Suncoast Herpetology/John Schmitt inquiry?

John is the bomb in this business.

:eatsmiley

Last year I needed a few animals to fill a couple orders and to fill my table for a big show that was up comeing.

Well,I saw a ad by John and gave him a shot.I have never been very impressed by anybodys packing skills(other than my own) untill I recieved the box.It was top notch aand so were the animals,They had great size on them and almost looked like yearling.
I had a great show thanks to him and we have done a couple deals since then.

I don't post much but John is one of the best in this business and thats a fact.

I just recently purchased a pair of striped creamsicle corns, John went out of his way to photograph available specimens so we may choose which we recieved, discounted our purchase, packaged them with pure precision, and shipped them as stated. They arrived wonderfuly cared for and in perfect health. They will be a valued addition to our collection here at Top Shelf Exotics.

We thank you John, you're one of the best in our books. You'll definately be seeing more of our business, keep up the excellent work!

Damn!!!

even I didn't know I was THAT good. I better raise my prices... Just kidding.

Seriously though, thanks for all the kind words guys. As sappy as it sounds, it really means a lot.
 
John is awesome to do buisness with, I have purchased several thousands of dollars in baby corns and kings from John this year alone(or last year now) for my overseas customers, not a single problem with a single animal. In fact I just sent over 100 of Johns animals to a customer in Japan, and trust me the Japanese are as picky as they come and they were very impressed, these guys don't impress easily.
JOHN THUMBS UP BUD
 
I just bought a pair of Blizzard Pines from John, and I couldn't be more impressed with the animals or the customer service! John was great to work with, emails were usually returned within the hour, sometimes within minutes. Shipping was flawless, and the packaging first rate! And the pines! WOW! Simply amazing! John is definitely one of the good guys!
 
Might as well pile on........in a good way. :)

I've bought from John, on three separate occasions,both in person, and by mail,and have been completely satisfied. Great guy and great dealer.
 
I have purchased wholesale quantities from John and have been 100% satisfied with the great looking and great eating colubrid snakes he has sent me.
 
John and Sincoast

I met John the first time I had a table at Daytona. I learned more form him in those two days than I thought was possible. I learned about customer service and animal care. I would not hesitate to buy any animal he had. I purchased some animals from him. They were perfect in every way and also like eveyone else has said the shipping is perfect . If more people were like him the BOi would be pointless. Todd SHaffer :)
 
I could not agree more. There is never I time when John is not ready to lend a hand and give sound advice. What I have learned from him in 3 conversations would take a year in research. Never hesitate to do business with him. Jose Arcay.
 
John is one of the Best!!!!!

Ditto to all of the above!!!! John is truthful no matter what. He knows his stuff! And he provides excellent service. Lastly, he has a quirky sense of humor!!!!

I have dealt with John, he is a good guy for sure!! :) :yesnod:

I also had the pleasure of meeting him at the Daytona show this year. He is a real nice guy in person as well. :thumbsup:
 
John's been next to us at the Tampa Show for 10 years now.
In all that time I've never heard a complaint about how he does biz.
I picked up a few things over the years and have always been happy.
John and I worked hand in hand to help with some of the crap that had gone down with the Tampa shows in the past.
It was an honor to battle with him at my side.
You can always trust what he says. He will always do the right thing even if it's not popular.
I'd trust him to watch my back any day.
If you are thinking of dealing with Suncoast you can't go wrong.

I had the chance to meet John at a show in Tampa today. All his animals looked outstanding. I picked one up. John was friendly and great to deal with and answered all my questions. I would definitely deal with him again in the future. Thanks John.
 
Although I have never purchased from John we have met in pesron in Tinley. Based on that conversation and the way he portrays in this site I wouldn't doubt dealing with him anytime.

Thanks

Thanks for the kind words Jim. Always great to hear. It was a pretty busy day there and I talked myself horse. Tell me what you picked up so I can put a face to the name.
 
Hey John,
I picked up a real nice striped corn that you sexed for me. Beautiful snake by the way.
 
John has been in the business for many years and has excellent corns available as well as other species. I have known John from reptile shows in the Tampa/ Orlando area for more than 12 years and his animals are always top notch. I would not hesitate to purchase any of John's animals.... he's a really great guy!

I just picked up a couple of female corns from John at the Tampa show last weekend - lavender het blood, and blood het lavender, to go with the similar pair I picked up from him in Daytona. As usual, I got the same kind of great animals at the same great prices I have always received over the past 4 or 5 years of dealing with John. And he always seems so cheery and energetic - even at the end of the day on Sunday, lol!

Keep up the good work!
