    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Joe Pierce (BAD GUY)

Hey Rich, Joe has been posting on some corns snake forum, and has been logged on to cornsnakes.com. Thought you might like to know.

Good deal Vinny, I thought he might like to know that ol Joe has resurfaced. Someone noted on another forum that he has been gone nearly 18 months to the day, perhaps the rumors about him being in prison were true. And perhaps, now he has resurfaced in order to insure that all people that he slighted will be re-payed in full.
 
yea and I 'm the reincarnation of Christ. This is just tipical Joe do bad disaper for a 2 to 3 years and resurface. I have seen this before
 
Yea

I am friends with Rich and hate to see this ,hope Joe comes in and pays him what he owes.It would be nice to hear what happened. If Joe wants to continue to breed and sell corns he needs to give a explanation and no matter what it is, who will ever be able to trust him? Just my 2 cents!

You know Stephen, he has been on Cornsnakes.com (is online right now) and has been on other sites. He has even made posts and replied to posts, but he has yet to come here and say his side of the story. I have never dealt with Joe Pierce, but I would like him to come here and respond, I do not think that is to much to ask.

I think it'll be a safe bet that Joe's a no show. I would really love to hear his spin on this one!:censored:

Face it, if he was going to say something he would have by now.

No, but his bad dealings can't be swept under the carpet this time (as long as internet posts like these remain visible).....like some seemed to have been swept under the carpet in the past.
 
Noticed ole Joe popped up on cornsnalesource.com a whle back.. Now he shows up cornsnakes.com .. Quite frankly its disturbing to hear there has been no feed back, and things have not been made right.. Still squimish about dealing with any one after these last couple of years..

Its not going to be very easy anything, on one or two sites for Joe to sell or discuss much of anything ( This one and Rich's siginifigant other )...

Regards.. Tim of T and J
 
Has Joe retired from the California Hwy Patrol? If he's still with CHip, perhaps you can get hold of him through them, or at least contact his supervisor and file a complaint. Nothing to lose but a bit of time.

Well, I may as well jump in here too. I did a breeding loan with Joe Pierce to produce a bunch of Ultramel crosses and we were going to split the offspring. Long story short, I got the first shipment of snakes just fine. The second shipment (basically from the second clutches), all of a sudden he sold off the highest end animals from the group without asking. I called him on it, and he all of a sudden clammed up and refused to speak to me. After about a month of trying to contact him, he started posting on Cornsnakes.com again and still did not respond to my calls or emails. So I posted a similar bad guy thread there, and he turned around and posted that I was a horrible greedy nag who was only after as much money as possible (yadda yadda, lots of namecalling), and that's why he felt justified in not speaking to me. After lots of back and forth, some people siding with him and some with me, I finally said screw it, just send me "my share" of the hatchlings. It wasn't until... December? January? Something like that... where I actually got them, and we both agreed not to get in eachother's way again. The experience certainly soured me on doing breeding loans...

Needless to say, I don't think highly of Joe Pierce. This business with Rich Hume has only reaffirmed that sentiment.

I came across that thread on the cornsnake forums while thinking of ordering Lava somethings from Joe (since he seemed to be the main lava guy). I was completely taken aback at his attitude towards you and his sexist comments all while he had been the passive aggressive one in your dealings. I couldn't hardly believe it, but there it was, and decided never to buy from him. Sorry I didn't see that thread in time to give you any support, it was it was years buried when I looked him up and I didn't think dredging it to the top would have been useful.
This thread would have been a shocker but as it is, he's shown disreputable behavior before. I'm saddened Mr. Hume got burned too, he's always seemed like a really nice guy.
 
well he just posted on cornsnakes to gripe at Rich Z about something and Rich put a link to this forum, so he may actually look at it to see what people are saying about him... i personally havent had any dealings with anyone but the local pet store, but certainly hope you get your money Rich Hume...

Well just a few more days before the BOI is probably shut down and this important resource for our community is no longer available. People should really start getting their priorities straight and pony up the measly $25 (which will only seem even more measly once you get scammed) or risk losing this very important resource. I’m sure there’s lots of scammers and shady folks in our community watching and waiting for this to happen so they can more easily prey on us all so ACT NOW OR DON'T WHINE LATER.
