    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.

    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....

a couple of things. I hope I can do this for the following reasons.
1. I am Ritchie Luna and it is my job
2. He bought from RitchieReptiles same person different personality.

Okay here goes.
1. If the dad is an albino granite.................then the babies are 100% het for albino...........NOT 50%

2. EDWARD LUJAN ?!?!?!? I hope there are two people using the same e-mail addy. Because that is not the name of the guy who e-mailed me from that e-mail addy. Shoot ....that is not the name of the guy who paypaled me from that e-mail addy.

What you can do.
1. ask for pictures of the dad.
2. ask for pictures of the baby. (I will let you know if it is at least6 a possible het for granite.)
 
Well the reason I was asking is because I was bidding on a 66% het pied male ball python and a 100%het albino ball python. If you check the reptibid site. Dabadboyzrule is the seller of both of these items. The highest bidder is Piedbaldpimp. Point is Dabadboyzrule and Piedbaldpimp is the same person. He's bidding on his own items and therefore trying to cheat the system. That shows me right there that this guy is dishonest. I would like to see some of his paperwork that he supposidly(is that a word?) has for these hets. Also a couple months back he had a 10ft female redtail boa for sale. I inquired about it. He said it was a normal redtail boa and that he would sell her to me for $550 plus shipping. I told him no thanks and found a better deal from someone else. A little while after this he posts an ad for a 10ft female redtail boa het for albino but with no paperwork. Now I don't know if it was the same snake, but it sounded a little fishy to me.
 
here is another of his ads
albino burm het for granite f/s f/t
hi I have a unsexed albino burm that is het for granite it is 6-7 feet long tame I will sell to best offer by 20th of this month or trade for ball pythons

As aforementioned. The guy who bought ball pythons from me have the same e-mail addy. Comes from the same place. But has a different name.
 
According to the registration info here on FaunaClassifieds, piebaldpimp and dabadboyzrule are both Edward Lujan.
 
So the guy has been bidding on his own stuff, using a different screename? Nice!

Total lack of ethics on his part. Not only does it make it look like there is more activity on his offerings than there would otherwise be, but it also artificially raises the price in any bidding war that might take place.

That's the type of dishonesty that brands a person as one with whom never to do business, in my book. Hope it was worth it, Edward!

:angry:
 
The really odd thing on that particular auction is that 1medusa kept increasing his bid, even though no one else had bid higher.

Sounds like kids to me.
 
Have you reported this to Reptibid? Getting them banned from using that site might prevent someone from getting taken by one of his scams.
 
Of course...just having the username "piedbaldpimp" or "dabadboyzrule" would be enough of a reason for me not to send them my hard earned money
 
Usually shillbidders work in small groups so as to increase the validity of their item getting so much attention. They will almost always have a couple people on a couple differant comps bidding the item up. Several groups were investigated and charged for doing this on Ebay. To be honest I cant remember what became of the whole thing. VERY happy I saw this thread, I was thinking of inquiering about one of his snakes. Got to go find my "bad guy" book and add a new entry. Thanks

In my experience, Reptibid has been un-responsive to both questions and comments regarding their site and their users.

I listed an item there recently just to see what kind of exposure I would get. That item closed with a bid from a "DeadBeat Bidder" When I questioned Reptibid about their policy in such matters, I was never given the courtesy of a response. Likewise, when I ultimately reported the bidder with their "Report Fraud" link, I never received a response.

So I think that the BOI will be much more effective in putting a stop to this fool.

Just my opinion.
 
Actually either the guy has taken his stuff of the auction.
OR
Reptibid has been improving on fraudulent auctioneers.

Because it is no longer there.


p.s. The name of the guy with the same e-mail addy is Micheal Gonzales. The name on pay pal is also Micheal Gonzales.
 
Response

Gee they are artificially running up bids, seem to be lying about the same animals and yes OF COURSE they can guarantee the "het's". What's the guarantee? Ray Goushaw HBR (Yes, I usually say, "thanks" then my name and Company initials... Oh well...
 
more losers...

Hey guys,

Come on! This is pretty close to the scam jesse underhill
usually runs. You know, with the fake hets? This guy
just compounds his lies with the fake bids.

And look at his screen names! How many reputable
businessmen refer to themselves as 'pimps?'

I think that one of the cardinal rules of buying hets is
to ALWAYS ALWAYS buy from a reputable breeder
(Bob C., NERD...and so on)

I would avoid this little punk at all costs!

Sincerely,

Gino 'In Da Bronx' Beniquez

now that is freakin either from pure ignorance or from the hope of everyone elses ignorance...

It was a long confusing story.
A "friend" was trying to get the real story on these. Dabadboyzrule/piebaldpimp and sarelox seems to have something fishy going on.

According to dabadboyzrule. Piebaldpimp is his uncle and selling his 100% het female. And he was bidding on the female that the badboyzrule had up on the auction. You ask why his own uncle was bidding on his nephew's snake? Well Micheal/dabadboyzrule...is so nice that he decided to give the general public a chance to buy his breeding ready ball python. Then someone posted about them and how they seem to be upping the auction price. All of a sudden someone "won" the auction. All of a sudden piebaldpimp was pissed that he could not erase his ad on fauna (because I locked it iin time)....because he has sold his 100% het for albino ball for 1,000. meanwhile dabadboyzrule aka Micheal was suppose to be getting another 100% het from VPI this week.

Meanwhile. Micheal is dabadboyzrule. His uncle is piebaldpimp and his name is also Micheal. his dad is also Micheal. Now you are wondering why the different tnames on the profiles of piebald pimp and dabadboyz rule. Well his nephew was the one who registered them. So his nephew put his own name on both accounts that did not belong to him. And if anyone wants proof of what I just posted......Too bad. I just got a new hardrive at home. It all happens to be in my old harddrive. it will take time for me to post the 20 or so e-mails just to get the above information. It is easier to milk a bull than to have my "friend" get info from this/these guy/guys.


Long story short. Micheal/piebaldpimp the uncle was selling his het so he can buy the het from his nephew/dabadboyzrule. meanwhile the badboyzrule/micheal was putting his 100% het up for auction so he can get his money back for the 100% het that he is getting in this teusday...TODAY.

Confusing huh?

Now these guys are all registered on fauna. They have read this thread. Do you see them replying?

Okay. I am not one to dictate what people should breed what animals too. But if they have a bunch of het for albinos that are ready to breed this season.......
Why did they bother purchasing my 20 -25 ball pythons from RitchieReptiles.?
 
Hey Ritchie,

It's funny.. he told me this same story, but it was a 66% het from Mark Bell. He even offered to show me the receipt. The receipt was NOT from Mark Bell, in fact it identified them as being produced by someone else.
 
Well I do not like to get involved.
But I guess it is time for me to wear my other hat since Ritchie Luna mentioned my wanna be business (RitchieReptiles)

Just to clear the air. I am not affiliated with these people. I do not know what they will use my normal ball pythons for. Nor do i care. That is not my job.
My only job is to make sure my customers are satisfied.

They were great to do business with.
I wake up one day with a payment for ball pythons.
They told me which ones they wanted.
They gave me addy and phone number.
I shipped. and boom it is all done.
They were happy. I definately needed the cash (it is tight lately or should I say always).

So that is my personal involvement with these people.
