    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....

Good Guy Mike Matson from JRS Exotics

My Only response is WOW - your posts speak for themselves.

Have venemous snakes in Washington is illegal. PERIOD.

Why would I buy a $69 gecko from petsmart and resell it for $40 here? Everyone kows I produce 100's of cresties a year myself.

A no tresspass order is VERBAL from the police on site, they don't issue you anything. Care to try to come back in and test that theory with them?

You have ALOT to learn.
 
I now have spoke personally with the owner of ERJ which I have done business with before.

Mike Matson Jr. is NOT a customer of his.Upon state record checks he does NOT has a venemous pemit to house venemous snakes in this state, and he does NOT have a business liscence. Therefor ERJ has NOT sold him any reptiles.

He wanted to make that fact known here on this forum. Regardless of the statements being made on the venemous.org website, ERJ is not selling to him.

It is possible that someone else is purchasing for him, and that will be looked into.
 
Baby ball pythons for $35, and hedgehogs for $125 is selling...especially if you really do order them for interested parties.
 
I know exactly where this guy gets all his stuff from. It is NOT ERJ. I'm not name dropping. What this guy does is bad for the hobby. He plays middle man and basically brokers the animals he "sells". He has no clue what shape the animals will be in when he takes your money and surely cannot guarantee the sexs.
 
So whats wrong with being an ex porn star?? I'd rather do that then try to make a living selling hedgehogs on craigslist lol
 
You'd rather risk getting a slew of communicable diseases - including HIV - than selling animals on a website that has a section for "selling" animals, where 90% of the people take advantage of the 'rehoming fee' clause anyways?

Hilarious sense of priorities you two have, I must say. Not sticking up for the OP, but I am drawing a line for where hyperbole on the internet has any kind of relevant significance.

And Wendy's motivations are clear here: she is in fact attacking his potential customers to defect. Why the proof is right here: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=158003

Total dick move to post link to BOI information in a 'for sale' thread. If customers are curious, they can do a search. How do I know this is inconsistent with her alleged intentions to steer clear of robbing him of customers? Because she posted in his thread. Where are the posts to links to other sellers BOI threads? Hmmmm? Or is it only relevant when the person selling happens to be one you've had a run-in with previously, Wendy? Seems to me you're taking a page out of the book of Selective Morality - convenient where you pick and choose your battles. To me, this constitutes a conflict of interest, and I move that the admins delete her post from his ad. Time was years ago when making a post like that in someone's ad resulted in a week ban. Happened to me :)

Frank....Lighten up man.I guess they don't sell "sense of humor" at the library?
 
No, go to hell. You're in a thread bashing a person's source of income and all you can do is make jokes. People who take the BOI as a joke are the biggest problem with the BOI. Anything goes because it's the internet and blah blah blah you can hide behind the web's anonymity. Great job. Now I'm going to hold you accountable for saying stupid crap like you did. You shouldn't have said it, and that's that.
 
I have had people link my boi threads in my sales ads. I did confirm with moderators what was allowable BEFORE I made the posts. No content allowed, a link to the thread is permittable.

Is it my intent to warn his customers? Yes. Will his customers become mine? No. I do not sell wild caught, farm raised, or illegal venemous animals, and I do not sell at near wholesale prices. I am a retail store. Not even remotely the same catagory. I have no interest in obtaining Craigslist customers looking for rescues of rehoming pets.

Listen weirdo....I didn't bash anybody.
Do yourself a favor. Turn off the computer, and call a REAL friend and go out for a drink. Seems like you take this "a bit" too seriously, specially since your not the person called out.
 
This isnt about me at all, I have just inserted my opinion like everyone else. So, to keep this on topic and out of my bedroom, here is what I have done.

The proper LEGAL actions have been taken on my end, for the harassment, personal threats, tresspassing, and sales of illegal items in my town. I have done my part LEGALLY and without name calling and cheap shots.

His classified ad about Boas and the dialoge with Critical Bill there, and his emails with John Adams on CL speak volumes of the type of person he is. I will continue to warn people about him when I see it fitting.

Enough said, unless he intends to come back on here and dig himself a bigger grave.
 
Now about Mike Matson jr and this wendy childs bs. I've done alot of business with Mike and not 1 problem with my shipments .Wendy on the other hand has sold reptiles with M.B.S and she spams craigslist with her ads all of the time she sets up phony e-mail accounts and bashes all reptile businesses in Spokane. Up until 2008 she had never dealt with reptiles !! She has also been kicked off of Kingsnake and other sites .Now here is the kicker you can go to google and search for bianca trump / otherwise known as wendy childs look at her rapsheet and ask yourself would you trust her .
SO WENDY DON'T TRY TO RUIN A PERSONS REPUTATION WHEN YOU ARE SO FAR DOWN IN THE GUTTER !!!!!!!!!!!! NOT A GOOD BUSINESS PRACTICE BE SURE TO SEE WENDY/BIANCA ON SPRINGER ON YOUTUBE THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME
 
Rocco, to be fair, you just registered on the site, and in this context looks exactly like Mike just told you to 'put in a good word' for him.

What kind of shipments did you get from Mike? Are you a retailer or retail customer? I'm assuming you dealt locally since you're both in NJ...
 
I lived in spokane for a while and I'm in NJ now. I'm just stating facts also give a call to the spokane valley petsmart ask for someone in reptiles they'll confirm she does buy animals there and she is not giving you the truth that she jacks her prices up .I've had people that work there tell me so. Also ask reptile solutions and northwest seed & pet .hell ask every one in spokane about wendy she is not well liked in the community and look at her criminal history and it will tell you the kind of person she is. As for the shipments I receive from mike..there have been many and they are for my collection not for sale..of all the shipments I have received they have been healthy and are in very good condition.
 
Hey Newbie, I will give you a dollar to by a clue.

I have never been suspended on ZKingsnake. A valid paying member since 2002. http://market.kingsnake.com/userview.php?uid=92104&v=a

I have been a member here since 2006. That dates reflect my remembership ( after getting banned for a stint) for letting trolls like you get under my skin. I think my original sign up was approx 2003ish?

A member of Reptile Auction since it's conception. User "ReptileAddictions".

So How is it I have only been into reptiles since 2008??? Your not very bright are you?

I know all of the managers at both Petcos and Petsmarts. They shop at my store for their feeders, buy some animals from me, and the ones who breed sell me some of their animals. We swap information, refer customers to one another. I HAVE purchased a few cresties from Petco that they have called me about.Petco gets their supply for Allen Repashy ( GREAT BREEDER). If allen slips up and send them a full pinstripe, I certainly will go buy it for $69. And they have had to seperate out a large crestie from new arrival babies and have no where but the back to house it, out of customer sight. I HAVE TAKEN THEM HOME and added them to my collection. All 4 of them. It would not benifit me in any way to buy a $69. gecko and resell it in my store for $40. So whoever your "friend" is doesn't have a freaking clue. He sees me, my truck with a big "reptile Addictions" logo and photos on it, and me making a purchase. I buy my dogfood there too, am I reselling that in my store?

I used to do porn, and I am a convicted felon, no charges related to reptiles at all. You joined yesterday and just figured this out? YOU ARE BEATING A DEAD HORSE, I know everyone here is rolling there eyes at this thread now. Everyone already knows and is probably more sick of hearing about it than me.

I would like to see you provide proof HERE that you are who you claim to be, and that you have purchased anything from Mike Matson Jr. Another Dollar says you cant do that!
