    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....

Has anyone done business with this person? She replied to one of my ads and offered to pay more than I asked which was weird. Also I see that she has been trying to buy a bunch of other snakes around fauna. It almost seem like she may be doing on of the classic paypal scams where she claims she did not receive the animal or claims that it was not as listed then paypal returns the money to her after she provides verification she shipped the animal back. Usually they just send a letter with confirmation and say that was the animal.

Any Info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Here is the e-mail i got back from her:

Hey Anna,

The Dumerils Female is still available if you would like to have her. I have had several offers for trade and a couple of people who wanted to buy her. None of the trades were worth it and the people who wanted to buy never responded.

I am asking 200 Shipped for her and I accept payment through paypal.
 
HI CHRIS !! IF YOU GO TO I-HERP YOU WILL SEE THAT I BUY HERPS, AS FOR A PAYPAL SCAMS,ALL I COULD DO IS SIT BACK AND WONDER .BUT I AM GLAD THAT YOU ARE COVERING YOUR SELF,YOU MUST HAVE GOTIN SCAM BEFORE. AS FOR THE PRICE,I FEEL THAT SHE MY BE MORE $$ TO SHIP THEN YOU MY THINK,SO TO BE FAIR I ADDED $25 MORE,AND IF YOU ARE STILL UNSHORE I CAN MAIL YOU THE CASH TOMAROW MORNING. PS I AM A VERY UNTRUSSING GIRL,WEN EVER I BUY SOMTHING THAT I CAN NOT SEE IN REAL LIFE I AM EXPECTING TO LOOS MY MONY!! YOU WILL SEE THAT AM ALLWAYS FAIR. THANKS. ANOTHR PS I WILL NEED YOUR ADDRESS TO MAIL THE CASH TOMAROW.
 
Well I spoke with Anna tonight on the phone and she was very nice and knowledgeable about reptiles. She has agreed to send cash to avoid any possible paypal mess. We agreed to wait untill the shipyourreptiles site by proexotics is up and running to do any shipping, the temps should be a little better by then anyways. Even though it may be 3 weeks or so untill i ship she agreed to send the money tomorrow anyways.

So far she has been a pleasure to do business with. I will update this post in the future with the results and will also leave itrader with her if it works out well.

I wish people used the itrader ratings more and that there was a more secure method of leaving feedback like ebay has. Oh well....Just a thought.
 
So I received the money for the Dumerils boa and we have decided to wait until the 16th of March to ship her when shipyourreptiles.com is up and running. Anna Braun is a great person to do business with and is very nice.

Thanks
 
I wanted to add to this as well. I met up with Anna last night, and the deal went as smoothly as I could have hoped for. She bought a couple woma babies from me, and was punctual and easy to work with. I'll d business with her again in a heartbeat.
