    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Bad deal with Bobby Pruett and Ty Young!!!

Okay y'all, that's about as far as I'm gonna let this hijack go. Any issues concerning an individual's participation/non-participation in Mario's "boycott of one" should be posted in the thread concerning that subject. This thread is for issues regarding Bobby Pruett & Ty Young and Bobby Lee.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

I would have to agree.......How was Bobby spose to know about the 3% if they didnt tell him ...instead they decided to post on the BOI when I am sure all it would have taken is a phone call or email to Bobby and he would have made it right.....How is Bobby going to know that they didnt get their refund in full if they didnt tell him ,he isnt a mind reader.......



What a joke, I cannot believe after 15 pgs. that no one has said this >
Bobby and Ty are not that stupid, they knew dang well that they would not get the 3%.
Bobby and Ty both use pay-pal and they know it costs money to send and recieve, Bobby is just trying to act dumb.

I had a bad experience with Bobby Allmost a year ago. I recieved a DOA
The poor snake had 3 heat packs touching a 8 inch round 3 inch tall container with a 6 foot snake in it, He tried to not replace it and changed his terms on his website to fit his needs after it happened. He finally made right on it but it was at a bit of my cost.
I would recomened people to run, run fast , run very fast.

LOL Jim you do make me laugh. I sent Jim a snake and his wife did say it was *acting funny* when she called. Jim calls later to tell me it *showed up dead* Even though I figured he done something wrong I offered a replacement. I was working a trade at the time with another person that would make to where Jim and I could meet and I could hand him the replacement. The trade fell through and I told Jim I would not ship until the weather broke. I then told him if he came to my place I would let him pick out his replacement. Jim took that deal and drove to my place and the snake he chose was a 7ft Hypo female amazon. So I repladed a snake with one worth twice as much... Ya Jim that makes me a real bad guy! Jim started this over $50 he said he spent on gas to drive to my place. Hey Jim, if I drive to your place and give you $50 can I have the Hypo Amazon back?
 
Nice try again Bobby, you know what my wife said to you on the phone. And as far as you replacing it, it took you over a week to finally agree to replace it, after I begged to you on the phone and made you the offer that I would give you some babies from the replacment because you were not going to replace her because I mentioned that, what do I have to do bring it here to the BOI. You then said that you were not going to replace it.
And O sure bring me the $50 then I would be out the $500 item that I traded for the snake, I thought you were smarter than that.
When I went to bobby's place there was so much crap in everyones cage and there was a 3 1/2 foot gator in a 50 gal aquarium. And he claimed he did not have any newspaper to clean cages and he just moved into the place and he just picked up some news paper the day before when someone through some out in the trash. His name was on the mail box so I figured it was a lie.

After he finally agreed to replace it he said he had a deal with someone else of some geckos for a emerald basin, and that I could meet them guys in a diffrent state and get the replacement, I waited about 3 weeks with them guys not going yet so I asked bobby if he would meet me anywere, and he would not even meet me at the end of his driveway.
He was very unpleasant to deal with.
He finanally sent the geckos to the other guy for the trade and the guy sent the gecko's back because they were not worth the trade, and Bobby even went as far as sent the shipping Bill to the guy when he sent the anamals, Talk about Balls.

I think everyone here nows that I could care less if you want to post about me here lol

And O sure bring me the $50 then I would be out the $500 item that I traded for the snake, I thought you were smarter than that.

I gave you a snake that cost me $1000, so why am I a bad guy again?

Snakes tend to crap when you feed them lol. Yes the gator was in a 55gal. Its was dropped off and I didnt want the guy that had it to set it loose in the trout stream here in Sandusky. Hows this make me a bad guy.

I believe I posted I was not going to ship, and your leaving out it was the dead of winter so no I was not going to drive in it.

