    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: Ron Billingsley

I heard some pretty bad things about him and didn't want to believe any of what I was told. I bought a blood python and two or three days later came up with a respiratory infection and can't help but believe it all. Since then the snake has died.
 
He is terrible..
I have watched him move dead animals in his cages around so people dont know they are dead.
Why would you put dead animals out???
yeah i dont now either.
run away.. quickly.
 
I can't believe this guy is still out there. A few years back I bought a tiger rat snake from him. He guaranteed its health at the reptile show where I bought it for 2 weeks. The animal was active and looked healthy at the table. When I got it home, it passed sand and green stuff from its cloaca and died within hours. Ron gave me a run-around, saying he'd give me another snake and fighting me hard on the refund for over a month. I finally did get my refund, but he tried to slander my name on this forum and others. I would never go near his table again, let alone buy from him!
 
You have to ask yourself why some people bad mouth me. Like Dennis Blankenship above. He goes head to head with me doing Reptile Shows in Indiana. I won the Noblesville and Valparaiso shows. He has a show in Clarksville, and two defunct shows?? He’ll say or do anything to try and knock me down a few pegs. This individual is nothing but a trouble maker. I’ve been in business since the early 80’s. I have a large and successful wholesale business and run several shows. If ANYONE has issues with me, they are welcome to contact me and I always will work out any problems may arise. My number is attached to every ad I run. My contact information in on Facebook, Kingsnake.com, etc. I am not hard to find……. But happy to put it here 317-690-1614. Please contact me if you have any issues.

That has not been my experience. It took daily phone calls and/or emails and finally a Paypal dispute to get my money back. I put Ron in the same boat as I put the Kick Brothers- AVOID at all costs.
 
Well, your recollection is 100% different then what actually transpired. You purchased an animal, kept if for several weeks. Said it had “issues”. I refunded your purchase via Pay Pal and allowed you to keep the specimen. You’re a customer that people run from!!! You complain, you lie, you are not happy with anything anyone tries to do to solve a problem. Here you are, still complaining about something you got for free! But thanks for the trip down memory lane.
 
Hahaha it died THE VERY NIGHT I BROUGHT IT HOME! I got nothing for free you liar. I had to watch a beautiful snake due very painfully and then fight with you for weeks to get a refund.
 
Its always someone else's faiult for him. Always tries to make things up about others to try to discredit them.

I'm sure the dead animals I saw getting moved around were awesome and healthly also.
 
Yes, please read the thread. Every post. It should explain everything in detail…. The simple she said, he said….. Like it says, I gave her a discount on the specimen, and I even refunded her when she asked me too. Sand?? Please… I never use sand in my displays…. But please, just keep beating a dead horse…..
I stand by my statement. If someone purchases something from me, and they are not happy, all they have to do is contact me. I am not going to make every single person happy, that is inhumanly impossible. But I will try my best.
 
And I’m sorry Dennis you are have such a hard time with your shows. Personally attacking your competition only makes you look foolish. I would suggest you spend more time on your personality and less on attacking other people. Remember, it can come back and bite you on your rear……
 
Riiiighht.. Because your terrible animals have anything to do with my shows...
Your little Noblesville show has no effect on any of my shows by any means.
I couldnt care less about any show you run.
 
If it wasn’t for me and my so called terrible animals, you wouldn’t even have vendors!! I supply most of the vendors who do come to your little shows. Local Indiana people….. If you wish to keep kicking dirt, like a kid throwing a temper tantrum…. Maybe they will take their ball and go home….. Then you will be running these tiny little shows all by yourself…….
