    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....

Just wondering if anyone has had any dealings with him. He runs an operation called Reptiliandreams.com. Has been very courteous and quick to answer questions(definite plus). I think I am going to buy one of his Colombian boas and was just curious if anyone could relate some personal experience with him. Thanks in advance. <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
 
Mike Greathouse means: fantastic animals and fantastic service. I bought my very first snakes from him and they are outstanding! Not to mention that he has been a great help ever since. This man loves his reptiles and it shows. - You can't go wrong with Mike!!! <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
 
We had the opportunity to meet Mike at a show where he was set up directly across the aisle from us. His obvious enthusiasm and care for his animals was evident from across the room. We would certainly give the "thumbs up" for anyone considering a purchase from him and would give him 2 "thumbs up" if he hadn't ended up with a gorgeous blue Guyana female we had our eye on. Just kidding Mike!

Ectothermics recommends Mike heartily and we're sure you will be satisfied as well.

Mike has been nothing short of stellar in his dealings with me to this point. I am not an experinced herper by any stretch of the imagination, as a matter of fact, this will be my first snake, and Mike has absolutely been the most patient and helpful person I think I could have hoped to come across. He is quick with his replies and thorough in his answers. I hope that the wonderful Colombian I am buying from him is just half as impressive as Mike has been. You can believe that i will let you all know as soon as I get it, and I am sure I will be just as impressed with it as I have been with Mike.
To Mike, thanks cannot begin to say enough. You have definitely made this purchase a very easy and comfortable one for me, and that is saying alot. I hope only the best for you in all your endeavors, and in the future I will look to you if I decide to expand my collection. Thank you again.

p.s. Thank you to the webmaster for providing such a wonderful service as this BOI. You provide a wonderful opportunity for customers to praise the honest, and to shed light in the shady. For that you cannot be thanked enough.
 
I believe all the previous posts had said everything I would have said about Greathouse. I have done business with him in the past and have nothing but good things to say. Just ad me to the list of all the extremely satified customers. Thank you Lee Frey
 
Just to update everyone. I have received the boa(colmbian) and he is much better than described. Mike has definitely proven himself to be an honest and caring herpist. Packaging was great and despite a problem with UPS and their delivery, the snake was in great condition, is absolutely gorgeous, and highly active. I would buy from Mike again without a second thought. Cannot say enough about him, honestly.
Thanks again Mike, and I will keep you up to date on the snake and his progress.
 
I bought some snakes from him over a year ago, and still remember him as one of the good people. The snakes are still doing very well.  Thanks Mike!
