    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.

Bad Guy Doug Matuszak, Boa Basement...Be careful when dealing with him...

enough is enough with you Paul Harb, lier extrordinair

Paul Harb has been shopping this story around now for 3+ years and it is as false today as it was then.
Yes, Paul and myself did a breeding loan back in the 2007-2008 season which there were babies produced from the 2 attempts and Paul got exactly what was promised to him but obviously that is not enough for Paul and as a matter of fact, he attempted to get more then what he was ever supposed to get from the deal.
It is interesting that Paul's description of the events depicts a totally different personality from what I actually am. I do get disgusted easily when someone is trying to get more then what they are supposed to receive and no one likes to be taken advantage of.
Paul continues to state that he is posting due to others encouraging him to do so, I would encourage Paul who is a person in his now late 20s to stop letting himself be manipulated into being a fool for others who hide behind the scenes and have only nefarious intent towards either myself or especially towards what I have accomplished in my now going on 23 years of producing some of the most beautiful animals in the industry today.
Paul has not been a successful breeder to date and some how has painted a picture of him being a major player in the industry, "Now that is a good one Paul".
To state one more time for those who believe Paul Harb, Paul got exactly what he was supposed to get from our dealings back in the day and he made some real nice money off of said share of animals he received. He also got his 2 original males back and i guess they have not made hhim any more babies under his attempts of breeding. that is not my problem nor is this story going to go on unchecked any more. I told you before that you are playing with a situation that may land you in a court of law for the slanderous lies you spew from your key board.
Get off the drugs all ready, I have first hand knowledge of this since he told me so over the phone more then once that he was enjoying a dube, thats how they roll in Cali. Get clean and focus on your animals and maybe you will produce something in your life time besides the animals you got from our joint venture.

I will once again wish Paul good luck in straightening up his life and getting clean, but I will not allow these attacks at my reputation which to my customers and who I help out on a daily basis, full of integrity and intelligence and don't forget a bit of arrogance
 
dustinNMpythons, who is this shaddow puppet?

this shaddow puppet has taken it upon himself to reply and spew Paul Harb's lies on the ads I post, that is allowed, but what is also allowed is to drag this puppet, dustinNMpythons, into the lies started by one Paul Harb. Is this actually you Paul or have you convinced another mentally disturbed person to join your futile attempts to take me down.
There are people in this industry that are so dirty that still make a living at ths no matter what people say. I tell people about those individuals every day to help them from loosing their money.
Another shaddow puppet is one character who the nerve to contact via email directly and accuse me of this non sense started by one Paul Harb, this puppets email is "not for you" and once I told them exactly what they could do with their lies, they have not come back at all.
Who will be the next shaddow puppet to strike, who ever yu are, I am ready.
If I find out one of you puppets is Dan from southern Ohio, you might as well get out of the hobby because your reputation is all ready in the trash can.
 
Here we go...

I have to say first I am happy Doug you finally came on here to defend yourself.

Firstly, Im going to be 40 this year...not in my mid 20's..sorry.

Also, I have had a few litters since we made that breeding loan gone bad.

I did a breeding with the ONE male you DID send back to me..the triple het and had a great litter with a snow and a lavender Sharp Sunglow to boot. Big Mike has the snow as he did the breeding with my animals for me because he felt so bad about how you had treated me and wanted me to know that not every big breeder was a crook. Ive had a great experience with Mike and we continue to work on projects. He has two male Sharp Snows from my litters. In fact he still has that male and my triple het female that we are working with on another project.

Also I had a screaming litter of Double Dose Lipstick Jungle Sunglows this year at my place in addition to a VPI T Pos litter with another breeder. So Im not sure why you keep saying I have had no success in breeding.

This is a hobby to me, unlike you where it is your main source of income...when its about survival people do some things maybe they wouldnt normally do, that is the only reasoning I can give behind your actions.

This story that you say I have been trying to sell for the last 3 and a half years is all truth. You stole my male double het sharp snow that I purchased from you years ago. You sent me back a few anery;s and a sunglow with a missing eye. You did send back my triple het male sharp snowglow...and that is why I let it go, because that was the most important to me.

