    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....

Allen Belcher / Big Daddy's Wholesale ... WARNING

Big daddy boas

so i emailed the guy from big daddy boas and let him know we were talking about him here and if he had any affiliation with allen. I also sent him an email from my girlfirends email and he mailed me back with a name a phone number and a reference, hopefully he does not get mad that i did that, i was just worried about the effect we might pose on his business. So with that said i hope he comes and clears himself. I will not release his name and info, i will let him do that himself if he wishes.

I can't believe they moved the IBD thread into this one. Seems strange seeing how important the IBD issue is to just bury it in another thread. There are a number of people with multiple threads about them why merge this one? Randy
It's quite simple really. I had two choices with that thread. Delete it out right for not having a name in the thread title or merge it into an already existing thread. I recognized the importance of the IBD issue. That is why it did not get deleted. I guess next time I will just delete all threads that violate the rules.

Inconsistency is fairly consistent here, and one MUST retain consistency, even if doing so is inconsistent, as it is here.

Personally, I think the merge was a mistake and am hopeful that others will share this thought and separate the threads again.

I hope to one day see a pig fly too.
Can someone pass me that plate of crow please? It seems I went off halfcocked here and made a boo boo. This time it had nothing to do with the consistently inconsistent enforcement here and instead dealt with a flat out violation of the title rule which is one of the most important rules which I somehow mangaged to overlook when I posted my quip above.

Sorry guys, my bad.

This time.

I apologize, Dennis.

It seems that oftentimes, I see that there is a warning posted on the non-compliant thread, it is locked, and a time frame is given to correct the error by starting a new and correctly titled thread before deletion of the other. I didn't see that, and I jumped the gun as well. I owe you a BIG apology. :(
 
so now i know where that dollar came from

is it really necessary to decieve me about buying snakes just so you can get my paypal address? That is how the paypal address was acquired, pretending to want to purchase animals. All you have to do is ask, we are not in high school anymore. Anyways, I am in no way affiliated with big daddy wholesale, sorry for any confusion. have a nice day

With the name being so close and the other guy using it being such a lying scumbag, it is reasonable that Dennis sluethed as he did.

No one knew for sure that you were not alan.

Now we do and, if anything, you should be appreciative that you will not be further associated with him here on the BOI.
 
While I do understand Dane's anger Would it not of been better to run an IP address ??? he has posted a few times on fauna, Sorry Dane But I have to agree with Wes, With everything going on with the other Big Daddy maybe that is why your stuff wasn't moving, Now we know they are 2 different people.

After the way Allan has butchered the "Big Daddy" name, you may want to find something new, if a search before sale were to ever be done, it will be this thread that shows up and a hassle for you and a potential sale. Just a thought.
 
It sucks that Dane has to come here or even consider changing his Biz name. Sorry Dane wish you hadn't been dragged into this and I hope you understand why it happened. Randy
 
Deception was the only way

I think dane is talking about me with the Pretending to buy snakes...I did go undercover to say i wanted to buy one of his snakes under my girlfriends name and email. But i will address that allen would have lied to me if i had gone under my own name to ask if it were him. So sorry dane for the deception but i really feel it was for your own benefit whether you would like to believe me or not. Now maybe you will get a REAL offer for those nice snakes you have for sale.
 
IS OK - I Understand why now

I started reading the whole thing on big daddy wholesale issue and i understand why now. good lord that is a horrible story. there were at least 10 different people emailing me with fake stuff. the only one that bothered me was the whole one with my paypal account and sending money to get my home address and what not. Im fine with everything now. Just to be clear - I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH BIG DADDY WHOLESALE or anyone that works for them. have a nice day =)
 
Is there anyone who has anything good to say about Big Daddy Wholesale? I am having all kinds of trouble with a spider male I bought from him and now he is asking me to send it back to him so he can get it to start feeding. Just curious what others think.

Tellhim to send the money back.....and you send the snake when he gets it eatting GO SOMEWHERE ELSE TO BUY ANOTHER........ :rolleyes: :rofl: :rofl:
 
Have you read this thread Jon?

Some people are having problems, IBD infected snakes, he sold WC as hets, he uses lies to try and convince people he is right, etc.

What problems are you having withyour ball python? He did have IBD in his animals he sold. When did you buy the snake?
 
Jon, I certainly hope you have had the snake in quarantine.

I see Allen has his ads out on KS tonight.
 
Hmmmmmm. Haven't been seeing his staunch supporters posting here lately. Maybe they don't agree with BIG DADDY"S WHOLESALE IBD . Seems all is quiet and behind closed doors at the Belcher camp.

You won't find many here , especially of late , that'll have nice things to say.Good luck with your spider , I'm sure alot of folks have their fingers crossed its not IBD.
