Dean Arnold.

I haven't purchased a thing from him yet.....but he had the smarts, decency, and perspective to initiate this thread.

(And I hope this blatant suck-up of a post moves me yet further up the Vlad clutch list.)

(Wait, I did that already.)

Darren Biggs from Crystal Palace Reptiles, 9 of the snakes, leopard gecko and pygmy chameleon from him. Help above and beyond what I could have expected, from taking Lil back temporarily to get her feeding and offering to swap her for a healthy snake, holding back snakes until I can go to pick them up, and getting my granite from Daytona! (Also rehoming tarantulas for me, but that's a whole long story)
Dave, UKcryptid, for my lovely new babies, and not shooing me out the door when I was drooling over the tortoises :grin01:
 
Excellent purchases and service from:

Dave-(DAND)

Dakota Corns-Brent (Drizzt80)

Triple Moons Exotics-Stef (blckkat)

Serpenco-Rich Z

World Wide Reptilia-Brad McCarthy Butler, Pa

Joe Pierce (ecreipeoj)-on order-1.1 Lava Okeetee

Only online vendor I've bought from was Nick and Lyndsay at Exotic Encounter Reptiles www.eereptiles.com

They answered my questions promptly and everything went smoothly. The snake looked just as it was pictured and is 100% healthy. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again.

2 top rate guys in my eyes......... :cheers:
 
Thanks for the participation. We ARE a community. Some differentiate "real life" from this web-based "virtual life". But I know many of you much better than I do the guy who lives next door to me. This is "real life" too...

Thanks Dale. Those are kind words, but I don't know if I deserve them. As the sage Benny Hill once said: A stopped clock is right twice a day... ;)
 
Oh Lordy, I know I'm going to forget people, but here are some folks I remember having good transactions with (purchases/loans/trades/etc):

Kathy Love (CornUtopia) - goes without saying, she's awesome to deal with
Don Soderberg (SMR) - awesome snakes and a great guy to talk to
Zach Shepherd (Serpent Pets) - first class, all the way
Carol Huddleston (Low Belly Reptiles) - awesome to deal with, great snakes
Terri Manning (The Snake House) - great gal, amazing non-feeder capabilities
Joe Pierce (Snakes Alive) - always seems to go above and beyond for me, great snakes, smooth transactions
Brent Newman (Dakota Corns) - smooth trade, great animals
Chad Fuchs - hugest young corn I ever saw, beautiful, excellent snake
Susan Willis (Willis Wildlife Enterprises) - great to deal with
Jeff Mohr (Mohrsnakes) - awesome
Ken Wares (Kenster) - ok, for a bald guy ;)

I know I've forgotten people and I apologize in advance, but those are a few people who I've made great deals with/purchases from/breeding loans with.
 
Great Thread Dean!
Ive only purchased from one breeder. His name is Rick Trenny. Great guy. renegadereptiles.com

Well, yeah, you do, for the reasons I stated. Have you considered a career shift to international diplomacy? :)

However....and I read this somewhere..." 'Cause sometimes, when you give a little, you get back a whole lot." :crazy02:

Most of my animals have come from Rich Z ( serpenco ), great quality and friendly service.. I would like to get some animals from some of the other breeders in the future, whenever time and cash flow allows. I must also metion Kathy Love, for all the E- mails and phone calls she has answered in the past. She is very nice to talk to.

Thanks alot Rich, and Kathy. Great job !!!!
 
I've had the extreme pleasure of doing business with:

Ruth Hanney ( Hanney's Corns )
Caroline P ( breeding colours, although I have yet to recieve the snake, it's staying with a fellow breeder until our next expo )
Annette Thompson ( Wrappedupinreptiles )

everyone has been great, especially when I ask for pics :rolleyes: ( I like to see pics, plural :) )

The only American's I've had possible dealings with were:
Joe Pierce ( unfortunately I was not able to arrange a way to get the snakes across the border, but I appreciated his help, understanding and willingness to work with me)
Kathy Love ( same situation as Joe )
