    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....

My Recommendation

I am yet to go through a deal with Adam, and I have spoken with Adam via telephone and our e-mail communication has been nothing but pleasant. In my personal opinion, I am judging by his character and what I know is he is a very knowledgable guy, and I am sure he's trustworthy. If you've read prior postings, he seems to be very verbal when it comes to issues he disagrees with, sometimes he bites his tongue and gets himself warned however, this is in no way relevant to judge the quality care of his reptiles. Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion, and Adam certainly practices that right at every given chance, I see no wrong in doing so. I have been satisfied with our level of communication and he has gone the extra mile of giving me a call in regards to the quality care of venomous and non-venomous reptiles we both keep. He's one heck of a guy! He has my business any time.
 
I will say that Adam handled his reply here quite professionally.

I do not have experience buying from Adam, so judge my experience accordingly.
 
customers names and emails???

I have never bought anything from or sold anything to Adam but I find myself compelled to write this.

I did a search on the names adam posted to check and found the following:

"RobRoy" - Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms

Tenessee_jed - Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms

[email protected] - Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms

If these are the login names for someone they aren't for this site. also it is never a good idea to give out people email addresses on open forum because that leaves them open to Spam and spyware and such. The better business practice is "please contact me for references". or " check my trader rating" or "check my site for customer feedback" or " tell me how I can make you comfortable making this transaction". maybe using a escrow account. there are a lot of ways to build up your reputation without throwing past customers at perspective customers. After you are establioshed people won't ask you to go out of your way to prove yourself, so its well worth the trouble in the begining.

Just trying to help you out Adam because maybe I will want to buy something from you or sell you something in the future. You seem to be off to a good start with your honesty so keep it up because everyones watching.

look there email address not log in names i forgot to put rob roys email address. the question to this site was has anybody done business with me not can anybody screw this person over as much as they can ok leave me the hell alone. and shawn look you buy the milks and you find out for your self whether im trustworthy or not if im not then post a threat about me ok.




stupid damn people always medeling in everybody elses affairs
 
not trying to screw you..

Adam,
Believe it or not I wasn't trying to screw you. I was trying to give you a few helpful hints to guide you in the right direction. No one likes to see people succeed more then myself. If you click on my user name and then check on every single post I have ever made you will see that i never put people down unless they are one of the "bearded pets" of the world, in which case they really deserve it. I use Fauna not only to learn about other peoples business practices by get insight on how people deal with each other, and every so often try to pass what I have learned in the business on to someone else. I am sure there are things that you know that I don't and I would be more than willing to take any advice or tips from you that might benefit me or my reptiles. The more we work together and learn from one another the better off we will all be.

david, i read that post..

David, I read that post that you left the link for and don't understand why you would fault adam for that. He was selling a animal as it was sold to him. He even stated that to you homestly. So if he is honest then whats the problem. If he was trying to lie just to make a sell then i would understand discrediting him but he wasn't. I don't understan the 40% + 40% + 20% thing as well. I see his point about people wanting to jump on others quickly.


Nick Bonn
 
Ok everybody i may not be the easiest person to deal with, but only when youve done something to piss me off. my personalty is not relivent to my reptiles in the slightest so everybody can just stop linking the two, i try my best to keep my reptiles in the best of condition if i cant then i will ask for help and that animal would not be put up for sale. i would not knowingly lie to anybody about any certian reptile or any other animal that i am selling. if you people think i am lieing to you then just dont buy anything from me its that simple. i am trying to establish a reputation but i have to say you people make it very hard. and there is absolutly no point to what you people do. for everybodies future refrance just leave me the **** alone got it. buy my animals or not i dont give a ****. i sell only high quality animals to those that dont liek it eat ****. thank you have a nice day

The "truth" wasn't posted until the questions were asked. It's just another person selling something that they don't what they have. The post probably should have stated in the first place that he bought it and the information listed was what he was provided with, instead of misrepresenting the animal due to ignorance of the animals origin.

GROW UP :raspberry .

Adam,

Since a buyer or seller would have to deal with your personality to conclude a business transaction it is very much relevant to the inquiry. Unless you are producing very unique reptiles (can't find them anywhere types) then there will be competition out there providing the same specimens, and I'd personally go with a person that's easy to work with over someone that tends to throw an attitude out there as easily as you do.
 
im not going to waist my time putting that crap on there if some body is interested then they will email me and ask so in the future mind your own damn business. you stick to your life and i will stick to mine, i did not lie in any way i did not misrepresent anything i was told it was 40 40 20 it has the look of all three that i stated in the post there for it is a 40 40 20. the dealer i bought it from i have been doing business with for a long time and has never once lied to me there for i have no reason to think it is any thing other than 40 40 20. now go about your business. and how about you email me and ill send you a pic of the damn thing and you can make your judgments ok
 
i dont throu attitude out just when ever if you were to talk to me in a good decent fasion then i would do the same if it was to deal with an unhappy customer then i would deal with it professionaly but none of you are doing either of those so you get my bad side. and dand or whatever the thing is i am grown up the rest of you are not that is why you people presist on giving me a hard time just becuase i want to sell some damn reptiles. now give it a rest.
like i said before my reptiles are nothing but high quality are always eating and are always in good health when i sell them if they werent then i would not sell them i am not a crook and i have never had the intentions of being so. and also again if you dont like me then simply dont buy from me.

and i did word that wrong i am very easy to get along with just stay on my good side thats all now every body have a nice day
 
you people post what you want im done with this thread and all future threads i am no longer going to participate in any of the BOI threads. any questions about any reptiles i have for sale or if you just have any questions about the way i do business then please feel free to email me any time at [email protected] thank you

Adam, This statement implies everyones giving you a hard time. I did nothing but try to help you on this thread, and was giving you the benifit of the doubt. As far as I am concerned I haven't seen any posts here by people that have been burned by you so that is the 1st good thing for you. On the thread that dan posted you told the truth, thats the 2nd good thing for you. but dont ruin it with statements like.

Try to keep a level head when dealing with people no matter how upset you get, it is part of good customer service and a good company image. If and when you complete some good transactions ask them to post thier experience with you on the B.O.I. so you can vindicate yourself.

" Can't we all just get along?".... I know that was from a movie I just don't remember which one.:eatsmiley
