    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....

Inquiry Jerry Boyd, JerryBoyd88, in "Woodstock, IL"

^ahhh yes i actually contacted this guy about a possible deal on multiples! (the pastel girls) he said he could do $1500 shipped for all 3, 3 adult snakes that like 150ish shipping so guess about 450$ a pop which is around 50% market +the real odd thing is he was adamant about no paypal (claims because of the fees)...so anyways i didnt feel right about his response, but probably quicker for him because i would have followed up with a series of verifications he wouldnt have likely passed...odd though that there all 'sold' when i got this email so recently... anyhow to whomever purchased im very interested in how it goes for you and i hope for the best, did he tell you no paypal as well? pls keep us posted on how it goes.
 
also can somone pls email him as well as contact him on here to make him aware of this thread? if hes not in the wrong would be quite easy for him to clear all this up.
 
Hi all. I understand the worry and will try to ease your minds. The reason I dont do paypal is I just dont have an account and my friend said i could use his but only for small transactions as he is not "verified" and can only take out a small amount out of his account each month. After talking to a lot of people over email and phone it seems that everyone likes to use paypal so I am in the process of setting up one. I have even contacted people who have sent me funds and seemed worried about it and said they can put a stop to the check and wait until I set up paypal, they declined. I have a local coming to look at what I have left this weekend and after the hundreds of emails I just put the ad as sold. I cant take a hundred plus emails a day lol.... I am going to bed but will check back tomorrow night to answer anymore questions.
 
excellent. it is strange that the same day after emailing me his offer for all 3 pastel females he posted that all were sold :(

Tons of interest in the bee lol. All 3 I could do 1500 shipped if you can send funds a way that doesn't charge me fees. Thanks




10-19 3:51 pm"Hi everybody. I have been overwhelmed with emails about this group. I've tried my best to get back to everyone but if I missed you I am sorry. The female bee, 0.3 pastels, 0.1 pastel het ghost, and mojave spider are on hold pending payment. I will update the ad accordingly.
Thanks again!!!"

is it possible he sold all 3 in that space of time? DEFINENTLY, however i assume the purchaser saw this add through here so if he/she/they could simply say they purchased one or all of these 3 that would ease my mind a bit. i have no itention of slandering/accusing the seller of anything at this point, i just wanted to post what little communication ive had with the seller in keeping on topic with this thread, if he can come on here and clear things up and/or somone states that they had a succesful transaction pls accept my appologies for any suspicions.
 
and yes alot of people prefer paypal so its always a good thing to offer +even better if you can be a verified paypal seller ect...
 
how hard is it to set up a paypal account? and to become verified? :shrug01:
he still didn't answer too many questions people have posted. hopefully tomorrow...
 
Dont know how hard it is but the paypal site said it will take a few days to become verified..... What questions have I not answered as i just read this whole write up and cant find any questions towards me.... Thanks
 
HHMoore asked you in one of your threads to post your references. They never got posted by you. (though another member did post them here).
Other than that there's nothing. :p
 
Im posting our communications between us so everyone can see how quickly he responded to me and kept in contact as much as possible. plz note the times on the emails. plz read from bottom to top, and this is long. I will edit his fiances address as that is information that doesnt need to be made public. Hopefully this will help ppl understand he did stay in good communication with those he could have.

Again plz read from bottom to top

Lol, that is a great thing to have on a site.... wish people were saying good things about me instead of that crap though lol..... Anyways thanks for the heads up but I'm not worried about it. Once I ship out a few snakes, which should be wed. as I am suppose to receive a cashiers check tomorrow and I assume it will take a few days to clear into the account, I'm sure it will all be good. I can understand the worry though and get where those people are coming from. I am hitting the sack though.... Ill talk to you tomorrow night.

Thats ok as I dont have a paypal at the moment and dont really have to set one up yet. Plus a postal MO is backed by the government so its really secure for me.

You do sound like a really good guy and I look forward to getting him. Again thx for ur patience and understanding.