Seems you like to make things up Jim... I think you just might want ask Noe why he sent them back. Also ask him why he want to keep 2 out of the 3 leachies I sent. I told him no and to send all 3 back, and yes with that done he did pay the shipping. You dont try to make changes in a trade AFTER you recieve your part. If he would have been unhappy with the geckos I would have paid the shipping, but since he wanted to change the deal I didnt see where I needed to pay for it.

So if my wife were to buy a snake.
Then she gets ripped off.
Then she tells me about it.
Then tells me to post as she stands next to me.
Then it will be third party hearsay?

Also sorry I am NOT a moderator for the BOI.
EVERYONE here knows that. My name only appears so I can have access to BOI IP addresses.

I do not use "the powers" just for the things I want to use it for.
I am under instructions to only use it for checking IP.

Look Ritchie ......I am not going to get into ur Mod status with u here .....We have a whole other forum for that if u want...... ;)

But yes it is hearsay if u werent there to hear it .......its coming from someone else to u about something u didnt have 1st hand knowledge about ........Maybe ur wife is a cronic lier .......And told u the whole thing wrong ....maybe she was doin the breeder and he /she broke it off with her and that made her mad so she killed the reptile.....Or any number of reasons......

1st hand knowledge and facts is what its all about ....... So really if u want to add things ur wife,brother,sister,uncle,or best friend said then be my guest but it doenst mean a thing CUZ U WERE NOT THERE TO HEAR IT 1ST HAND.......Anyone can make up anything to make themselves look good ........But if u have proof and 1st hand knowledge it becomes a FACT......not fiction

So really the gecko deal shouldnt be posted here........ITS HEARSAY........And this HAS been brought up in several threads on the BOI......And these people who said these things were told not to .......So WHY is Jim getting away with it ????????
 
Please note that I may not be able to get to read every new message posted in a timely manner. YOUR seeing someone violating the rules does not mean it is OK for you to do likewise. And your message being deleted while another one similarly violating the rules remains does not mean I have singled you out. It may just be that I haven't gotten to that thread or message yet, and perhaps I never will if someone doesn't call it to my attention.

Report the thread.
Like webslave has said many many times before.
He can't get to everysingle thread.


Thanks for the clarification of 3rd party posts.
 
I am not going to go through this entire thread to check what Jim may be referring to, but the restriction I have put in place about third party postings has a key word in it that was left out of this discussion: anonymous third party posts.

That distinction is important. If Ritchie says his wife says something and he relays it here, it is NOT anonymous. There is an identifiable source to the quotation he made. If Jim makes a statement inferred as a third party quotation, and names the source of that quote or information, then that is legitimate information to be considered here. Something along the lines of "a friend of mine said" or "I heard someone say" is NOT appropriate because it is then an anonymous quote. But if he says "I heard from Joe Schmoe..." then yes, that is appropriate for inclusion in a discussion. Of course, subject to denial by the person claimed to have been the original source.

The purpose of all this is to have a verifiable source to everything stated here and the attendant ownership of the words stated.

I hope I have made this a little bit clearer.

No problem .......Heres the mentions of the 3rd party hearsay....

"He finanally sent the geckos to the other guy for the trade and the guy sent the gecko's back because they were not worth the trade, and Bobby even went as far as sent the shipping Bill to the guy when he sent the anamals, Talk about Balls."

"What was I thinking, 2 out of 3 aint bad odds. LOL


Were do you think I herd this from ? The person him self.
And nice try on shipping trade send the bill to him, LOL you sent the original package payable to reciever that was before he sent them back. LOL"

Now there isnt a mantion of any name here that I can see ......So I think that this would fall right into anonymous 3rd party .......
Thanks for u time ;)
 
You see webslave.

Some people expect you to read EACH AND EVERY single reply.
SPECIALLY in bobby's threads.

Someone says that they can bet EVERYONE else gets warned except people doing it against bobby.

Oh no. I said someone and did not give a name.


p.s. if you all really want I can go get the quotes.
