    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....

I did a trade with him last year, and it just popped into my mind to write a BOI thread!
I traded him an adult female spider ball python for a lesser female and a bumblebee female, and paid for all the shipping. Considering the size of the snakes it was a very fair trade.
I shipped first because I hadn't shipped before, and therefore didn't have a good reputation going for me yet. He kept her for the weekend before shipping to make sure she was a healthy properly sexed female, then sent my new snakes to me as promised and on the day he said he would! They were both healthy, properly sexed, and the same snakes as pictured.
He was a very good communicator and pleasant to deal with! I would definitely do business with him again.
 
I also had an excellent trade with Charlton Kangas. Communication was great and everything went down exactly as we had agreed. Excellent packaging and wonderful animals. Highly recommended.
 
Thank you all for the kind words! I was looking-up someone else and stumbled across this thread. Always males you feel good to hear positive feedback. Cheers!
 
Charlton Kangas is great!

Last week I contacted Charlton Kangas of Kangas Kritters in CA about a male BEL he had advertised for sale. We communicated back and forth via email for a couple of days before I finally decided to buy the snake. Charlton is such a polite, cordial, patient man. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and promptly and was extremely professional......and nice. Just an exceptionally NICE guy. His prices are quite reasonable too. I was a little concerned about shipping the snake all the way across the country (I live in NC) but Charlton assured me it would be OK. FedEx delivered the BEL right on time this morning and I was delighted to find him in great shape and even better looking than Charlton had described. All in all this was a great transaction in every way and I would HIGHLY recommend doing business with Kangas Kritters.
