    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: Corey at Estillian Reptiles

Corey is definitely one of the good guys. I've bought animals from him before, and would not hesitate to do so again once I get start building my collection back up. The animals were top-notch, and Corey was about as honest and sincere as they come.
 
Definite Good Guy

Corey sold me a pair of Elaphe carinata about 2 years ago. They were and are still fantastic healthy snakes and the transaction and shipping were flawless. I would not hesitate to do business with him again.
 
Coreys fairly local to me and Ive known him for several years now, to date Ive yet to see a below perfect animal in his possession. Hes a super nice guy, sticks to his word and backs it up 100%....I wouldnt ever hesitate to do business with him.
 
GOOD GUY

I have traded and bought from corey and he is a GOOD GUY, all animals from him are HONESTLY presented ,you will get what you are buying from him. he is a class act:D
 
Well, I have to say, from all of the positive reviews, I decided to go through with buying from him. From what everyone said, I thought I would be dealing with a good guy, I was wrong. I payed for seven childrens pythons. Days before they were to ship, one escaped. He notified me and asked if I wanted it replaced by something else or if I wanted the value refunded. The snake turned up, no harm, no foul. At this point I knew I was dealing with an honest guy. The snakes shipped and arrived as planned. They all looked healthy and alert. He took time to answer all my questions, before and after the sale. I went into this thinking I would be doing business with a good guy. Corey isn't a good guy, he is an honest, knowledgable, helpful, great guy to do business with, and I only hope I will be able to do business with him again in the future. He is an asset to the herp community.
 
You almost had me fooled. LOL! When you started going on about the escaped snake, I kept expecting a sad ending and was having an internal battle with the idea of something going bad with him. You see, I bought a female corn from Corey just last month. I thought he was great and so I couldn't believe what I was reading! LOL! The snake I purchased from him is twice as big as my other 02 females so I know he feeds and takes care of his animals well. ;)
 
You had it right he is a great guy with whom to do busniess. I bought 9 House Snakes from him in 2001 and they were shipped well, all in good health. Corey was a gentleman, honest, and polite.