Please by all means, call a lawyer...take me to court. You are a thief and a liar (thats how you spell lier). This all came up again because someone called me asking me if they should trust you as you had an animal they wanted. I told them my story but said if you had something they wanted and you had cash you were probably fine to deal with. He then forwarded an email exchange with you where once again your true colors came out with a nasty tone and a sense of entitlement because you are a big boa breeder...he was turned off and said he didnt want to buy from you after that.

I will always, let me repeat...ALWAYS tell this story to anyone who wants to know...anytime I see you selling animals I will post a link to this thread...i will not stop...I dont care you see because the strength of the hobby community is more important than some guy who breeds for money. This is bigger than you, this is more important than you Doug. This is about standing up for a hobby that I have been out of for a long time just to come back to see people like you who are cut throat and screw people over. This isnt an investment for me...this is fun...I like making cool animals...I dont care about sales...ask anyone who has bought from me how much I care about the sale.

What exactly was promised to me Doug? And what exactly did you give me? Im really curious what you think that is since you havent been specific...by the way I can dig up ALL of our email exchanges...might take a few days but it can be done...so choose your words carefully.

Ill take a look...

We have not been going back and forth for a few years...I dropped it after it was clear he was doing what he was doing. I do remember the last few emails were odd in that all of the sudden when I asked where my other animals and whats up with the eyeless sunglow, he acted like he had no idea what I was talking about in the email. That was the last email I ever exchanged with him as it was obvious that he was going to play that way.

Ill take a look, but honestly Im not sure it will help anything other than showing a rather odd quick turn in the way he was conversing with me. I dont believe there will be any emails unfortunately that have him talking about specifics as far as what animals are owed to whom.

I will state clearly however what I did get.

A female Sunglow
2 male Sharp Snows
and a male Sunglow

I think 2 anery's and an eyeless sunglow.

This was out of two litters in which we had 5 snows, a paradox sunglow or albino and who knows how many other sunglows and albinos.

The bottom line is he got mad when I decided I wanted to ask for my adult males back for the next season as I wanted to do my own breedings. This set him off and thats when he sent me those babies and ONE of my adult males...the triple het. He kept the double het adult male and has been using it ever since in his projects. He acted like I screwed him by asking for my adults back because he already had made plans to use the males for his upcoming season.

Like I said I will look up all the emails between us, it was quite a while ago but I should still be able to find them and see if there is any evidence in them to support what I am saying.

There might be hope yet....

Ha! I just reread my original post and I state there that in the email he said that those babies he sent me were in trade for the double het snow male adult...yet in his post on here he said he send me back both of my males...if I can find that email that has him stating he sent me babies in trade for the adult male then that would prove that he is lying about sending me back that animal...this evening I will look up those emails...I really hope I can find it as there is no going back after that Doug.

Like I said Im sure glad you finally posted here...you might have just proved my story yourself.

As far as all the other personal attacks that he put in his post...sigh, I wont even respond to all of that except to ask..what is the point? Who says things out of left field like that unless they are lashing out?


Paul
 
Paul Harb, failed breeder so attack only...

person who did a breeding loan wtih you and got you animals in your posession that to date, you can not produce yourself. I have been dealing with your mental illness now for going on 3 years and I have to say, I am sick of it.
I offer you wishes to get your life together and get off the drugs but you can't seem to grasp reality thus you will continue to battle against someone whom yu can nnot beat in any way shape or form.

I would like to apologize to the members in good standing on Fauna Classifieds for this non sense to continue from Paul Harb but I have no control over ones actions which are in his own words, so easily manipulated by others to do their dirty work. Who are these individuals Paul, or is that another fabrication of your wild imagination as well? I know this has been nothing more then an attempt by a disturbed mind to put some credibility to his life, that too is not my responsibility.

for those who believe everything Paul said, so be it, that is why we are all given "free will" and with this gift, we also need to have a level of what is right and what is wrong in order to determine what we hear and read to know what makes sense and what does not.
On that note, I wish all of Paul's followers "good Luck" you will need it because this guy has nothing but a story, nothing else at all and your belief that since I have not consistantly defended myself against these acusations means I must be guilty is simply ridiculous. Paul has been given more press over this story then he has ever gotten in his so called accomplishments in life.

