    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.

    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....

LMAO!!!!
It's too easy to do nothing.
 
You guys are just TOO funny!!.... Do ANY of you have a life??.... What a Crack Team of Investigators (or is that a Team of Investigators on Crack!!).... Probably the latter, since none of you ever seem to go outside....

For the record, his name is, Mr. Ed (something or other).... we just call him, "Mr. Ed".... and you can tell everyone you got that info straight from the horse's mouth!!.... lol

You guys are just total Looney Toons.... Chuck Jones would be proud!!

Ali.... This wasn't meant for you, I actually understand YOUR reasoning, but THESE guys are hillarious!!....

Neil
 
Sal, I see your name down there, lurking, any comments?

It seems everything you touch turns to sh!t, time to shape up or live like a leper....where everyone shuns you for good. What about the people who gave you money for their house remodel? Have you returned ANYTHING to anyone?

Keep rolling around in crap Neil and eventually you get to resemble a turd as well. Guilt by association and repeated contact.....a fascinating concept.
 
One can’t help to wonder who to believe in this thread. Should one go for the following poster(s) who have seen the light and do things the right way?

SOME people see the light, and they TRY to change their ways, and do things the RIGHT way (as both of us have), but it won't add up to a hill of beans with MOST of the people here.... but it really doesn't matter to us what they think.... WE know what's right.... and it's the right thing to do....

Or with the following one that saw a different kind of light first hand, and decided that it was about time to "turn off the switch"?

Turn over a new leaf? HA! The day that happens. He'll try his damnest, but he'll never turn over a new leaf. Hell it's been over a year and he still owes me $350 out of the $1000 he was supposed to pay named in the divorce decree by the courts, not to mention all the other $$ that's not on record. He's not going to change....trust me, I know first hand. He honestly thinks in his head that the people he screwed over somehow deserved it....like Mark with the ball pythons, Sal honestly thinks that this guy was out to screw HIM, that the snakes were fine and Mark is just trying to get more money out of him. Sal tells himself this long enough that he begins to believe it. He does this with his business life and his personal life. He blames everyone else for his own problems.....and manipluates things to how he wants them.

So you want to talk about all the people he owes money to? You think because these people are customers they deserve it? Absolutely...but he won't pay them back....He still owes his family, his ex-wives, his kids.....his current girlfriend....he's in debt to all of us....all with promises of "paying us back".....so good luck to all of you. The only way he'll stop is when he gets thrown behind bars, maybe then he'll learn his lesson. Until then, don't hold your breath.

Tough choice, mmhhhh…“eny meny miny moe”…
 
Dan, first of all, *I* wrote the first blurb, and Alison wrote the second blurb.... I wrote mine from the heart, and Alison (as much as I love her) wrote her's out of spite, anger and revenge (can't blame her, though).... there's a BIG difference....

Both Sal and I have moved onward and upward.... we've had hundreds and hundreds of new customers who (80%) know all about the BOI and the people on it.... and to think, they STILL want to do business with us.... go figure.... lol

Sal now has his own pretty large facility for massive snake breeding, PLUS he just bought out a very large rodent breeder, so, in the very near future, he will be supplying half of southern Florida with rodents.... not to mention having all the food we need to keep our stock the healthiest in the country!!.... Want to compete??.... Good luck.... It's amazing what a financial backer can do for your ego and future business.... They've been together for about a year now, and things are going a LOT better that even I expected.... There are now NO animals that are beyond his reach, if he wants them.... AND, "Mr. Ed" knows ALL ABOUT the BOI, but went with his gut, and he's THRILLED that he did.... THAT'S what made him a multimillionaire.... Making the RIGHT decisions....

You want to hear something REALLY funny??.... We have a BIG TRADE DEAL going with one of YOUR FAUNA PEOPLE RIGHT NOW!!.... Maybe when the deal is over and it goes as planned, he will come on and tell of his experience.... Of course, it WILL be the exception to the rule.... Right??.... lol

You guys can flap your gums as much as you want.... next year, there will be some AWESOME animals that are going to be offered for sale.... every type of Ball and Boa morph you can think of, along with some other surprises along the way.... keep your eyes peeled, and your "drool-cup" at the ready!!.... lol

In the last year, we have done some pretty big deals (and sales) with some of the biggest names in this business, with not one complaint.... I guess they never read this site, huh??.... Go to our websites and see for yourself??.... That's why we couldn't care less what you write about us here.... it means absolutely nothing to the people that REALLY know us, and the exemplary way we do business.... Go ahead, laugh your silly little heads off....

