    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

08 CBB Ball Pythons-as low as $9.00!!!

Anyone seeing this ad will go directly to them. Why would a customer pay you a middleman cut?
 
No but I am waiting on another email from him to find out about that since the quantities and especially the pricing is a LOT lower that what he charges for CBB babies.
 
Bet they are CB or Captive born. But hey they could be CBB... wehn buying in large numbers the prices do fall.... My question is does Phil know he will be shipping these to a third party once the OP pays?
 
I've been in contact as well, Phil has given me permission to include the email exchange in this post ( he does specifically state they are CBB). To be fair, with the exception of Jacobs's poor choice of words at the beginning of his ad, it 'seems' like everything else he has stated to be true. I do think though that his business model needs some tweaking :rofl:

John,
NO ONE is acting as a broker for me or for my company. This individual called us late last night wanting 200-300 call pythons. I told him we had them, CBB, not bush babies. I gave him my price and then he called back and said no thank you. He then called again today and asked if they are CBB. I told him yes. Then he said he may have someone else that wants them. I pretty much thought it was a load of ...well you know. But again, I stress...NO ONE is working for us or on behalf of us. I thank you for bringing this to my attention. Did he actually say he is working for us??? We will be away for a show this weekend, but any thing else please feel free to
contact me via my cell phone, ***-***-**** or my email above. It will go directly to
my blackberry.
Thanks again,

That's good to know that they actually are CBB. Too many people misrepresenting animals (such as the recent het albinos, het pieds, het dreamsicle CH imports :rolleyes: ). When someone offers up a 100 lot of CBB BP's for $9 each, it sends up red flags because that is just a little more than what a 100 lot of CH would run you.
 
I viewed Phil's ad the other day. He wanted eight dollars on cbb lots of 100. He was also advertising w.c. in the same ad. My first thought was farmed babies as well. I was actually going to do a BOI inquiry on him about another ad I was interested in.
