    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....

Break in at Carolina Reptile Exchange (Bruce Eisenmanns store)

My two cents

Hi all~
I am a newbie here, and I just read the 76 pages of this thread. 1st of all, I would like to say how would Bruce like to be kept in the same conditions he keeps his animals? I think that would be the perfect sentence. Also, Bruce's father died in 1999, and even though he he dead, isn't that still identity theft by him using his father's info? I think this man is absolutely horrible and he needs to get his just desserts.

ALRIGHTY then!
It seems you all have jumped on board regarding my offer.
I am not sure what points you all want to make in this "gathering of info", that is up to you all.
Might I make a few suggestions....
1. Those that bought hets, give me dates, how you payed, amounts and if breeding them, what you are breeding to them (if you did not buy a pair).
2. Give first hand info. I THINK that the point of this was to gather info of those who feel they were wronged.........I may be wrong. I will take any and all info, ut that was just my thought on it.
3. Give accounts of what you have seen in his shop. Do you have dates? Conditions of snakes, cages, etc.
4. Do any of you have money that is owed to you? What did you sell him>? How much? Dates?

THings along those lines.
I will then compile this into a VERY SIMPLE Word program and send it to each and every one of you that email me.........all in one, so yes, if you email me, everyone will know that you emailed me when I email it back to everyone at once.

Anything else you would lilke me to do in regards to these 'records' post it here so we all can see it and learn.

Oh yeah. I want full names as well. No screen names if that is ok with you all. Like I said, you all can make the rules, if you disagree that is fine. Like one person pointed out to me, I personally have ZERO to gain in this. Just doing it for you all and for future reptile buyers.
 
I'll contact the individual who bought my "het" from "Harry" again and ask him to read these posts. Maybe he'll understand the need for all documentation to be provided, including the name of the individual he sold the other "het" female to. You all know my story, very little documentation, but I'll learn what I can from AVID. I didn't have any luck accessing their database on-line, need to contact them by phone. I'll get the info I have to Brian this weekend. As Craig knows, I previously e-mailed people that posted here saying they had his hets. Craig is the only one who replied that he still has his. Others no longer have them, or didn't reply, for their sake, I hope their reputations aren't riding on "Harry's" 100% "hets" proving out. Thanks all!

Does anyone have a yahoo acct. and/or how to start a 'forum'. I ask because this is getting pretty complicated trying to sort all this out. I figured if someone could set one up, put a link to it here, it might make more sense. With the info I am getting, the only real thing I can do is copy and paste it all onto one page and email it back to you all. It is more complicated than I thought.
I do want to help out or I woudn't have offered and wouldn't have hunted for info like I have posted here, but although the info I am getting is thorough, it is very 'scattered' for lack of better words. Just not sure what the heck to do with it.

NOTHING PERSONAL to anyone that emailed me, just want to make sure it is all there and makes sense. I guess if there was a page set up, people could take their time, tell a short 'story' as to their accounts of their dealings with Bruce and/or Harry and the companies they represent.

Am I making sense.
 
Brian,How about Excel instead of Word

In one workbook, you could just set a tab (new sheet) for each person's information and paste everything from that person into that tab. Then we could click on each tab to see each individual's information. A little easier to organize than dumping it all into a Word document. I don't know what you've received so far, but if people are sending photo images such as scanned documents or pictures, the file might end up getting to big to attach to e-mails to send back out to us. Just a suggestion.
Paul
 
That might work Paul. I feel bad, but I guess when I made the offer, what I am receiving are paragraphs of info. NOT that it isn't ok, but I thought a 'forum' type setup might be better for that. I guess I was thinking that people who bought from bruce or were owed money could just give dates, what they bought/sold, etc. ReticEd has set up a place on Yahoo. He said he will be posting the link shortly on where it is.
I can still take the info, but I am not sure what format people want it in. Like I said, I can do what you all want, but like I said, witht the info I am getting, I would only be able to cut/paste the emails somewhere where all of them could be onone page and read by you all.
 
