    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 Dabadboyzrule/Piedbaldpimp??

These are the same guys that called me names and were upset that I didn't trust them when I asked for paperwork or proof on the hets! Suddenly they have proof? Even if they did have paperwork they are still 50% or 39% possible normals. I liked the jump from 66-100%. LOL Ray HBR
 
ALL THIS IS HYSTERICAL!!!

I saw this not too long ago and connected it with an ad he/they had on kingsnake for a common, but 10 foot long and HEAVY, female colombian bci. Not a terribly expensive morph that attracts attention like these 'hets', yet still an attempt to swindle..

SO... I would be interested in such a beast, AND I was in a 'fun' mood, since i've been swindled a bit lately and in this case, had the upper hand..

I msg him and say that I am interested in the boa but have heard of negative information on him.
I proceeded to say that if he sent me the snake first, I would immediately send him the money he asked for, along with an additional price ($50-$100) for his act of faith..lol

I told him my record is clean and I mentioned some well known references....

DIDN'T EVEN RESPOND!!!

lmao

'we all have the same name because we all look alike'
lmao

take care guys, Joe Rollo

Michael

1. I thought he told people that his uncle bought this so he can breed it. I also thoguht it was on reptibid and his uncle won the bid or something.

2. in June 2003 RitchieReptiles sold him two normal male ball pythons.

3. His supposed 2001 is feeding on rat crawlers.

4. I know some of the ball pythons I had from June are feeding on small Rat crawlers.

I am not saying anything. I just pointed out some things that happened as I saw them

You guys are smart enough to add the parts together
 
Laughable indeed

The same thing happened to me as did Joe. I e-mailed this guy a while back in reference to his 10ft+ 0.1 Col. boa ad on KS. I offered to have him drop ship the animal to me in lieu of his reputation here.
This is my exact e-mail:
Subj: 10ft Female boa

Hello,
I am very interested in the Adult Proven (10ft) Female boa that you have posted on Kingsnake.com. However, you seem to not have a reputation and according to the BOI, what little rep. you do have is negative. With this in mind, and since I have a very good rep, what I propose is this: Send me the animal (drop shipped/on the arm) and upon arrival/good inspection, I will be more than happy to paypal you your $350 asking price and give you some good marks on faunaclassifieds.com. If you have any questions as to my reputation in the business do a search for Razor Reptiles on the BOI. Please get back to me and tell me what you think of my offer.
Regards,
Raymond Martin

To this day... Still no reply! What does this say? You be the judge.
P.S. I would have posted this immediately but, I've been incredibly busy since the incident... I hope no one got taken.

Thanks for looking,
Ray Martin
 
Just as a summary

The uncle, the nephew and the dad all are named Micheal Gonzales because they "look alike". (well that is what they say)

Micheal Gonzales is using Micheal Sanders as his reference to sell his fake piebald hets.

Micheal Sanders happens to have the same IP address as Gabriel finch. Link in post above.

Micheal Sanders and Gabriel Finch must look alike to have the same IP address too.

This is proof that scammers accross the country are teaming up to rip you off. Be careful everyone
 
On page 4

The 17 yr old calls it an "action" instead of auction, and I believe the "uncle" used the same "action" instead of auction too. Seems like the same person to me.

Dave
 
Yeah, I just checked it again..

On page 3, the "uncle" calls it an "action," and on page 4, the "nephew" calls it an "action."

Dave
 
Oh come on, give them the benefit of the doubt! The "u" key is broken. They do claim to live in the same house don't they? :D
 
I talked to the same guy...

We got a few emails from him as well in reply to one of our kingsnake ads searching for female ball pythons.

From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
have a pair that are 1500 cash or 2k in trades, 1.1 boa albino babies, 1.1 woma babies or adults, etc. they are offspring's from bob Clark's albino female and 100% het male. the 0.2 females I have posted are from a vpi albino female and a vpi het male there were 3 albinos and 4 hets in the clutch this was in 2000 I sold the adult pair that produced them and I sold the rest of the babies I am selling them because I am going to focus on my pieds and het pieds and my albino boas and albino retics so far I was offered 2000 for them I will guarantee you there genetics or 100% refund if you don't want the 1.1 I am going to post them up and i will try to get some more PICS for you thanks let me know what you think thanks


Another after we asked for papers, ect....

From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
OK the 0.2 don't have papers because I breed them but like I said I guarantee there genetics and if you do breed them to an albino or a 100% het for albino male you will get at least 1 albino or your money back and my partner has the 1.1 but I think they have papers thanks I will send you PICS later tonight or tomorrow morning sometime do you have any boa or retic morphs to trade?


Another after we yet again requested more info and pictures....

From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
OK there is PICS on the add and they aren't proven yet and they are eating 2 medium rats a week they are both tame I don't know how much they weigh snd I have been offered 2000 for both so far thanks I breed their parents to make them so I guarantee their genetics if you can prove that you breed them to a male albino or a 100% het and there is no albinos I will refund your money 100% but I will want the babies and both adults back thanks


And another a few days later after we expresed our disapointment with the inconsistancy and lack of information.....

From: [email protected]
To: [email protected]
I will send you all that info in a few days my computer crashed and I am using a friends so I will try to get you the info ASAP thanks


Followed by an email to him stating we were not interested. End of story.

It seemed like I had seen the exact same pictures posted in ads claiming these snakes were first pied hets, then albino hets, then pied het again. Thought it would be interesting to see his reponse and if the ads could very well be legitimate. Didnt think so, and then I run into this thread today....

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. God I love the BOI. :D

Funny part about it I keep seeing the pictures of two snakes in these ads, and then I read here he bought two from ritchiereptiles. Seems like he's trying his hardest to make a massive profit off some normals. Would not be the first time.

Hope nobody gets scammed by this tool. For a second I thought this guy and the guy here were the same person or working together...

Oh well, seems like theres a few of them out there currently. Be careful.
 
I am going to focus on my pieds and het pieds

He says to you in e-mail that he is concentrating on them.
Then why is he trying so hard to sell them?
First at the auctions...then now on kingsnake.

He produced 9 pieds and no pictures. "sold them all"

hey I guess I can't blame him. Some people when they work with a certain morph ...they actually keep it. Others like him. Who never had, it actually and conveniently sell it.
 
Re: I talked to the same guy...

I will refund your money 100% but I will want the babies and both adults back thanks


So let me get this straight.....they will sell you "100%" guaranteed hets. You'll breed them to your pied or het pied, and if you don't get any pieds, they want the animals back and ALL babies that were born? Would they then be getting het pieds from YOUR breeding?

What a crock of excriment..........

Man, these guys are desperate aren't they?

Thanks

Thanks

good point Todd.
Free hets they do not loose a thing. In fact they make out quite big.

how come I never thought of that? that is definately the way to get the het pieds I want.

hey everyone...I have a het pied female. $25. I will give the same guarantee as Micheal gonzales and his three selves. If you don't produce a pied...I will refund you your $25 and take back the animal and all its babies too. <-- sarcasm yall
 
Yeah thought you guys would love that one...

Needless to say the moron didnt bother replying soon as we caught on to his scam.
 
He is a customer of mine.
and I e-mailed him and told him how disappointed I was in him blah blahb blah.... no reply

feeling to ashamed to reply (we can at least hope)
 
I bet you make yourself another email account and mail him interested in purchasing them and he'll reply. :D
