• 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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Inquiry Tim Koppenhofer, where is my money?

all the side arguing just makes the parties in the argument seem childish and unprofessional. Just saying...

I agree that if someone takes on a debt they should pay it, not pawn it off and expect someone else to pay it... At the same time, the person who takes on the objects that are in debt for should not take them on when the original debt isn't paid off... It's one big mess and just needs to be taken care of all around...

Yes Bob owes Griz... But Tom owes Bob... so technically it's the same debt... It doesn't matter who pays who since the money should get back to Griz one way or another anyway...

Good luck.
 
Lol.. Mr. Woodard; you are a true gentleman, and I hope these guys take good care of you, after the politeness and respect show by you... Kudos... Idda lid flipped!! Lol
 
By email. That was also the way I contacted him this week. I had no other contact info for him.
 
I have copied the emails from me to Bob which also includes a response from Tim agreeing to the debt and stating that he would be paying asap
I do not see any from you posted?

Tim knows my involvement here as he's received emails from myself directly.

That email was from Bob Martin. If you look, he corrected the email address on the one he sent in December. I did not post the few that I sent as they were sent from my old email address so I would have to dig through my servers to find.

With any luck this will all be over shortly.

While I tend to agree that the thread title might be ill chosen, for all we know, Tim willingly took over the debt to Bob W when he agreed to take the animals from Bob M on consignment. This does not absolve Bob M of ultimate responsibility but it would definitely be a reason for Bob W to seek restitution from Tim.

I have handled debts owed to me several times this way. It's not that uncommon
 
My turn to vent!

Hello there, this is Susan Koppenhofer and I have a few things you all should know about how badly this has all been handled. Those who truly know us also know how hard we work the business and respect the business.
We have talked with Bob and the terms of the IOU have been put into place. So everyone can leave it alone. Why Bob, Griz, decided to persue this direction is not worth the 8 pages you have all given him.
It's true, no responses to emails during the holidays were made. After the sudden loss of our 29 year old daughter last October 7th, the holidays were very painful and the deal was just forgotten over time. Bob was right about one thing, he has no concept of losing a child.
So now after 9+ months Bob suddenly decides a public forum is the way to go on collecting a forgotten debt. All he needed to do was email us and politely discuss things. But no, he goes balistic on BOI for three days and then emails us with a very threatening email on Sunday night. How "business like" is that? By Monday morning we emailed him back with a phone number and all was settled within an hour.
Everyone and anyone who knows us knows how to get in touch with us, either by phone(same cell for over 20+ yrs), email(same email for 15+ yrs) or show(listed in nearly EVERY ad). No thread on BOI was ever needed.
I am sorry for having to post this here - BUT I had to get a few things off my chest that I believed had to be told!
Thank you for your support.

Feeling much better now.
Susan Koppenhofer
 
Very sorry to hear of your loss. Also sorry that you had to be needlessly maligned here. My son and I bought our first Boa from you and have since bought 5 or 6 others and will continue to do business with you. Might see you in Lancaster this weekend.

Susan, We all are very sorry for your loss, However, you state above that no responses to emails were made. Then you turn right around and say that all he had to do was email you. Then you call it a forgotten debt. That would be Tims fault, not Bobs.
 
Tim and Susan, you have Darla and my deepest sympathy for your loss. I can only imagine what it would be like to lose a child.
You have both shown a lot of class and integrity in reponding to this thread the way that you did, and it makes clear why the people that know you both have a great deal of respect for you.
I hope to see you both at Tinley.

I think she meant e-mail recently before starting this thread. It looks like he e-mailed around the holidays, and not recently.
