    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....

I can't believe I forgot him. John Bought a pair of albino emoryi and he was very very good guy to deal with. Thank you John.
 
John is One of the Best!!!

It does not surprise me that you list John as an excellent customer. He is one of the best dealers going today. His customer service is above and beyond most. The stock I have received from him was in top shape and shipped in the best possible way. I would assume that he would show the same excellence going the other way!!! You can't miss with him!! Just my $.02!

I purchased a pair of striped creamsicles from John not too long ago, great service, excellent packaging, and of course... amazing snakes. Highly recommended!
 
I've purchase at least a few hundred corns and kings from John, you'd figure buying that many I'd at least get one fussy eater out of the bunch, nope, not one, awesome animals awesome service, all around awesome guy.

Johns a great guy!!!!

I have bought from John and the customer service, packaging,shipping and animals were all Great, He'sthe kind of person we need a whole lot more of in the reptile trade.
 
I just bought a 1.1 pair of brooksi from John. Excellent animals, excellent price, excellent communication, and just an overall excellent transaction. Not only was he quick to answer e-mails, but he also called me to finalize the deal and see if I had any questions about the brooksi themselves before he shipped them out to me. I got the impression that he really cared where the animals were going, which is always a good feeling to get about someone I'm buying from. Sure enough, the brooksi arrived looking healthy and alert. They're also HUGE! and were obviously very well fed. You can certainly buy from him with confidence.
 
I have been John's neighbor at the Expo for quite a few years now.
He's always treated people right.
I bought stuff from him this past weekend without any second thoughts.
I even sent a few people his way when I knew he had something they were looking for.
Good Guy, Good Snakes!
Keep it up John
 
I haven't bought from John, but we did meet in person at the Tampa show. I saw his stock which appeared to be of high quality and also quite healthy. He is knowlegeable and interested in hiis animals, and also seems to be quite upstanding.

Based on my first hand observations I would not hesitate to buy from him should he have something that I wanted to buy.
 
another order...

Just purchased another decent sizes group of hondurans and brooksi from John, man thay are awesome, check this out, I purchased 3 hypos from John and due to the price break he gave me I told him 3 decent males would work, hell dude sent me 2.1 super killer hypos and on the brooks kings I told him males would do and he hooks me up with pairs. KICK@$$ dude...many thanks...
This guy is a shinning example of how it is done, not only did he hook me up on animals he didn't have to send, but he was also willing to ship animals I purchased from a couple others breeders who he is freinds with for me. In all the guy bent over backwards to make sure I was taken care of...

Also a note of recognition to Tim Thomas and Jeff Myers for there excellant animals and help...Can't wait till Daytona...
