    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....

Inquiry Tim Salime?

I have. I posted my experience. Do not buy from him! I just lost my tortoise this am. He sold me it knowing it was sick saying it was something else.
 
I have sold Tim several high end tortoises without incident. The deals have been a pleasure. I have only good things to say about him.
 
Thats selling him things. Not buying. I have had about 10 people pm me with what they bought where how much and the outcome. Ive even seen the other babies hes selling they are wild caught diseased and have their eyes all crusted shut. Not just random buyers have contacted me but even stores in toronto have contacted me about their dealings with him.

It should be pointed out that the importation of any turtle or tortoise species into Canada is illegal unless for research, scientific, or zoological purposes. I'm not sure whether or not that could incriminate you in any form or way, but if he didn't sell those tortoises in the US then he smuggled them illegally back into Canada.

I would be willing to bet Larry conducted his business within the US. If the buyer then executed an illegal function post-buy, I do not see how that could be on Larry.
 
The importation of tortoises are np for this guy. The man of many names is in fact illegally bringing them in. I as well as a few others have bought what we believe to be wild caught. All sick all died. Btw Tim Salime is not his real name, the latest name is Fei Luo on facebook. Xu Lucien Tim to name a few
