• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Info Ben Siegel

Don't know why I typed Bill, obviously meant Ben. I've never bought from Mr Siegel, but if this thread is any indication, I will make it a point to do so in the future :thumbsup:
 
Ben Siegel is a Good Guy

First I just want to say that I don't normally post on the BOI unless I have direct dealings with someone and there is an inquiry about them.

I have purchased from Ben on a few occasions and have been more than happy with the snakes I received. The snakes looked 10x better than there pictures posted in the ad. Which is always a nice surprise if you ask me. I would purchase from Ben again in a heart beat if he had something i was looking for.

It is common practice for breeders or sellers to post one or two offspring of a litter were multiple animals are for sale. Especially when there is not much variance in the litter for sale. I think this is expected since there is no way to post every animal for sale in a certain litter. The most anyone should expect is to be offered is pictures of the animals that are left for sale. Which was done in this case but the buyer rufused. His concern from others or animals was did not fuel his intentions with this unjust thread on the BOI. He has showed us his lack of concern for animals and fellow herpers in this post and others.

I will leave it at that because I have wasted enough time with this guy and his attacks on good people.
