    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....

Upstate Exotics

Rosy boa: died weeks after she purchased it and was pissed b/c we didn't refund her....you ALL agreed that over that time span it was not our responsibility....

If I'm not mistaken what was meant was that you can't be held responsible during that time span, which is quite different than saying it was not your responsibility. For example: someone buys a snake from you, the snake does poorly for whatever reason. You guarantee the health for seven days. The snake dies on the 8th day. You can't be held accountable for the death but yet you are responsible because the snake was doing poorly from the start. Get the difference?

Regards.
 
Mmmmmmmmm

If I remember correctly, this lady was trying for 3 weeks to feed a snake that wouldn't eat. Trying to keep a snake alive that obviously had a problem long before she received it I also recall that she said she didn't ask for a refund because the time limit had expired and that her writing to this forum was merely to tell people what happened to the snake that she was sent, in hopes of preventing others from going through the same thing. Too bad Upstate could not get the message straight... as seems to be the norm.

MissHisssss.
 
Upstate will not hesitate to give everyone a twisted version of events and contradict themselves over and over in the face of over whelming evidence that does not support what they (upstate) claim happened.
 
DOG GONE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

I noticed that I put down MissHisssss instead of my full name on my last post. Sorry. I'm new at this so will try to figure out how to do my signature for the next time that I post. Maybe even this time if I can manage it.

Once again... I'm sorry I forgot.... I am

Come on Darin, don't you get it? One of the genius' who does business with upchuck(great moniker whoever thought of it) is attempting humor. A miserable failure but an attempt none the less. At least I think that's what it was.

Nothing personal
Thanks!

Jason,

In all fairness your full name was not posted in one post and whomever it was was probably trying to bring it to your attention so your post would not be deleted from the thread. It does not matter if your last name is within your buisness name no one knows that unless you post your last name.

wes, I was wondering if you intended this to be a slam on anyone who does business with upstate?

"One of the genius' who does business with upchuck(great moniker whoever thought of it) is attempting humor."
 
Corey,
It's sort of hard to say. If they fix their past problems then I reckon I won't. It's sort of up to them. And if I missed a point or misunderstood, it's happened before, then that's one on me. So, for now, only time will tell.

Wes Pollock
 
Im misunderstanding your response. I simply wanted to know if you are sarcasticly calling me and others "genius'. Not to seem petty but that just seems like a pointless remark, I know I have been very pleasent to all with my posts.
 
UPSTATE EXOTICS

OK....then i am sorry for the mix up on my part.
I was just trying to let everone know that i have had some good deals with Upstate exotics and trying to help them out by posting some good words for them.
This is why you usualy do not see my name on the BOI's , the people trying to speek in your favor get picked to death because someone else had a bad deal with them...OR you get 15 diffrent people picking on the post you made.
I am new to the BOI and NO i have not got the hang of it, so what i did not put my last name....Ask for it..lol..how hard is that?? Insted i get 8 emails from the BOI telling me i need a last name OR my post will be deleted.....ask before jumping the gun. I am easy to get along with and quick to help anyway i can.
Once again in MY book UPSTATE EXOTICS are good people and do good bisness...thats all i was trying to voice here people.
Thanks for the concern! Jason Stone

As you say..."in all fairness" Just because i have 136 post doesnt mean it was on the BOI unless someone else is posting it...i dont not come to these boards except to see whats going on or to find out the " dirt" on someone i hardly ever post on here except lately.
Yeah i post reptiles for sale often, that does not mean i come to the BOI right away.

Corey,

Sorry you misunderstood, but I can understand how you did. It was an attempt at humor on my part. I guess it didn't work as well as I had hoped it would. It was not a slight on anyone in particular.

Wes Pollock
 
Thanks for the clarification wes. I know how the mud can fly on here and I wanted to make sure I was being stereotyped or put in some sort "bad guy" group becouse I buy from Upstate. thanks again and good luck to everyone.:D :) :D :) :D
