• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

Has anyone had any dealings with this person? He has no website and no pics of the animal he's selling, so I'm rather wary.
He's posted a pair of LTC Russian Torts in the Kingsnake classifieds.
Any info would be great,

Thanks

Otter,,,
just ask them for some references....Not everyone that does not have a website ,,,or for whatever reason cannot post pics is bad... Just do your research,,,ask questions,,,and go with your gut....Alway's be careful,,,and try to take the proper precautions,,and usually things turn out for the good..
GOOD LUCK....

If you have the person's actual name, first and last- it would be far easier to get specific information...

While not physically in Massachusetts right this second, I am from Boston and know most of the herping community in New England (Although many of them don't know me unless I mention it, I'm incognito most the time), I'd be happy to either supply additional information if it's someone I know or look to obtain information if it isn't.
 
If they give you an actual name, mind posting it on this thread on the off chance that others from the area know the person they're asking about?

I haven't gotten any response to my offer but I'm always interested in the public opinion of people I (may) know.
 
Thanks for the responses

The day I posted here I also sent an e-mail through the Kingsnake classifieds to "Ball Pythons." As of yet, no reply. I suppose he wasn't interested in selling to a knowledgable person.
He posted no name or e-mail address, and I doubt now that I'll get any reply at all.
Another bad situation avoided due to fore-thought.
Thanks all,
Otter
 
Is the email address Hotmail, Yahoo or AOL?
Click to expand...

Having an AOL email does not mean that the person is a scammer.
Mark Kennedy has an AOL email and he is one of the best in the biz.
 
no email

Kingsnake classifieds protects those who post by not revealing the e-mail address unless you choose to do so. It works the same here on faunaclassifieds. If you send someone an email through the site, it doesn't actually reveal their email address.

Anyway, I'm no longer interested. There's no reason to have to wait a week for a reply from a seller, even just a quick one...
