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....

well...
i wasn't going to post this, but i feel i need to do so now so noone else gets taken by them...
i recently about a month ago ordered a 100 ball pythons from the to take to shows and vend. well it turned out to be a disaster. out of 100 balls, within the first week nearly 40 had died. alot of them were dead in the bags upon arrival.
now the count that i have left, that have not yet died has been 29. that's right, 71 of them have died. a couple weeks ago i sent a dispute via paypal for the amount that had passed at the time. i got somewhere around $250 back, but that still doesn't cover the cost of what i am losing in this transaction. i have NEVER had this happen before in any shipment, which is just pathetic. i personally would NEVER in my life consider doing business with them again. these were supposed to have been captive hatched and not just bush babies. they were very amaciated other than a few of them that are still alive, and seemingly thriving in my care. i would NOT suggest giving your hard earned money to them to save a buck or two. pay that little extra to some of the better dealers that stand behing their animals as this was just a nightmare experience on my part.
do i have e:mails, well a couple, but nothing substantial. i thought at first i was going to have to make another order, in order to be credited for what had passed within the first 24 hours, let alone the ones that passed in the days following.
this was just my experience with them, but others may have something substantial to contribute as well.

I have ordered some animals from them, I have never had a problem. alot of the animals are wild caught and I think the only guarantee is live arivval. I have had some D.O.A. imports and have always been credited back for the dead arrivals. I have also ordered numerous venomous species from them and had never had a problem with the hots, all have been packed and shipped correctly with no issues and everything has always been correctly represented to me! Sorry about your experience with them Matt.

Mr. Watkins, If you have proofof your claim and emails to support it you should start a thread if for no other reason than to present the negative side of their reputation so people can be aware before doing business with this seller.
