    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....

On second thought~ I'm just in a mood tonight. Ignore me. I know y'all were just poking fun. Back to the topic~

This particular Red Neck Reptiles is looking for a loop hole every chance he gets. Shame to see
 
"Your right~ I over reacted~ I'm sure entirely due to my already being in a foul mood~ y'all were just poking fun~ and I poke fun at Rednecks often enough too. I appoligize for getting snotty"

Glad you are not angry with us. Afterall, Bruce made me do it. He is always getting me into trouble. Anyway, I hope your day is better tomorow! Are you going to the Anaheim show?
 
I was just thinking about the Redneck title-then comes to mind Skin Cancer-its my job sorry. If you have not sent him a link I am more than willing to do so.
 
Sam,
Thanks for posting this information. You paid for a live snake so that’s what you should’ve received. Live arrival is a given you don’t pay for dead merchandise. Besides as far as we can tell there was no carrier delay or problem, so that’s ruled out. Asking you to claim for the death of the animal also shows he has no idea about the policies of the carriers, UPS in particular.
The only person who has control over shipping is the shipper. There’s no such thing as shipping “under duress”. If temperatures were not adequate he should have delayed shipping. Shipping a ball python a few days later after eating such a huge meal is another big no-no. And I agree with those that have stated that the rat had not been eaten 5 days ago (unless of course the snake was kept in sub-standard temperatures).

Hope this individual comes to his senses if not, his days selling reptiles are numbered. :(

Regards.

Excellent Neil, you're right there was a long email to Bob Clark, but no response was posted, was this man an ex employee, or just another idiot with "name dropping syndrome"????

Sam, have you sent Michael a link? I would be curious as to his thoughts right about now.


I told him I would post my experience on the BOI and he said he would leave feedback for me on here as well. I hope he will come on here and explain everything. One can only hope right?

Neil,

I spoke to Bob earlier today and explained the situation to him. Bob told me that Mike was a previous employee that sort of just stopped showing up. The whole purpose for me contacting Bob was to see if hewould forward the message to Mike. Bob just said he's not really in contact with Mike much.
 
To be honest with you, I do not know what he can say to help his situation. His own words in his e-mails are damning enough to cause Jim to serve him with the old Toilet Claw. He is done as far as I am concerned.
 
James,

I really didn't expect much from Bob. I know there wasn't much he could do. I just thought that because he was a previous employee ans since Mike drops his name all the time I thought they still kept in touch often. Mike even said he was going to have Bob ship her out for me but couldn't because Bob was on his way to Daytona.

I was sort of at the end as to what I can do since I could not reach Mike. At first I thought the worse. I thought that Mike was in the hospital and maybe thats why he never responded. Well turned out he was in the hospital but then came back at me with the its your fault defense and the whole me scamming him just made it worse. After that there was no more pity from me.

Sam,
Whats the problem? Why do you have to go thru Fauna to send me an e-mail? Are you trying to cause problems? I'm really not understanding your tactics or reasoning here.

Mike

I didn't need to see anymore and you probably did not either. His first response says it all. Trying to redirected and he makes it your problem.

If you said that Michael, YOU are a sorry excuse for a businessman. You are responsible as the SELLER to make sure the temps are correct. YOU are responsible for when the animal was feed. You should be responsible to deliver what you promised "Alive". This was not a shipping company error; this is your error. Make good on it.
 
"Redneck Reptiles"?!!!

Sorry, but I have to agree with Bruce 100%. Anyone who names themselves with such a perjorative term will never get my business.

And if you haven't noticed what redneck really means, here's your sign. If you think "Here's your sign" jokes are funny, you might be a redneck!

Hard working folks are the best! They should demand to get paid what they are worth instead of empowering their masters.
 
Sam, just incase there was any confussion, when I said, "To be honest with you, I do not know what he can say to help his situation. His own words in his e-mails are damning enough to cause Jim to serve him with the old Toilet Claw. He is done as far as I am concerned." I was referring to Mike, and it was in reference to this statment that you made, "I told him I would post my experience on the BOI and he said he would leave feedback for me on here as well. I hope he will come on here and explain everything. One can only hope right?" Basically I just want to make sure that you or anyone thinks that comment was in regard to Bob. I should have quoted you and I should have used Mike's name. I got lazy.
 
Crap, I can't even seem to form a decent sentence today! to early for me I guess. Anyway, that should have read:

Basically I just want to make sure that you (or anyone else) do not think that comment was in regard to Bob.

Mike, you are the man! May the Union movement live long and prosper.
If only Clinton was still President. We would still have peace and prosperity.
:cool:

LOL
you the man,I wish i could give more rep but it wont let me...lol
 
It always astonishes me...

...when someone is willing to sell their public reputation for a few hundred bucks. Mike has effectively placed himself on literally hundreds of "do not buy from" lists based on his Emails alone. I can guarantee that this situation will cost him a hell of a lot more than $400 going forward.
