    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 coldbloodedreptilelover ripped me off and is selling the snake i sent him!!!!

Hey, Raymond!

Raymond is still viewing.....Raymond, so you know if Mark still has the snake?

Dylan, don't give up just yet. The members here have done some amazing things :yesnod: . It's probably no help, but guys like him (trying not to make Harald mad) always seem to get in their own way sooner or later.

What I don't understand is that if Mark is so good at killing snakes, why doesn't he move on to some other criminal enterprise? Seems like he's working pretty hard to wind up with nothing.

I think Mark, like the majority of criminals, only sees the carrot dangling in front of him and doesn't bother to see the bigger picture.

Dylan, what legal avenues are you planning to take now that everything seems to be on the table? Have you spoken with your parents or other adults for advice and assistance in pursuing legal action? Don't give up on this, but please don't try to settle things on your own. Sadly, at this point you may want to let the snake go and pursue other means of compensation. I believe that by any very slim chance Mark does offer to send you your retic(or any other animal), you will greatly risk further disappointment and have either a dead animal on your hands or be saddled with extensive vet bills.

Ok I'll still have hope. Thanks for still believing in it!
 
Dylan keep hope there is still a chance I have to talk to a couple people and she what I can do. Ray was the other guy I knew that told me about this scammer. It seems everything he has said is a complete lie. His real name is billy and he never had any green tree python. It is beleived he still has your retic and Im working on getting his location. When you shipped the snake there was no apt #..?

I'm inclined to agree with you Patrick. Here's a link to an ad he has posted. I was scammed by him in 2009. I did my best to get back what was mine but he runs so many rings I'm not sure he even knows which end is up. The wording is a tell tale sign of his posts... "Hello there.." is how he starts off all of his ads. I know this because i had friends e-mail him when i started seeing my animals posted.
Dylan, didn't he offer you a snow boa in trade? Kind of coincidental that he is looking for snow boas in trade on his CL ad. What a piece of work!

What did he steal from you? And maybe we can try to get it back also. And yes he offered me a snow boa.
 
As someone who lives in MA, I can attest to the fact that Fall River is truly a dump.
For someone who's "having a baby" he seems to want to invest a lot of money into reptiles when where he's living is, more or less, the armpit of Massachusetts.

I regularly peruse the pets postings on CL for most areas in MA and I've seen him post several times with the email that's been posted in this thread and with all the same BS excuses [navy, kid, getting out of reptiles, etc..]

Dylan - I hope you resolve this issue soon. He clearly stole your snake, there seems to be no discrepancies on that, but I think a lot of people are right in saying you should take legal action and request that he compensate you with money instead of returning the snake since you can't be sure it's going to be returned to you in the health you sent it in. Either way, good luck!

Since he specifically mentioned "Billy", there WAS a Billy named in that other thread...one with a history of internet fraud. Billy Brier.
 
Mark......as Im writing this, you are viewing. Do the right thing and own up to your wrong doings. Most of us are on this site for selling/trading/bartering and it works out pretty well. Take responsibility for your actions and part ways......with all of us, bro;)

You lied about not receiving his snake then tried to sell it. So tell us again, what is it that you don't do?

The only thing you never meant to happen was him posting here and you getting busted.

Are you sending him his snake back? You are being a bit vague about it.
 
I just got this message from him. I'm not sure what to say...

hey dylan whats ur mailing info again buddy sending u a albino tiger retic 100percent healthy bro i read the boi people are pretty confused because i never scammed anyone they must think im somebody different bro i will ship out monday morning what u requested but i never stole ur snake buddy i swear to that once u get the snake will u stop the add? im out the reptile world anyways cant afford shit right now let me know man soon so i can ship it out no need for anymore bullshit bro ty hope we can still be cool
 
Dylan, make sure you are censoring vulgarities, even if you are quoting from someone else.

Either way ... it is ultimately up to you what you want to do, but at this point, I am not sure how much you have to lose in giving him your info again. He seems to be acting like he just happens to have an Albino Tiger Retic lying around and is going to send it to you because he is a nice guy. But ... we all know that is your animal, if he is actually going to send it is another matter all together.
 
We arnt on talking terms. but the address you shipped the retic is his girlfriends apartment where he 100% lives. Seeing how he has read and responded to this post..... he probably has dumped it quick. And that is the only snake he has. He isnt a hobbiest. He is just a reseller and doesnt have any other snake. Get the authorities involved and you definately have my statement. He doesnt know how to care for them properly and im pretty sure william has caused a uri.

Sorry I didn't even know he said it. Do u guys think I should take that deal? I feel like I should get more than he stole from me. And I want him to admit that he stole my snake
 
Dylan, you will not get more than he stole from you nor is it likely he will admit to it.

I would go ahead and set up a date to recieve the snake, but the realistic part of me says do not get your hopes too high.

If he fails to produce on his end, I would definitely get authorities involved because this has just gone way beyond reasonable at this point.