Also I figured I'd make u aware of this BOI post about u.

http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=206127

The BOI is the Board of Inquiry, since ur new ill give u a break down of it. This is where ppl discuss their expiriences about u and share information about good guys and bad guys. This is a thread requesting information about u. I dont see nuthing but alot of skeptism, not any real bad posts. I figured id make u aware about it. But if u respond be careful how u come off in the BOI, sometimes those ppl can tear u apart. Just stay cool mannered and professional, and u will be fine.


Ill save up my funds and ship u a payment first thing after I get a reference.

Um... I will let you know when its time to send the M.O.... I am in the process of setting up a paypal and getting verified so we should be able to use paypal if you can cover the fees they charge.... We can use my buddies paypal if something goes wrong with mine but he does not want large transactions because his account is not verified and he can only take out so much money each month. But hopefully I will have my account set up by then so you will have more safeguards than just sending a M.O. and hopefully that and when you get a ref from someone I have sold to you will feel good about buying the mojave spider
Thanks

Yea thats a good time I get out of work 7pm my time. And whose name should I put on the MO? Urs or ur fiances? I appreciate how understanding and courteous u are being. I've set out a payment plan and if all goes how I plan, I'd have him paid off by 11/19. Hopefully I can get some OT and finish earlier. Thanks alot and I hope everything will work out well for us.

Ok ill wait for the DL pic and then give u my answer...

I may still wanna wait for a completed transaction before I commit tho. Would u be willing to do that? Or do u have to sell him right now... Ill just put the money to the side and send it to you in a bigger payment, one less trip to the bank for u. Plz let me know how u feel about it.

Im sorry, I really feel bad because u sound like a nice guy, but sending money to another address that isnt the sellers is a common scammer move... would u be willing to take a pic of the mojo spider with a clear shot of ur driver liscense? Or like I said when u finish up with someone else and they give u a thumbs up I'd be more than willing to do it. I understand if u cant hold him due to finacial issues, but id rather missout and not lose money, than send money and then lose out on not getting a snake, I work hard for my money and I just cant afford a gamble. Again I apologize for any inconvience.

Im sorry man but a bunch of ppl who wanted to do local or even paypal said u either bailed quick, or never answered them. And now u give me another address thats not urs. Also a reference got back with me and says he does not know u. Its very suspicious, and I cant risk it.

If someone on the site with a good reputation purchases from u and gives a thumbs up I will reconsider. I apologize for the inconvience, its just starting to sound too good to be true. I cant go through with this.

My apologies,

thanks for posting this i wont deny he seems legitately interested in selling these animals and id like to give him the benefit of the doubt, im assuming you DID in fact get that drivers license pic and referrence you wanted/requested? pls let us know if/when you do thx.
 
havent got the pic, expecting it tomorrow those last couple were form this evening. will let u know if he post legit ID pics. just seems like a guy who got boned by circumstance and needs to get out while he can. I dont blame him for going low on the prices tho, took forever to move my boas and the last few I had to move at a loss. Hopefully this mojobee will make me feel much better about that! :D

Everyone keep us posted and as soon as someone completes a transaction with him post on here and let us know how it went. If he is a good guy I dont want him to wait another second for my money!

Glad I can be informative.

BTW the pics were killer, I'll see if I can get his permission to post a few up here!

Just to be clear the original pics I recieved from him are the ones im reffering to. I did ask for alot of face /chin shots, and he tried to accomodate my request tho I think he misunderstood. IMO that helps to show hes lil more legit then not.
 
Jerry,
The reasons that I inquired about you were mostly related to your account, but I quickly began to wonder about all the local people you were leaving hanging (especially considering that your ad specified that you preferred local sales). My post was necessarily vague, as I didn't want to make accusations based on insufficient information; and you weren't notified by me of this post because, quite simply, I was looking for people that had been in communication with you so I could ask them a few questions.
As long as you are aware of this thread, I'm curious - Why have payment sent to a different person in a different state?

Harald, did he specify that he wanted the MO made out to a different name?

Note to self: When it comes to MY money, the words "seems" and "sounds" are not in my vocabulary. When I have to send a lump of moola because someone "seems" or "sounds" honest, my money stays with me....did I mention I don't gamble either?:rolleyes::rofl:
