• 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....

My recent purchase from Tony was rewarding. The two normal ball python females were well packed, in excellent health, and nicely invoiced (if you SELL smakes--always provide an invoice or shipping list like Tony does; just good business practice).

He and I discussed the snakes beforehand, and he went out of his way to call me when my Earthlink IP blocked his e-mail reply. He didn't have to call but he did.

Tony is a class act who sells top quality reptiles. There are other BOI posts that bear this out. I checked BEFORE I bought. That made buying an easy matter.

I have to agree!!! I have personally never bought anything from Tony, but I have seen him at all the shows in Arlington. He and I have visited on many occassions and he has always been more than helpful and extremely friendly. He is not one of those guys who is only nice to you if you are buying from him. He is a genuinely nice guy to everyone. Tony is a class act all the way.
