    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....

JoeP at DGS

mike you are too much...
I saw those "established" suri too.

If you were an expert like him.....it would only take you two days to establish anything...Including but not limited to bull$h!t
 
So let me ask you guys a question.  
How bad could this thread have hurt JoeP's "reputaion"?   Especially since he is bragging about selling animals in 5 minutes.  Seems as if his supposed lawsuit is to be successful he would have to show quite the opposite.  But according to his own posts, he is the super ETB saleman with more to come.  
Just an observation of mine.  

And one more thing, I think the header on his site is a joke and he just doesnt know it yet.  I mean come on, the only reason he is the 11th most popular reptile site is because we all have been watching what he will pull next.  NOT because of his super reputation and lack of real educational material.

And exactly how did he come up with number 11 anyway?  I see no counter like the ones on the front page of this site by TOP 300 Reptile Sites counters.

Is this more made up lies on his behalf?

Still so many questions and so little time.

Once again, it took only a couple of hours and this one is now gone too. Thanks again to the several people who emailed, but, once again, it was the Toll Free that did the trick.


I don't plan on offering any more from my personal collection, at least for a while, however, I did just receive a nice group of Surinams which I will be posting individually within a few days. If you are looking for some nice healthy breedable adults, keep your eyes on T.A.C. Prices will range from $250-$300.

Thanks for the interest and GB.

Thats it.  I wander why he deleted it.  

That guy is amazing.  I wander what he has to hide.
 
Just curious?  

Has anyone ACTUALLY, OFFICIALLY been hit up with a lawsuit yet?  Or are threats still in the idle mode?
 
Ever hear of a Mexican Standoff?   <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

Neil....don't even kid around like that man.....

I am DEADLY with Burritos at 100 paces
so knowing that he has sick animals....people were still willing to buy?  that puzzles me...

Oh well.....if those animals he sold are sick....then I guess the people who bought them will start getting banned from his site.....I mean...that is how the trend seems to go.

Buy an animal from Joe P.
Animal is sick...
complain about it on the treeboa forum...
get banned from the site....
complain about it on the BOI......
get threatened with a lawsuit....

is that right?
or did I miss something?

actually he should not be suing anyone.....because according to him....he is implying that we are actually helping his business.  We should be getting paid for our promotional services...
 
Another DELETION for you Mike.

A Stunning Must See Animal. posted by Joe P. on April 20, 2002 at 20:40:59:

That took less than than 5 minutes! I guess I should have asked for more. The animal is now ON HOLD until Tuesday the 23rd, awaiting an overnighted check. Should that fail to arrive two other people have already stated their desire to commit to the animal so I'm sure he is effectively SOLD.
Thanks to those that emailed. It seems that the guys using the toll free usually lock it up first, so that's something consider next time. It's free, so what the heck <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>.

Maybe Tim Watley is the one buying them so quickly? After all, the shipping would be free! <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

A pic of the infamous puker from you know who.  Compliments of you know who when I purchased it.  No favors and not for shock value, just the truth.

Well, I went to the Ohio Reptile show.  Took Joes pic off this site so I wouldnt miss him.  But he never showed up. I even took Tim Watley's pic just to make sure they werent one in the same.  

I did see Tim Bowles.  He seemed like a real honest straight shooter.  He was even nice enough to buy me lunch.  Shame Joe never showed, Im sure Tim would have bought his too.  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>  

Provided he didnt puke it up on him.  Like his Emeralds do when they eat. <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

Just thought you guys might have wanted to know he was a no show again.
 
Well guess who just posted an ad on Kingsnake for some emeralds?

just wondering if he pulls out a thesaurus or dictionary for some of the words he uses?
 
Well at least we know Joe reads this site well.  He modifide his adds after trying to smart off at Matt Lerehs adds.  He has since stopped bragging about ALL his supposed sales and simply started to place a "sold" under there pics on his photo page or he erases the pics completely to cover his tracks.  So it would seem you can teach a dumb dog after all.  Wander why he changed?  Could it be that he was so arrogant that he didnt realize he was shooting his alleged lawsuite in the foot by running his mouth and bragging again?   Shame he had to learn about it through us here at the BOI.  I guess we are not the shipwreck he claimed us to be.

I have one more question to pose to you all.  Since he is trying to brag about being the #14 overall reptile site last month, exactly how many sites are registered in Bizrate besides his?   Do you guys know of any?  Who is he being compared to?  Let him link to the same counter that I see on everyone elses site and see how he does.

Here is his explanation to the question asked how he got rated so high.

I'd like to see one of the people who've purchased animals from Joe P post here on their postive experience.  

I'm curious because it seems to me Jopee is selling but no one is really buying, unless you count Tim Watley and the rest of the hotmail/yahoo make-believe crew.

Any takers?
 
I posted an invite on Joe's board a while back when someone on there asked about the BOI. Surprisingly enough, it got deleted.  I would welcome any positive feedback from Joe's customers here.
 
>>The story of my good experience buying from Joe:  I...ahhhh...ummmm, hmmmmm.  Come to think of it, I've never bought a snake from Joe - this despite a claim he posted somewhere back in his KS days that I purchased my first Chondo from him some 30 years ago.  I think he said it was a blue one, one of if not the first blue in the country...!  I wonder if it was a nice snake - prolly was...Chondros rule, you know...?...!...TW<<

I had no idea thats where you got started into GTP's Trooper.  Do you have any pics of that animal floating around by any chance?   <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'>
