    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....

Gregory Bowman aka thedietcokeguy Inquiry

okay.
This is the info Neil gave us

Gregory Bowman
16931 Rayen Street
North Hills, CA 91343
818-391-4553

I had a gut feeling he was a little kid living with Daddy.
So I punched the address into whitepages.com and got this

Henry C Bowman
16931 Rayen St
North Hills, CA 91343
818-894-8941

There is only on Henry C Bowman in North Hills and he is Fifty(50) years old.
So I went back and researched Gregory.
There is only one Gregory Bowman in North Hills and he is Twenty (20) years old.


He posted this in someones e-mail or something
"Do you know who I am"

So I answered that he is a twenty year old kid.

As for all the different companies names......Look at all the different e-mails he has sent out. Look at the different posts he has made.....He has signed at least six different company names
Pangea
Pangea Exotics
Pangea Research
Pangea Research foundation
Pangea Zoological Institute
Calumet Industries

Each time he wanted to impress someone.....he would put one of these companies.

That makes sense thanks.
 
Neil,
Hahahhaa. I'm always nice! :) Like I said, I really do not have any bad feeling towards you at all. In fact their is a post in the General Business Discussion Forum regarding me at this moment. I recently completed a transaction with Stephen Kennedy. When I recieved his money into my Paypal account, I immediately began the transfer to my bank. I then notified him that I would ship the snake as soon as it cleared into my bank account. He thought this was odd and he decided to post a question to the Forum. "Waiting for transfer?". He also told me about this and I encouraged any information provided. I know that I heard this was acceptable on here (BOI) due to the fact that this is the only place I have received any information regarding Paypal. Well the money cleared in 1 day and there was no hold up at all, and the deal went perfectly. Stephen was a great person to deal with and when he had a problem or possible problem he handled it with simple questions and a level headed inquiry. I also took no offense to being questioned (indirectly through the forum and directly through email) because he only wanted to know why, and I definitely want to know if I am doing something that is not the norm or even acceptable. I now have talked to him for awhile and trust him and beleive Stephen to be a very good guy by the way he handled this. I bring up this long boring story to show you that with any transaction or possible trade that I might encounter I always here Neil Gubitz yelling in my ear because I did not do every possibly thing to protect myself from a scam that I could have avoided. I see it time and time again and is a good way (Neil harshing on people who dont follow trade or sale rules) to push the point of how not to be scammed.
Also Rich.. Are you positive that he is 20 years old? I have met Gregory and I was under the impression that he was near my age (29) or older. He did not tell me that, he just looked older than 20.
Thanks, Tom Baker
 
Neil did paypal me the 100 dollars... but it wasn't this morning. it was 7:30 pm last night. As we all know Neil has memory issues :). But on a serious note. Neil is a stand up guy. The only time i could see him giving anyone trouble is if you got on his bad side (I.e. try to cheat him), but then again who wouldn't be upset? Anyway story goes like this... I ordered a frilled from neil it died... he offered to pay half for a new one. (hence the 100 dollars) this was well after the 24 hour period in neil's guarentee. Seriously folks, all this bashing on neil is rather unfounded. I think this thread should probably be closed... it's just irritating people. Neil has proven time and time again he is there to make his customers happy. I would do an order with him, but i have too many things going right now... (really interesting stuff with salmon sperm... u don't want to know :) ). If Neil says he's going to do something he will, i have no reason to believe he is going to cheat anyone for a mere 200 dollars. it's not worth it to him. From everything i've read in this thread... i can only see mistakes that neil the serpent den guy (can't remember your name sorry, but u're a nice guy so i should :) ) have done wrong is mess up a few times in shipping, they promised to correct it, and they have. So the only issue left in my eyes is dealing with, what is in my honest opinion, a pathalogical lair who has to make up stuff to feed his megalomania disorder. I can understand why people get pissed at him and don't want anything to do with him. Personally it's people like him that need out of the hobby, although if he put his "passion" for animal to good use... he could change the hobby. It's a pitty all these wierd people are making what would be a honest hobby so screwed up. I'm telling u it's a government conspiricy :).

hmm there is a glitch on the site.
Now it does not give an age on either of them.

Wait a second.
I found another gregory a bowman.
Same phone number

except he is listed as
Sepulveda, CA 91343
818-894-6635

Either way....He seems to be living with Daddy
 
Unfortunately I have to take back the part about the ages.
The site is not consistent.
I will not pay 10 bucks just for this guy.....he ain't worth it to me.

So there is the address.
There is the guy it belongs to....HENRY

and that is that.
 
all that other stuff should not be on the net.
Well maybe your birthday.
But medical records and stuff will not be on the net.

Now if you have "connections"
you can find any phone number unlisted, listed, even cell phones.
these people can tell you how often you pay your phone bills. What is your address. What is your address prior to that one. What is your address prior to that one and so on and so on.

As far as the net.
I can only trace the addresses that are listed. and the phone numbers that are listed. If it is not in the phone book. Then I can't find it. But I know someone who can. Or at least knew...he has not written in a while. my last couple inquiries went unanswered as well. Hope he did not get fired.


Also I found the glitch on the website.
It is required that you put in an estimate for the age.
If they have an age listed they show it to you.
Otherwise....if they don't...they show you the estimated age you entered.

I was wondering why I was so right on guessing both ages. Now I know.. D@mn glitch set me up for failure.
 
Henry Bowman, eh?

Anyone read Unintended Consequences by John Ross?
 
Rich.... Does it have pictures??.... If it doesn't, I haven't sen it!.... lol

Dave.... It was LAST NIGHT???.... I could have sworn I did it this morning.... that's par for the course, though!.... lmao

Can anybody tell me why I NEVER forget to ship something, I've never got a shipment mixed up (even when I send out 6 at a time), but, I can't remember the simplest things???, like a name, a time, a date, etc, etc!

Ritchie.... The only papers that I have had delivered to me was "The New York Times", last Sunday!!.... I'll let you know if anything else shows up!.... Like I'm worried?.... hiss hiss, puff puff, rattle rattle.... etc.!

....Neil
 
I went to the who is doing what page.

Good luck with your lawyer.
 
Uh Oh!!!!.... Well, I guess if you folks want ANYTHING I have for sale.... you had BETTER buy it NOW!!.... It seems I might be going away for a while.... I'm just glad my debts are all paid off!!.... Aahhhhhh!!!!.... lmao

Man, I love this!

Remember, I've got nothing to do anymore!!.... hahaha

....Neil
 
That does not look anything like the person I met.
I live near his area, and my girlfriend lives right in the area. I will be in the vicinity most of the weekend. I would have no problems meeting up with Gregory and taking photos of the snakes we are talking about.
I dont think it is necessary, but an option. I would not think photos of him are needed, but if he wanted I would have no problem taking them. Is there a need to doubt his identity? I do not believe that he is trying to play himself off as another person? If there is some evidence to this point, please point it out to me.
Thats about all I personally can do to help resolve this problem. The only reason I originally posted was because I noticed this thread being one-sided and there were issues completely ignored. I also am very curious as to the outcome of this matter and hope that it can be resolved sometime soon in some way shape or form.
Thanks, Tom Baker
