    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....

Cory Berensmann lies and is a bad buyer.

On October 8, 2008 - I sent Cory Berensmann a female possible super DH Sunglow Female. This boa was not paid for due to the fact it was sent with another boa, and I trusted Cory since he had bought from me in the past.

Cory Berensmann stated on Fauna Classifieds on February 2, 2009 "Yes, I still owe Robert for a dh sunglow And I will pay him no matter what the out come is on the snow boa just because i am a man of my word"

Now on April 6, 2009, after several attempts to get the money back, here is Cory's response in his email.

"I've had time to think about this and I am not sending you the requested $600 or the snake back."

For a man of his word, it makes you wonder what else he is not telling the truth about.

I have been selling boas for years. Just like we have bad breeders we also have a lot of bad buyers. Buyers that do not pay debts. Buyers that want something for nothing. Buyers that lie to benefit themselves. Cory is a prime example of one of these buyers.

My advice is not to sell Cory Berensmann or Far North Boas of Alaska anything. He lies and does not pay his debts.

Gotta say that after re-reading the original thread, the buyer doesn't have a leg to stand on. The only person in this transaction that needs to be avoided is Cory.

Cory....pay what you owe and move on. You are in the wrong here...plain and simple
 
I agree with Robert. I saw this post and I about fell over. I have to tell you that Cory Berensmann aka Far North Boas is a scam artist, crook, & a career criminal. Go here and type in his last name (Berensmann) then click “search”:
http://www.courtrecords.alaska.gov/pa/pa.urd/pamw6500.display He has been in jail a million times!!!!

About 4 - 5 years ago I had a similar experience with him. He bought some snakes from me and months later wanted his money back because they did not eat and some had died. He threatened me weekly with going to the police and getting
a lawyer.

Cory Berensmann from Alaska is a criminal. He has no job and scams people for a living. Watch out for this guy. I wonder why he is no longer buying or selling snakes?
