! There isn't a flaw in any animal. Every scale is in it's place.

You ROCK, Randy! Because I am so happy w/ them, I am going to give you an additional $100 credit towards any of my inventory or offspring. Thank you for treating me the way every herper wants to be treated.

Im done...I'm gonna go look at my gabs. Peace!

Randy is a great guy and really goes out of his way to make sure deals go right.
 
A+ In My Book

Randy's a great guy who stands behind his animals. He has awesome communication, and he is a man of his word.

Highly recommended by myself.

Number 1 in my book!!

Let me start this story off like this... In July of 2004 i found a outstanding looking femal Ball Python on here and got in contact with Randy and we made the deal. 2 months later i moved here to San Antonio and found another female ball online and guess what Randy had it. I met Randy here in San Antonio after he drove 4 Hours to sell me a 100 dollar snake. Anybody that goes out of there way for you and delivers a top notch looking normal ball is the one i will always do business with. One of the nicest people i have ever met in my life. So out of the deal i got a great looking snake and a great new friend. Thanks Randy
 
I did a deal with Randy a while ago. Without going into details, I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to keep my end of it - but Randy was more than patient and fair and I'd be happy to do business with him again any time.

I also would like to thank Randy

I won one of the auctions in the Fauna Fund that Randy put up to help support this site. All went well.

Thanks Randy for the five-piece probe set and you’re donation to Fauna.
 
Hmm Randy well ummm what can I say............. He's an awesome guy to deal with when I started buying all the Ball Pythons that I could house he was one of my go to guys. Never did any business with him and he sent me the animals and the rest is history we still do business till this day right RANDY come'on I know you can get more :)

By the way his wife kat is great to deal with also. Thanks again guys
 
I found Randy to be a stand up guy and will continue to do business with him. He honestly represents his animals and stands behind them.
 
I have delt with Randy twice, both times were trades, both times he treated me fairly and with respect. I meet him at his house and he was more than willing to show me his entire collection. Both trades were very smoothley handled, I was the initiator in both trades and both times I got more than I expected for what I offered (read: the value of what I recieved was greater than the value of what I offered). In my experience Randy is a great guy and I would be more than willing to do business with him again.
 
Man, from the sounds of it. This certainly is a differnt randy from the "other" thread. So he's great to buy from.But from I can understand, If you sell to him " beware' ?
