    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Anyone know about hank pyles from ohio? I did a trade with him last week for an apple ipad. Sent him the tracking info. He recieved the snakes the next morning and said he was happy with them. He told me his girlfriend shipped the ipad on Monday but didn't give me a tracking number. I've texted him repeatedly asking for a tracking number or who he used to ship and still havn't gotten any info. The only response i've gotten is that he shipped for second day delivery and that I will need to sign for the package. I don't know that he even shipped. I really hope I'm wrong, and if so, I will gladly admit to being paranoid or whatever. Either he shipped and I'll get the package today or I got ripped off. Either way he is not being professional at all.
 
HeyChris, I've dealt with Hank once before and did a straight up sale. I sold him a snake and the deal went through with no problems. Sending you a pm too.

Not yet but...

The Ipad did not arrive... but he did call me tonight. He said his girlfriend shipped usps 2-3 day delivery. If that is the case it should arrive tomorrow at the latest. He said he was out of town and didn't have a tracking number because his girlfriend shipped. I'll give it a couple of days and see how things play out. I will make a response to this thread either way. Chris Kindred
 
I talked to a supervisor at USPS and he said there was no record of any package shipped to me or my address. I traded a white albino tiger retic worth $350, a really nice female Pastel worth $175, a male Mojave ball worth $150 and it cost me $125 to ship to him. So I'm out $800. I've tried to call him but it goes straight to voicemail. Go Figure. Still no tracking info and now I know why. Don't do business with this guy. He is a thief and a liar.
 
I talked to hank a few minutes ago. He still says that the ipad was shipped but doesn't have a tracking number with him. USPS Supervisor called back and said there may be a package on the way but he doesn't know for sure without tracking info. I take back what I said that he is a thief and a liar. I don't know that for sure yet. We'll see.
 
Specified 2-3 day delivery via USPS is usually Priority Mail. There is no tracking number unless one purchases delivery confirmation - which is a sorry excuse for tracking since it is not updated along the way. It will be scanned when accepted by USPS and again at delivery. Sometimes there may be an update posted in the evening, but I wouldn't call it a regular occurence. All that service does is confirm that something was shipped, and that it was delivered.
 
I am really close to him. I might be able to help you PM me the address and phone number. I will see what I can do.
 
He got me too, I was going to give him until next Tuesday, but it looks like we have a trend. Stay tuned, I will post a thread on my own. I have a ton of info on him, I have been digging into this guy for a week now...
 
update! Hank sent me a text saying there was a mix up with shipping. He said he would ship himself and I would have a tracking number but Tuesday the 20th. I'll let everyone know tomorrow if I recieved a tracking number.
