    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.

    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 wanted to buy a Female candy cane from him. he had one for sale i bought her. After payment he didn't talk much...He went from answering my mails...to having to pm Many times as he was online to talk to me. i paid for a adult female corn In perfect heath, eats F/T and tame. Using a paypal Echeck it took a few days to clear. even then he didn't talk much. However i let it pass. Then it clears. so i asked him to ship the snake. No reply. then That same day later on. He tells me "he will try" Ok...and he then mails me back saying he missed the pickup time. He will have her shipped out Monday so i get her on Tuesday. Monday comes...still no reply and mind you he was online all week and weekend long, Even that day...No pm reply about the snake at all. So i stay home in case he sent it and didn't tell me...No snake. and like clock work there is One pm...filled with sorry i was busy.. and will get her out today. OK. so i search his background and his known for being a Bad guy the day before someone posted about him. with the same problem. he gives me a tracking number and voids it. Now am getting more worried. then he fixes it again and now the snake is shipped...This morning.. i get a box covered in duck tape no holes, whatever and i had my camera ready so i took photos as am unpacking her. the bag was Knotted up with duck tape i couldn't open it besides ripping the bag...I open it. She is out i Checked She is female...But why on earth did you not tell me she has a odd kinked tail? Not one word? you told me she was 100% healthy No flaws, then what do you call this? Over all Not happy, am very disappointed At all you didn't sell me what you promised.



tried posting the Pm but its going to take some time, Either way i loaded the photos...

James james james..... you didn't disclose the kink to your customer. You had a chance to fix things and you went ahead and screwed it up. Shame on you.

And you think everyone was being unfair to you?
 
Ok look shipping was FAIR at best, no there are indeed no holes! his telling me there is. THERE ISN'T and besides the point i don't care, it came alive. I care about this snake you didn't tell me about its tail, and how can you not notice it. everyone else can i can, i took photos. How can you not see it. Along with that there is no holes in the box. and just so everyone can see in case am blind, are there holes?

she came, but not happy.
Shipping was way to much duck tape, i have a box cutter just in case because that would have taken me forever to open, then her bag was Way to packed, Huge knot and more duck tape i wouldn't even open it i had to rip the bag. Then i look at her..She alive...But why on earth did you not say anything about Her Very Odd and kinked tail? let me know thanks. over all with waiting and everything then getting a snake that i have no idea Her tail was like that am disappointed.

Re: she came, but not happy.
I dont really know what to say. I shipped her to you and I and no one that has seen her saw that kink in her tail. Please check the corners of the box and notice that there are holes in all 8 corners. I am not sure how I missed that kink. I taped the bag just like eveysnake I have ever had shipped to me. i used duct to reinforce the box. She is a she and is in good heatlh. I realize you where looking for a problem because of my bad guy post but I did send you your corn and she arrived alive. I put the live harmless animal label in the box just as I have done before. I used foam padding in the box instead of stryofoam. I am sorry it took so long and I told you yesterday that I had to get a new shipping label because of the wrong address on it. i sent you the first tracking number to show you that I was shipping and I them sent you the right tracking number and you did not even respond. Go ahead and jump on the band wagon but this time I got her out to you and the kink was an oversight that I still dont see real well. you have the snake and you could have contacted me first but I guess you figured since I had one bad guy thread you might at well start another. Thanks I just got your pm and I am replying to it.

Re: she came, but not happy.
How can you not notice something is wrong with the tail? was she born with it. did something happen to her? You can clearly see something is wrong with the tail.you are known for not shipping on time, So Yes of course am going to post about that.. now you tell me Since you had her you Never noticed something was wrong?

I dont think I deserve a bad guy thread from you over my shipping I stayed in contact with you may be not every minute but I did. I did not notice the tail at all. I am sorry you feel that way but my packing was done right. there where holes in the cormers and the box was securely tapped, labeled and sealed. I tapped the bag well to make sur there was no escaping. I feel I did a good job on the packing and dont deserve a bad guy thread over that.

Am not that upset over packing, But just so you know i have the box right here, just took photos there uploading now..there are indeed no holes. she came alive. Am glad, but its the weird tail that is Making me upset. she was going to be a breeder? now i cant do anything because of this Tail. I don't know if she was born with it in that case she is worthless...or if something happen to her i should have been told anyway.. So shipping was fair at best, but the tail you never told me about. and how can you not notice it? its there in the photos i took and you can clearly see it in person.

