    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....

Bad Guy David Huffman of Virginia(BAD TRADE)

I just got an email from Kyle Saueressig, he now has his snake back in his possession. I'm still working on getting everyone's shipping money back. I'll update the thread when Lance, Aaron, and Kyle have thier shipping funds returned.

David,
He never sent a tracking number, but the snake just arrived around 15 mins ago. It was not packaged very well, and he was shipped straight after being fed, but he managed to make it here ok. Dave Huffman said that he would e-mail me about the shipping money he owes me.
Thanks David, Kyle

Kyle,

Did David H. ship the snake? Do you have a tracking number?

Thanks, David Means
 
Just wanted to let everyone know that David Huffman has made good on returning the shipping money owed to Lance, Aaron, and Kyle. I met with David Huffman and he gave me cash and a 09 albino Retic to sell to pay off his debt. He had also made a Western Union payment to me two weeks prior to me meeting with him. I was going to sell the Retic and send the funds to the three parties owed. I talk to Aaron and he wanted the Retic, so I will be shipping the it to Aaron this coming week. Lance and Kyle have been repaid what they were out for shipping. It took a few months, but I'm happy to report this has finally been resolved.

Holy cow you are amazing go_topless!

I am really curious what you said or did to convince this guy to return the snakes and refund the shipping money...?! This is amazing and good.
 
Wow!

Not to sound redundant, but....

WAY TO GO!!!

This is a great ending to a story with a nasty beginning, not to mention, the fact that another victim came forward and was ALSO helped! That is awesome! David Means, you are a shining example of the kind of folks we need in our hobby! Thanks for that!

im always reading the boi, but never really comment much, but this is one heck of a story, its nice to know there are still decent people, great work for all of those involved, as well as getting david to redeem himself with previous parties involved, lets hope he does honest business in the future, but congratulations, this was really something.
 
Amazing! Go_topless, as everyone else has said, you're a great guy! We need more people like you in the world willing to help out others. I'm so glad everyone got their snakes back, and I hope the scamming dumbass goes to jail or at least gets blacklisted and never manages to screw anyone over again (wishful thinking I know, but at least he didn't get away with the three here!)
 
Makes me think we need not only the boi but others that are self elected "boi state enforcers" good wolk david I hope all that good karma pays off! Now go nuy a lotto ticket lol I will definatley love to help out a fellow herper if that were to happen to someone that was a scamming from here in arizona!!

Best wishes all
 
David even managed to get my shipping money back for me. I offered it up as a thank you for all the help he has given me, but all he wants is to do the right thing. He said if i could ever help someone out in the future that would be more of a thank you than any money. I just want to again say thank you for all the help you have given me, and if anyone is in need of help from the WA area i will be more than willing to help. Thanks again David.

same for me, im in oregon and always willing to help..lp
 
glad to hear everything worked out for you guys. I may not have as much clot on forums but I think a repo agent, a couple biker type bouncers and a state cop as friends will be a great help that I know


( In Dc you know Go topless got to have friends in high places. so how amny are fbi/cia type :)

I hope I never have to use my few connections in a case but if ever in DE area look me up or PM me .
 
Happy Endings...

Glad it worked out for the 3 victims here, and my hats off to you Topless.

There is a not so happy side of this story though:

Where do you think David H. got that 09' Albino Retic?

I would be willing to bet that some other person was scammed out of that animal.
 
"Perhaps... he has changed his ways and those ball python babies really are his own snakes?"
At least that's what about 1% of me thinks. The other, more pragmatic 99% of me is saying "NO."
 
I had emails for trades from this guy/same email addy just a couple weeks ago.. Trying to trade multiple normal bp's for a morph??? Hmm...