Again, Paul, get clean and start taking responsibility for your own actions.

Now are some of you happy since I had to come out 3 years after the fabrication took place, of course not because some of you will never be happy, that is just how you are wired and I feel sorry for you.

I am done with the Paul harp portion of the story but I will post those who put up idiotic responses to my ads and people will get a real idea of who the real trouble makers are on these forums..
We don't need to worry about the Federal government shutting us down. we have our own form of home grown terrorists right here in the hobby.

I will...

I will let your posts of garbled ramblings speak for themselves. They say a lot of you as a person.

I also will find that email from you that says you traded me those babies for that adult male double het sharp snow...you know, the one that you just stated was sent back to me by you. I will refrain from going back and forth with you about personal stuff because there really is no point...I have nothing to gain by getting into that with you, and it is a sign of someone who is being emotional and cant speak clearly and intelligently.

Paul

.

Exactly right. So far, you have notably avoided posting any proofs to back up your view of the situation.

Neither does the Op.
No emails, no pictures, nothing in the standpoint of physical proof.

They are both in the hot seat in my opinion.
 
Is this guy for real! What an egotistical joker! I ain't heard o ya; and certainly ain't gonna call you for advice based on these posts alone! Sending out a one eyed animal; says all I need to know about ya! In it for the $$$$ only? How bout it? Are we comfortable enuff to admit; or no?

i sure dont feel in hot water...

Sorry, I dont feel like Im in hot water as you put it. When I get home from work this evening I will go looking for those emails...again there was no contract..this was all verbal..however Doug just stated that he sent me that adult double het Sharp Snow back...but in an email I have I remember him trying to play it off like I wanted to trade that animal for the junk that he sent me.

If I can find that email, that directly goes against what he posted here today...that in my mind should lay to rest who is being dishonest here.

Just curious what it is anyone thinks I would have to gain by smearing Doug's reputation? Just out of boredom? I dont get it.

Paul
 
Nobody brings stuff here for fun Paul; you obviously feel/felt ripped and here it is; 3 yrs. later. I see this all the time in the adult entertainment industry. "Fake" Head honchos try to use a reputation to hide behind; they simply rip people off knowing they have the majority behind them. The best part is that it's a small world still; and karma is real. He will get..... well you know... Nature has a great way of "cleansing" itself. Heck; this is why it rains every so often. Good luck in life to MR. SUPER BOA BREEDER!!! I ain't heard o ya. Borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring..... He sounds like the kid who cries in the sandbox cuz his widdle pwwwwastic shovel got taken by a girl! Good for you Paul for standing up to the fake bigshot! Where's Sylvester when we need him. Addddddrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiian!

Tone it down. This is a business forum. You are welcome to have opinions, that does not include making derogatory remarks.

can you show me where the guy said you have heard of him?

Again can you show me where the guy claims to be a head honcho? Perhaps I missed it. Can you show me where he claims to be Mr. SUPER BOA BREEDER? Can you show me where he claims to be a big shot?

Time to change your avatar? Ya think?
What does her avatar got to do with anything

By the way. Who are you exactly? I mean you obviously have a gripe with "Mr. Super Boa Breeder". You obviously want to make a point that he is nothing and you have not heard of him. You are screaming so loudly to the fact that you have not heard of him, it makes one truly wonder. Did you even read the thread or did you come straight here five minutes after joining.

I can tell you one thing about this whole MESS... your slander against Dustin, is childish and WRONG! How can you gripe about Paul "slandering" your so called good name and sit right there on your keyboard and do it yourself? What evidence do you have that dustinNMpythons has anything to do with paul? I posted on one of your sale ads as well! What now I'm mental? Nope not at all just like Dustin.... maybe where your getting confused is we know right (honor your breeder loans) from wrong (keeping animals that belong to the other breeder)


You have miles of road to travel sir...