And for those of you who have only read what some of these "people" have been saying about us, but don't actually KNOW us??.... buy something and see if you don't change your tune REAL quick!!....

7 years full time and still going strong.... must be doing SOMETHING right.... and it's just going to get "RIGHTER"!!....

"Cows may come, and cows may go.... but the BULL on this site, goes on forever!!"

If you think that this site is so full of bull, then why do you insist on coming here and posting so often?
 
TWO REASONS....

1. GREAT entertainment, it's like "The Little Rascals" mated with "The Soprano's".... and,

2. Every once in a while, I actually get to HELP someone....

Any more questions??

Neil
 
These are all farm hatched and raised in sunny Florida.... They are in perfect health and shape....

WE HAVE AS MANY AS YOU WANT!!!

CUBAN'S = $15.50 each (5 ANIMAL MINIMUM)
CRESTED'S = $7.99 each (10 ANIMAL MINIMUM)
BROWN'S = $1.99 each (50 ANIMAL MINIMUM)
GREEN'S = $1.99 each (50 ANIMAL MINIMUM)
BARK'S = $1.99 each (50 ANIMAL MINIMUM)

If you guys are riding so high on the horse (no pun intended Mr. Ed), why do you have to hock WC feeder anoles to save up money for python morphs? I can almost picture Sal and Neil sitting on their front porch with their fishing rods and lizard nooses waiting to make it big.

Also, if there's hundreds of new customers knocking down your door, why has Sal been selling the same Leticia boas and WC ball python "morphs" for almost a year now?

Hopefully, Mr. Ed has a chain on his wallet. He's gonna feel like a real horse's you know what when he figures out what he's gotten himself into.
 
Dan, first of all, *I* wrote the first blurb, and Alison wrote the second blurb.... I wrote mine from the heart, and Alison (as much as I love her) wrote her's out of spite, anger and revenge (can't blame her, though).... there's a BIG difference....

So let me get this straight. What you are saying is there no truth in what Alison wrote. She only did it out “spite, anger and revenge”. But, on the other hand you can’t blame her? You can’t blame her even when he told big lies about your friend and your employer’s partner? You sure have a big heart.

Sal now has his own pretty large facility for massive snake breeding, PLUS he just bought out a very large rodent breeder, so, in the very near future, he will be supplying half of southern Florida with rodents.... not to mention having all the food we need to keep our stock the healthiest in the country!!.... Want to compete??.... Good luck....

So Sal actually owns all that? Where did the money come from? Thanks for wishing me luck, but do you seriously think for one minute that I want to compete with a money-making scheme such as that? Good luck! You are going to need it when the bubble bursts. Hope the ticket to Port St. Lucie was round-trip, just keep it open…

It's amazing what a financial backer can do for your ego and future business....

Words of wisdom indeed! For those that are money driven it can make wanders to their ego.

They've been together for about a year now, and things are going a LOT better that even I expected....

Why would you have expected them to go less than optimal? If all you say about Sal’s new approach to life is true you shouldn’t be surprised, should you?

There are now NO animals that are beyond his reach, if he wants them....

Other people’s money…nice movie, you should watch it sometime. Danny DeVito does a wonderful job.

AND, "Mr. Ed" knows ALL ABOUT the BOI, but went with his gut, and he's THRILLED that he did....

That I would like to hear from the horse’s mouth (no pun intended).

THAT'S what made him a multimillionaire.... Making the RIGHT decisions....

Yes, and I’m pretty sure that with time and more knowledge he will make the right decisions. Try to maintain Mr. Ed’s “blinders” in place (no pun intended), at least for a while. Donald Trump is also a millionaire and the words “you’re fired” made him even more money.

You want to hear something REALLY funny??.... We have a BIG TRADE DEAL going with one of YOUR FAUNA PEOPLE RIGHT NOW!!.... Maybe when the deal is over and it goes as planned, he will come on and tell of his experience.... Of course, it WILL be the exception to the rule.... Right??.... lol

It doesn’t surprise me one bit. As I told you before some people would do almost anything for money.

