• 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.....

    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....

Bad Guy Christopher Lewis on Kingsnake (SCAMER)

Also Contact Kingsnake on the matter if nothing surfaces from him. The emails state you paid for them just yesterday.

Which i know your getting nothing from his actions on this forum.
 
its never good when someone says they dont have more pics for the $900 worth of snakes they are selling....if I'm going to spend any kind of money on a snake the person darn well better be will to take a few extra pictures for me if I'm feeling unsure about the situation

you will most likely have better luck getting your money back from you CC company....as the paypal account you sent you money to has most likely been emptied, or will be by the time paypal does anything about it
 
I believe any time you ask for new photos and someone says they can't get new photos, that should throw up a red flag. He may be using someone elses photos he stole off of the internet. In that case he can't get new ones. If he is a known scammer then do all you can as fast as you can to get your money back. It looked like you only paid yesterday, so only one day has gone by. Best of luck, I hope you get your money back.

Actually if his account isnt attached to a paypal debit card it takes 3-5 days to transfer funds to a bank. So if he made a claim, paypal will lock his account and overturn the transfer. So that money is still in his account if he didnt use a debit card at atm.
 
kk well i guess im going to call my CC never had anything like this happen to me and he stayed in good contact up untill i payed
 
Clint... Thanks for bringing this here.. I was actually looking at those snakes but don't have that kind of dough!! I Hope you can get your money back.. It's only been a day so hopefully he hasn't emptied the account and Paypal can freeze it before he does. The only way he would be able to have access to any moneys is if he proves that he has the product or a working tracking number!! Good Luck!!
 
just got off the pphone with my CC company and they told me i had to wait for it to post in a day or two and they would take care of it for me
 
how do i get ahold of kingsnake to let me know i see all his add's he had on there are now gone