Ed,
I think that will work well. I can then save it (that page) and send it to everyone if that will help. This way everyone has the info right there on their computer if it is needed to refer back to.

So everyone reading this, you will hit the above link in Ed's last post. Once you get to that page, there is a button on the top right of it that says 'join this group'. You then follow the short steps on it (You will have to set up a yahoo acct which is free) and then you can post.
I already had a yahoo acct., but I was just to dumb to understand how to set this up.......LMAO!

Good job Ed!
 
If I might suggest to everyone that joins the group........and I stronly suggest you do, be very explicit of what you know and/or experiences with Bruce/Harry/Noah. The more info you all gather the better it will be for YOU ALL.
Just remember you have to 'join' the group. it is very easy and painless.........and it is free so no worries there.
 
Yup still on vacation until the 6th.


Hey does anyone want to see a VERY "healthy" looking albino ball python?

NOTE: Sarcasm on healthy

I noticed Bruce has an ad up on the boa page on another site.
Hard to tell how long they are, but theone being help by someone IN MY OPINION looks a bit skinny for it's length. On the other hand, some boas just have that look to them.

Ritchie, where is that pic from?
 
Ritchie, where is that pic from?
Click to expand...

The albino bruce is selling.
I had a "friend" inquire about the albino ball python he has for sale.
Can't say from who.
But one day when someone needs proof that it really came from him.....I can certainly provide the proof.

But for right now.....all you have is my word it came from him.

Then again you can always inquire about his albino ball he has for sale.
 
Good for you! Glad to see you are attmepting to help others out!

Pretty snake, might be a bit better with some extra meat on it's bones.
Loos to be an adult, but I would think it could use a bit more weight, just my opinion.
 
WOW

I started reading most of this thread but went crazy once I reached page 25! LOL. Its like a cheap mystery novel or a boardgame (Clue comes to mind)! I simply can not wait to see what happens next! I don't often post on this site but this Kerry person/character has made the thread somewhat intriguing, especially with poor grammer, strange facts, and mysterious comments that don't add up. LOL.

Can anyone sum up pages 30-80 for me? LOL.
Also, if Kerry has an idea of who stole the herps and where they are, then why don't you tell the police or help the owner out in someway....maybe you are and I am just not reading it?

My herps are not worth a huge dollar amount BUT they mean a lot to me, esp with cleaning and feeding them over the years. If I had high end herps stolen, besides a shakedown, I think I'd post pics of them on all the herp websites. WHO doesn't have pics of their high end morphs? Seriously? If there are pics of the stolen herps, WHY wouldn't they be all over the net for identification purposes? Piebalds are pretty easy to identify AND even if the thief kept them as breeders... as a buyer, wouldn't you want to see pics of the parents of ANY high end, high $$ snake you buy? As a seller, wouldn't you take pride in the parentage? With pics out there, identification could be made even years down the road.

It seems like herp theft is becoming more and more common in today's industry. I think its best to stay low key for that reason. Although it didn't do Jeff Houston any good, so who knows?

Anyway, an alarm system (um $1200) or a big dog ($60 at the pound) seem like good investments for those that keep high end herps in their homes. A boardgame like Clue should seriously be made for stolen herps or mystery hets/genetics! lol Was it Kerry (or the butler) with the snake hook (maybe candlestick) in the quarantine room (or the library)? sorry for the bad humor, its late....lol

But seriously...can someone sum up pgs 30-80?...LOL
 
As far as Kerry is concerned, you SHOULD read the rest, then you would know more.
It is quite difficult to sum up the other 50-60 pages in one post, that is why there are as many pages as there are. Someone had something new to say and then people responded. I know it might be long, but coming in at the tail end of it and not even reading it is pointless.

Not being rude, just no way to sum it up for you.

I will say there is some good info in the thread if you choose to read it.
As far as pictures, you would have to read the rest of the thread for that as well. They ARE on the net, here and another site.