You guys can flap your gums as much as you want.... next year, there will be some AWESOME animals that are going to be offered for sale.... every type of Ball and Boa morph you can think of, along with some other surprises along the way.... keep your eyes peeled, and your "drool-cup" at the ready!!.... lol

Yes but as GILA7150 said (you forgot to sign your name!) why do you have to post and repost the same animals over and over again. That there are going to be some other surprises there’s no doubt. Let’s hope at least some of them are nice ones!

In the last year, we have done some pretty big deals (and sales) with some of the biggest names in this business, with not one complaint.... I guess they never read this site, huh??.... Go to our websites and see for yourself??.... That's why we couldn't care less what you write about us here.... it means absolutely nothing to the people that REALLY know us, and the exemplary way we do business.... Go ahead, laugh your silly little heads off....

You know what? the “biggest names in this business” in my book are the small honest individuals, keepers and breeders alike. Those that work enjoy their herps just for the fun of it, and not because they want to compare themselves with others. Without those “big names” none of the other that do this for a living would exist.

You are using the term “we” a little loosely don’t you think? How long since you moved from Tampa? Or were you in business with “them” a year ago? Maybe we should rephrase that “Mr. Ed has done some pretty big things with his money”. Because if Sal had money of his own and he has changed so much as you say he would have made good on every person he still owes, including of course his ex-wife to start with (and BTW the money she’s claiming is “peanuts” compared to what you say “they” are making right now).

One final question, who are the people that really know you and your partners? If you think there’s a market for what’s shown in the picture please let me know, I have several pairs available and they are like new!

Regards.

Dan, That was one of the best posts I have ever seen!

Neil, last night you asked if I had anymore questions... Well, for starters right now I think I will just go with the questions that Dan has asked you.
 
Neil, get off the fence.

When Sal screws up, you come here and say that he's your friend, and you'll stand by him, and recount how you've told him he's screwed up and are helping him make things right.

When Sal doesn't follow through with making things right, you point out that you don't control the man, and you've done all you can do.

I'm ok with both of those attitudes.

Yet now, you're singing Sal's praises KNOWING that there are still many many people that have not been paid back by Sal, be it for remodeling or reptiles or cages or whatever the hell else that man did to con money from people.

Sal could be the proud owner of a brand new hot pink polka dot boa constrictor morph and no one with any sort of ethics or morals would be jealous of him or drool.

I realize that you're his friend, Neil. Yet, real friends have to say more than what someone wants to hear. If you're Sal's friend, knowing that he is perfectly capable of going on to financial success without remuneration to the many people that have been ROBBED by him, then your actions indicate approval of that behavior.

Neil, you've taken some hits here, but I have never put you in that class, and I would hate to do that now. Please explain YOURSELF. (Sal is beyond redemption.)
 
Wow...how much help does Sal need?

I had a transaction with Lynn "Coach" Peterson about 2-3 months ago and in one of our conversations Lynn clearly stated that he was the person helping Sal. Lynn claimed the reason Sal has not posted here was under his advice and that in all of his deals with Sal he's never been burnt. I should mention that Lynn clearly stated he would never pay Sal upfront for an animal until it was received by him....so I'm not sure just how far the trust runs.

So like yeah...wow...how many people does it take to turn this Sal around?

Chuck,

He has never been burnt because he receives and inspects the animals first and pays later. That shows the degree of trust he puts in the seller. That’s hands down “the best guarantee in the business”. ;)

Regards.
 
Well, we've got "the liar" defending "the theif" of the reptile industry.

If this is part Sopranos gubitz, when do we get to the part where you and your partner kill eachother over your bad and greedy along with seedy and lying business practices?

Let me know and I'll watch that episode for sure.

The rest of this soap opra is just as worthless as every other statement to come out of anyone with anything to do with bocamorphs.

I'm curious gubitz, hell you to salito, how come niether of you have a good guy certification? Is there a REASON for that, do you suppose? A good one maybe?

sal doesn't post because he is barely smart enough to find his own rear end with both hands and is tired of having said rear end handed to him over and over and over again when he does come here and THAT is why he won't post here anymore. He's outclassed (not hard to do), and doesn't like playing with people that are smarter than he is. Good thing he's got you, eh gubitz?

As far as you gubitz, you're not even here on your own nickle. That says volumes right there.

Of course one must be able to read AND comprehend what is written, which, if I recall, you've had considerable difficulty with in the past.
