• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

I was wondering if anyone has ever done business with Rick at Tampa Bay Exotics in Tampa, Florida. In a discussion on another forum, I was told he was selling some adult CB ball python females for 105 shipped because he is moving to England because of job situations. If he is legit that sounds like an awesome deal, but it is just one of those things that sounds too good to be true. I just thought I would run the names by you all and see if this guy is for real.

Thanks,
Daniel P. Hill
 
I responded to a couple of their KS ads late last year, both through the "contact me" and by email via their website...never got a response. doesn't mean anything good or bad, just my experience.
 
Tampa Bay exotics did post an ad for some snakes recently. I was VERY interested in one of them. I private messaged twice, no response. So I emailed, no response. I thought it was a scam but the snake is on the tampa bay exotics facebook and web page. I emailed the store directly and I'm currently hoping for a response. I always give feedback on the BOI for people I deal with. So far I am not happy because I really wanted that snake. If they respond and change my mind about them I will post a positive review. I hope they respond.

Search the BOI... these are not people you want to deal with, lol.
 
I did search the BOI. I cannot find anything recent saying anything bad. I saw stuff about a certain guy who worked for them years ago then moved away and is no longer affiliated with them. That is all I can find. Correct me if I am wrong.
