    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....

Bad Guy BOB CLARK A MAN WHO LIKES TO LIE PLAY GAMES AN WASTE TIME

Justin, your writing has so many errors, it is going yo take me more time than I have to read ANYTHING you have posted.

Remember punctuation and enter are your friends.

So what you said a few posts ago you don't really want us to pay attention to, the part about buying something you don't want, it that right?

well how long does it actully take when there is a problem with the permit numbers matching the Numbers of the Toe Tags ? but for him' to Ghost, me an stop communicating all together" is very shadey and unfair the least he could have done is told me to check back with him at the end of october im the one setting here with the money to spend thats inside my, wallet im also the one that has been setting here waiting on these things for the last 23 months longer then any of these other people who either are memebers on here or anywhere else which i guess forces me to go off an buy somthin i really do not want vs this.

Wow - now you're starting to sound like a petulant child who didn't get his way.

No one is FORCING you to buy anything you don't really want.
 
What? What do I have to do with anything you just said? I kept my reply to you short in hopes that you would understand it. I guess not.

Anyway you seem like you maybe a little unstable. i can honestly say someone with your cognitive abilities should probably stay away from anything that could potentially cause your harm. I would like to recommend a pet rock as your next acquisition.
 
to lucil korbin i just said that out of Frustration, no please do not take it seriosly an to the other member on here earlier who said somthin about me bien a hihg maintnence customer thats just an excuse it takes him 10 seconds out of his day to write me back, an its been over 10 days since i have had any communication with Him.
 
The BOI is not just a place to check on sellers it works both ways. Every post you have made on Fauna is in the BOI that alone would stop some from doing business with you.
 
Unable to read entire thread at this time, but we recently did a transaction with Bob and it was an absolute breeze.. And, it wasn't a simple transaction by any means..

Since you posted something and a few posts later stated you weren't serious, how is one to know what you say that you actually mean?
 
an you as a seller probably missed out on alot of deals

Justin,
I would've reacted the exact same way as Bob did, and I'm sure I'm not NEARLY as busy as he is.

Please do not take offense here, but clearly you are very anxious to get these animals, and when Bob doesn't respond in a manner that meets your expectations, you start a thread like this.

I've dealt with people like you before, and again, no offense, but I've just walked away myself, too. I don't have the time, energy nor the patience for the amount of attention you seem to require... you are what I call a 'very high-maintenance customer'.

The other major turn-off is your lack of mastery of the English language... again, no offense meant, but it's very difficult to try and decipher what you're even trying to communicate with all the spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors.

that is unfortunit then maybe you should not even be selling period when you do not have enough patience to work with people and acknowledge them i have been doin this for the last 15yrs of my Life an im not letting nobody run me away from this Hobby sorry
 
if any Members here want to check my history to prove that i have bought'' an owned crocodilians, an who do not believe me' on that behalf, your more then welcome to check with Mario at zoological imports 2000 Chris hunter at naturecoast Exotics an Jay at exoticjungle.net. they should have my private sales in there records.

ok im sorry that was accidental i had no clue that i should not post in the Boi i got an infraction for it so it will not happen again
 
Justin - I think your approach was all wrong. You came here and posted a bad guy thread because someone didn't respond to you as quickly as you thought he should have. Perhaps he was out of the country, or maybe he had a family emergency?

A better approach would have been to start in Inquiry thread stating that you were concerned that you had not heard from Bob and asked if anyone else had a similar problem or may have known what was going on.

Instead, you have now, on two separate threads, found it necessary to start bad buy threads and christen the sellers as flakey and liars (not liers, btw).

Rather than hurt either of their reputations, you've done far more damage to your own, by illustrating, at least here, that you have difficulties putting together cohesive thoughts, using proper grammar and sentence structure to effectively explain your position.

This makes it difficult for people to read your true complaint, but it also reads as someone who is immature in their thought process, and who takes little care to make sure that their audience understands them.

Then you also read as someone not willing to consider that perhaps you are a bit clingy as a customer and expect far more hand holding than even those of us less busy than Bob Clark are willing to do.

This thread probably would have been far more well received as an inquiry rather than a bad guy thread.
 
Fella, SLOW DOWN!!! Proof read what you are writing. Use the spell checker. Figure out the proper usage of punctuation and capitalization. PLEASE!!!

Seriously fella, take a step back and take a look at yourself. Quite honestly, I am siding with Bob on this, and I don't even need to hear his side of the story. You paint the picture yourself such that it's very easy to see what happened. Quite frankly, if I were getting bombarded by emails and phone calls from you, I would want you out of my life as well. Heck, I'm restraining myself from outright banning you here simply because trying to read and interpret your posts could drive other members insane. I know it's got my brain teetering on the edge.....

This time of year all reptile breeders are excruciatingly busy. None of them have time to deal with someone who tries real hard to make themselves the center of their attention's universe. It's all they can do to get all the work done that needs to be done without having a nervous breakdown and certainly do NOT need having someone nagging them constantly about ANYTHING. When the pressure builds to intolerable levels, some things have to give. In this case, it appears YOU were one of the pressures that was most expendable to Bob.

My suggestion to you is to CHILL OUT and throttle back the intensity you show here. It is rare that sellers will turn down someone's money, but it is pretty apparent that you have a notable knack for doing that. Seriously, it is NOT them at fault. Why in the world would they NOT want to take your money unless they have a very serious and substantial reason not to? A reason that you are obviously giving them IN SPADES.

IMHO, of course....
 
I've been friends with Bob since the late '70s. He is a great guy, easy to deal with, and believe it or not, very easy to get in touch with, at least for me. We've been buying, selling and trading with each other for decades. That being said, I applaud what patience he had with you. I don't think I could go that long. You are kind of a nut. But more, you are one of those "problem" customers. I've always found that if there's a problem with you up front, more problems will follow once the transaction is complete. It's a lot easier to walk away from a sale to you then to endure the headaches that are surely to follow. I love my customers, but I don't want you to be one. Of course I don't sell crocs either, so more then likely you'll never want anything I have. That's a relief. Now, I will go to "spell check" and post this. You should try it sometime.

yes you are right! i probably should have mad an inquiry about Bob before starting a bad guy thread on him so that was my mistake i think this was out of frustration but with people i Have, bought from in the past" that should be enough credibilty right there.
 
Justin,

I am sure Bob was busy and was simply unable to respond to you at the time, i am certain he is not doing this out of spite or to rile you up. At this point however, i doubt he will want to deal with you after this stunt you pulled so for future reference please take a breather and don't fly off the handle if someone doesn't respond to you immediately.

Remember a seller is not obligated to sell to you, it is an option. You have not given him a dime so if you were too impatient to wait for him to reply then you were free to walk away at any point in time. I believe you blew this way out of proportion and this thread reflects badly on you, not the seller.

You have made three BG threads targeting three different sellers because you didn't get your way, soon enough no one is going to want to deal with you.

Lastly, do you mind using capitalization and punctuation? Your posts are difficult to understand as they are just one big run-on sentence.
