    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....

tortorama is a scammer and likes to talk trash. he lies and rips people off doesnt give what he says. watch out and dont do business with him
 
Barry, do you have PROOF to backup your allegations or are you just posting here because you want to rant. If you want to rant, I would suggest NOT using the BOI for this.
 
i have proof. i bought 3 alligator snappers from him 2 females 1 male and got 3 males. i only made the purchase for the females and got none. they were all 10 plus inches and very easy to sex. and he has had alligator snappers for 10 plus years so yes i got scammed. im a breeder and have plenty of males and didnt need any more
 
Funny, in the ad you deleted, Tortorama claimed you ripped him off...if you've got proof, post it. Otherwise, most people will consider this another pissing match like the one you had with Arick Barsch.
 
i got all the emails saying he had 2.2 1.2 2.1 alligator snappers i paid for 2 females and one male and got 3 males. i wouldnd have bought any if i knew they were all males. but yet he had another post selling a large male so he knew the sex of them
 
I believe they are 2.2 as 2 are notably smaller than the others and the tails are thinner in comparison at the base. I could do 950 for all for or 750 for a 2.1 trio. Where are you located? Thanks

Chris
 
this site is a joke. you guys got your buddys and rip on the guys that wanna do business. you can all talk trash about me ive never sold a turtle on here and dont plan to. i sell lots everyday and will keep doing so i have turtles none of you have. have fun with that
 
LoL I am not on ANYONES side... Yet ;) You arent posting proof and WE are trying to teach you to do so. Since you are an expert and all, I guess you will just be happy with the support you currently have. By the way, Im not a turtle guy, so I could care less about what you have. The way you are handling this thread would make me not want to buy from you to begin with. Good luck with your sales;)
 
Barry... We are just trying to help you understand what this Board is all about and E-mails posted are proof of a deal gone bad or simply miscommunication or scamming!! All we wanted you to do was prove that you received the wrong animals and tried to work it out with the seller before coming on here to post!! This Board is an excellent tool to use when trying to purchase or sell animals and posts like this make it look like a joke!! Has the Seller been notified of this thread? Just wondering because it would be interesting to hear his side of this as well although I'm not a turtle person either!!
 
i made my case and showed the proof. wanna talk crap about me fine i have turtles that everyone wants and cant get everyone that has done business with me is very happy. i dont need this bs site grow up retards
 
Well coming here and calling everyone "retards" isn't helping.You keep that up and you wont have to worry about "BS from this site" I'm sure.

And no Barry, what you have are pictures of other peoples turtles, all of which are pretty easy to obtain.
 
i made my case and showed the proof. wanna talk crap about me fine i have turtles that everyone wants and cant get everyone that has done business with me is very happy. i dont need this bs site grow up retards

First of all sorry but you've showed no proof and and consequently with your post the only case you've made is for how much of a buffoon you are. Secondly, I have no want for your turtles since I'm not even into turtles to begin with so again case in point you're just another buffoon wasting space on this forum.

It might help if you highlight all the emails, headers and all then paste them here. 2 posts of you typing isn't "proof" its just that, you typing.

If this is the case that you wish to present to us to judge on, then Barry, you don't have any ground to stand on.

No one is talking crap about you, if someone was, they Harald, Rich or any other mod would confront them on it.

also if you don't need this site then why have you posted for us to help you? obviously you think were "grown up" enough to help you, to read your posts, to take your side with no proof presented and to heed your warning.
