    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....

Just got the OK from Samantha to post a portion of her conversation with "Colton"...another interested party that was in line to get taken...followed by a photo that Colton received from "John"...and did a background check that revealed more than one arrest!

I’m at my daughter’s soccer game but I’ll start with two big ones:

1. Using other people’s photos
2. Threatening to sue

the ID

Georgia ID and address and he’s selling and trying to buy venomous snakes? It’s illegal to own venomous in GA. We all know he doesn’t really have the Mangshans he posted for sale so cheap, but if you’re going to try to scam people at least do your research on animal laws before someone reports you to the authorities in Georgia and they show up at that address.

I must say... The way YOU arw acting with the taunting and provoking makes the reptile community look like total crap. Just to be blunt, it makes you all loom like a bunch of immature bullies. Kids come on here and you act like that? Grow up. Learn some manners instead of trying to start fights.

Bro are you freaking dense? You are going to complain about people trying to start fights when YOU WERE THREATENING PEOPLE? Seriously, are you this dumb in real life or are you trolling?

You came in here threatening people who were questioning your really shady answers, got completely destroyed and now you're pulling the bullying card? LOL

Like Lucille said, if you had any sort of minimal education in law, you would know copyright infringement is a no-no.

Actually as crazy as it sounds and is, it is exactly the opposite.
You cannot legally own any native to Georgia snake in Georgia even if it is a harmless rat snake.
But you CAN own any venomous you desire if it not local to Georgia
Crazy yes, true also unfortunately yes

I think you’re incorrect. Seeing as the last officers I spoke to in GA state it’s illegal, along with several people I know within the state. But here’s one of the last cases where someone caught felony charges for keeping exotic venomous.

More info just fell into my hands...from a potential buyer of his...it's a Georgia ID card and states John Buhs will be 30 in December. Now...maybe common core is different than the math I grew up on...but if you're 23 now...I don't see you being 30 in 10 months. The source also ran a background that states he's been arrested more than once!

This would make way more since about being in the army in 2006, but if he left the army as stated in 2006, he would still be too young at 30, unless maybe he washed out and is still claiming service.
 
I've suspected this person as bieng dustin draper since the moment I seen his viper ad and ironicly he is from GA too. Also very recently there was the Cajun reptiles thread I believe was Georgia also where they spent days arguing that they weren't scammers and wound up attempting to rip off the first person who sent them money by using thier card to open a PayPal and steal $250. Very odd coincidences.
