    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....

Inquiry hank.pyles11

I've tried texting, and calling for two days... No response. Tomorrow is Friday... The end of the week. I should have a tracking number by now so my guess is there is nothing shipped. Hank keeps giving me the run around. GETTING OLD FAST!
 
So Hank sent me a text last night saying he was going to ship out Monday the 26th and that I would have a tracking number monday evening... get back to ya tonight to let everyone know.
 
Looks like you're being strung along unfortunately I'd look to other means of either getting snakes back or some other resolution as it doesn't look like he will actually ship.
 
yeah... I just don't know what else I can do. He already sold my ball pythons and I really don't think he would give them back anyway. They were A+ animals.
 
So he found time to sell your animals but not enough time to ship your payment (iPad)? Sounds very fishy to me. Sorry to see you are being treated this way. You would think he would be prompt in getting you your iPad once he received the snakes.
 
I was told by a moderator on here that "Hank.Pyles11" is also hboyles66, and also Dean Reptiles. Both of these accounts were recently banned due to the same issues with other people. I believe as well as the moderator that Hank.Pyles11 is a new account to get past the ban and the BOI threads.
 
Don't let him text and call you so much. You need to have him keep his lies in emails so you can use it as evidence against him if it comes to that.

NO - you were not told that.
I said I was initially suspicious of it, nothing more. I have not been able to confirm anything even close to that...and I have found online sales ads in the name Hank Pyles, using the same email address, dating back for several years (I think it was at least 6, but I don't have the information in front of me at the moment).
 
So Hank Pyles said he shipped the ipad. He gave me a false tracking number. It only has 15 numbers and no letters. I contacted usps to verify shippment and they told me that they have no record of shippment, and that the tracking number should have more than 15 numbers. Hank is again saying he is out of town... THIS IS BS. What can I do? I can't believe that fauna won't ban his account. He hasn't even responded to this thread. That should say something about his character.
 
OK so heres the latest. Hank Pyles aka Hank.pyles11 told me that he shipped the ipad Tuesday night the 27th. He provided a tracking number of 285288915000004. I checked ups usps and fed ex. It is not a valid tracking number, so I texted hank and told him that. Two days later he texts me that is was shipped fed ex ground not usps. I contacted Fed ex today and they told me what I already knew... not a valid tracking number. I gave him my name and address so he could do a general search. He verified that there was no record of anything being shipped to me or my address. Does this finally prove what I've known for three weeks now. Can anything be done to fix this? He is a liar and a thief. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Hank is a piece of work. He is a liar and a thief. I did get my snakes back, only after I used some of my connections to dig up info on the guy. One weekend before he returned my animals, he told me that he was out of cell service (but had wi-fi access) I PROVED to him, without a doubt that I knew where he was over the weekend. He seemed very bothered by the fact I could tell him exactly what city he was in and what time he was there. He sent me my stuff back shortly there after.

Here is his info.
Hank Pyles
497 Weinland Dr.
New Carlilse, Ohio 45344.

I know this for a fact. I have been in touch with the Clark County Sheriff's office, they already have a file on him, at this address.

My connection gave me more info on him that I would be happy to share, however, I'm fairly certain that the mods would have a real problem with me posting it publicly.

I know that he knows about this thread, he mentioned it the last time we spoke.

He's a coward and I seriously doubt that he will come up out of the hole that he spends his time in.
 
You would think that if Hank has time to bump his post in the boa section that he would have time to come and respond to this thread. I live in Ohio, if you dont hear anything within the next week send me a PM with his address and I will personally pay him a visit.
 
HANK, if your reading, this is Keith, we had one deal and it went fine. Apparently you deal with multiple snakes and your not helping yourself here (or others). Regardless of what you have going on, it's best to come clean, workout a deal that's fair to Chris and salvage whats left of your reputation, if any. I'm disappointed every time this thread comes across my email without a resolution. If you really appreciate our "rep world", then fix this. WE all have a responsibility to do what's right, go on our word, show we are honest and that we are not the scammers of the world, we need to be better than the rest!! Unfortunately YOU and people who do the "wrong thing" in regards to reptiles, hurt what we all want, which is freedoms to own and trade. SEND IT, give an apology and then just be quiet !! I take hits more than a lot of people because WE just don't need the "bad news" making the news. SO I urge you to make it right and stop being a "bad news maker". DEALS go bad for all kinds of reasons, it's how you handle the resolution that test your integrity!