I never noticed that small kink. She is not usless. I would have told you if I had noticed. Look at the corners of the box and you will notice that they are all torn a little. I poke holes in all the corners and that is the truth. She was sent just how I told you.I do not deserve a bad guy thread over the packinging which is what you started out with in the bad guy thread you started. you could have tried to contact me before you posted a bad guy thread that was not fair. But I gues I should have checked her over better but I still did not notice her tail.

Re: she came, but not happy.
So you feel she is worth the total of the $100?
 
there was, i took it out, in case i was missing the holes that he said that are in the box
i dont care about it that much since she came alive, however since he swears he did. and i still cant find any holes...i care about the snakes tail! this is inside the box without the bag.

by the way great way to even try to look good, Or even look like your telling the truth, right after i sent

He logged off......
 
Just to make sure his full name is on this thread too. James Dean-Bayles

Honestly James give it up. I honestly do not believe you will ever make in this business/hobby. If you honestly did not notice the kink then honestly how long did you have it? Are you just flipping animals you come across? If it was honestly in your care for any amount of time and you honestly did not notice the kink then honestly you had better get out now before you clog up the BOI with bad guy threads. :NoNo:
 
These responses to quotes are to James through the above post.

I shipped her to you and I and no one that has seen her saw that kink in her tail. Please check the corners of the box and notice that there are holes in all 8 corners. I am not sure how I missed that kink.

Oooh ooh I know, because you did not actually look at your snake and check it over BEFORE you shipped it out! That kink is as obvious as any kink I have ever seen! The very nature of a box being made out of a flat object means that there will be holes in all eights corners. This is NOT an acceptable method for making sure the box gets some air exchange. James you need to go back and watch the video on ship your reptiles or read about acceptable shipping practices on any appropriate website for that matter.

I realize you where looking for a problem because of my bad guy post but I did send you your corn and she arrived alive.

No, I don't think you actually understand what is taking place here. You are scamming and shipping out snakes with defective genetics. People tend not to take either of these issues lightly.

I used foam padding in the box instead of stryofoam.

Foam padding does NOT insulate anywhere near as well as styrofoam. Had the animal encountered cold or heat this stuff would not have kept the box at a relatively constant temp.

I never noticed that small kink. She is not usless.
Actually, yes she is in terms of breeding. She is a great pet, but you cannot and should not breed a snake with a known genetic defect such as tail kinking (this is known to have other undesirable effects within the snake).

I poke holes in all the corners and that is the truth.
No, the holes are there already. And this is not the proper method anyway.
 
For the record, no cardboard box is airtight. I know lots of sellers who do not poke holes in shipping boxes. I've been a recipient of such and have never incurred a loss. That being said, its whats inside that box which is most disturbing. That is completely unprofessional and substandard packing to ensure a safe transit and live arrival. In his rush to make himself look better he made himself look even worse.

It doesn't matter what he claims about the kinked tail. If he didn't notice it then he doesn't know what he is doing and he is done. If he did notice it but didn't want to disclose it to you for fear you'd back out of the sale he is done. Either way he is done.

Ditto. Perfectly stated.

Here's the other current thread on this guy, just to save people from having to go back & forth:

I still haven't gotten my refund he says its going to take time to make payments back and to have a heart since he made a mistake. After seeing that kind of packaging I don't think so
 
i have contacted him and paypal for my refund, Told me his account is frozen and doesn't have any money, Even the money i paid for the snake with anymore...Looks like there is a jam trying to refund everyone...
 
Pull this following quote from the other thread:

I just received a message from paypal stating that he has to wait till funds are put back in to refund me. I don't know about anyone else but I always keep the funds in there until the transaction is complete and everyones happy.

:iagree: Honest folks would.

:eek:

:NoNo:

You're just horrible Mr Dean! :ack2:

I'm almost speechless. Almost.

He has to pay it back in payments??????????


As already questioned how do you not notice the kink in the tail? That is VERY noticeable to me and so are the lack of holes in the box and really shitty packing. Bad Guy for sure!
