    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....

And trust me, Ive learned from it and itll never happen again. People just jumped the gun and accused me of things that I had no control over. This is for everyone..... I apologize, i am sorry, and it will never happen again.

You got caught, all I hear is -back peddle, back peddle, back peddle- so I can use this trick on someone else.

Here's a way to prove it. Has the snake shipped? Take a photo of you, the snake and some paper with today's date on it.
 
I dont think I will lose buisness because of what you think. You are noone to me honestly, and for every one persone who doesnt buy/trade with me, there will be two or three that will. So I hope you realize that. Move on and keep my name out of your mouth. I dont need negativity from you or anyone else.

You had no control over giving someone your account info? Are you that thick?
Utta..... you need to mind your own buisness little man.

And you need to post your proof of her having stolen pics.
 
I have good animals for sale and trade. all healthy, all mine and they are amazing. I will continue to do buisness with people who want great quality snakes. Thank you all for your great little talk, I have commented and fixed the problem. Theres nothing Else I can do. So i wish you all luck and have a ggrrrreat day !! lol

You brought negativity on yourself by being ignorent. And only ignorent people think that this wouldn't effect business
 
Jeff yohe and myself tried doing a trade with him this week too. Very fishy. Would of loved to do a trade but things don't add up. He has a big proven bee male het ghost for sale or trade but in his trades he wants bees. I was lined up to ship out a few times. Then he would change his mind. Jeff asked for him to ship first being a new member with no info. Needless to say both trades went south.
 
Here is the e-mail chain I had with Mike as well, I am with the rest of you, something not right with him. He may be legit, but I also called off our trade due to no references and him not wanting to check mine.

I also noticed a small discrepency in his add versus his e-mail. His add mentions the Bumblebee Het Ghost was a F/T eater, which you can see in my e-mails makes a difference to me. He then writes back that the Bumblebee is a live eater. Does not make one a scammer or thief, but that added with the lack of references and not wanting to check mine was enough for me to back away.

Here is when we came to a verbal agreement on the deal, some of you may want to check and see when your deals were made, see if we overlap anywhere. -- Monday, October 18, 2010 11:23 AM --


E-mails start here.


i dont care to check on the gun forums. If you cant do the trade, thats fine. I will look to trade else where. I can totally respect your choice. thanks anyway.

Mike,

Thank you for the info, I do not think I can get them out tomorrow. I can get them out for next Wednesday.

Do you have any references I can check? I have a couple of reptile references, but I have quite a few references from the gun/custom knife arena. I have traded and sold on AR15 and Glocktalk for years. They are the 2 largest gun forums on the net.

If you have no references, I would prefer you send first and I will get you my references for verification. I have a plus 7 on AR15 you can check now under user id MikeDE

I would add $200 with the Het Pied & Cinny.

My reasoning is:

Het pied hatchlings go for $250-$300, mine is 500gr. I know she has no paperwork, so I will not argue too much on her value.

The Cinny is nice looking and already breeder ready and a solid eater, so I think more around $250 trade value is fair.

If you agree, can I get a few more pics of the Bumblebee? Also, what line of Ghost? Any wobble or corkscrew issues?

Im just thinking about trade value on these guys. The het pied aroudn 200-225, and the cinn about 150-175. Im asking more than tat in trade value for my bumblebee. Could you add anything or cash ontop of it. ? or id just sell him out right to you for $ 650 cash. thats an awsome deal on him.

Mike,

I do not, we only have the Balls, I do have a Calico Hog boa & Cay Caulker Boa, both males, but they are pets as I really like the Insular Island boas. The fact they stay smaller and are now protected, makes them cool to have. The Calico Hog is a mean motorscooter, he has started to calm down for me, but is always an adventure when it is time to handle him.

Sorry about that, here is the Russo.

The only other ball morph I have for trade is a Female Het Red Axnathic – 450gr, picky friggin eater, sometimes F/T, but it has to be left overnight. I am going to go back to live for her and try fresh killed and then F/T all over again. She will grow better for someone that feeds live. I prefer F/T for mine as I can get a better supply/price on them. I have to pay the Pet stores for live and $3-$5 a pop is redonkulous.

I have lots of Ball Morphs, but they are in my plans at the moment, these that I have for trade do not fit in to my ever changing plans and ideas.

My Hidden Gene Woma Granite Yellowbelly male drives all my current breeding plans with my Sentinel male & Vanilla Ghost male second. I have around 6 female het ghost & ph Het ghosts & a Mojave Het Ghost, so your BumbleBee Het OG would fit nicely into my future plans.

Wow with my trade for that bumblebee I was supposed to ship out Wednesday too. I was trading a lav retic 6ft female,300 gram cinny male,2010 pastel female and 2010 yb male
 
bkline, i did offer him to you as well as a few other people. i wanted to try and get the best deal i could out of him. Your deal sucked, so i backed out, thats why. I could care less if you get any snakes from me or not. Hes already traded. Get a life.
 
Listen I'm not one to go back or stretch this out, to give Mike some respect and a fair shot at all the allegations, Mike I would just suggest you post up pics of your animals with a name tag.

Actually I think mods should require that all ads go up with your name tag Heck maybe even with time and date stamps. I know this is how we did it in the sneaker culture, you put a lot of these at ease this way.So "webslave" get on it brother NEW STICKY TIME!!!
 
BROOKLYNJOE, you seem like the one and only person on this entire reptile geek website that has said something to me that wasnt wack. I have homeboys in BK and theyve always been str8 up.
 
you cannot deal three people the same snake ,at the same time....and ship it twice?

settle this crap...send me the blast and the butter.....you'll see........
 
has anyone seen any updated photos with his name or date for proof...or are we just wasting time here
 
bkline, your wasting MY time. I dont have to prove myself to you, or anyone else. If you dont want to deal with me.... then dont. Im not gonna cry about it or lose a minute of sleep over it, trust me. Ill still sell and trade with other people who arent so petty. Like i said before, get off the computer and get a real life.
 
Na see dat ...you jus talk smack lil kid, G -dis crap and dat, and nuttin gettin dun....

Yes....you are a fake ass kid......good luck...you will need it......LOL....$$$$$$$???LOL.... I got more than you will ever have from snakes ....you are formally Black Balled in this buissness....trust me......you have NO standing at all in the Reptile Industry.....
