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:
Hah! My original major WAS Poli-Sci, with an emphasis on international relations. :D Then I switched it to English. That's why I work in IT. :confused:

Big Earn McCracken was a wise man-- not a good man, but a wise man. ;)
 
Don Soderberg was great to work with. He has answered every question I had and we have spend literally hours on the phone.

Michelle Heart (Creatures of the Night) sold us some very nice animals and was also great with lots of communication. We were able to complete a three way transaction with no difficulty.

Liam Sevier (Sevier Serpents) was pretty good too. Very upfront with information when the female we were in line to get quit eating and sent individual pictures of the other available animals they had for us to choose from.

Had absolutely no complaints about any of these transaction
 
I've only gotten my lovely snakes from Joejr14 (Cala's Corns) . He's been kind, always answering my on going questions, and helped me every step of the way. He's someone I hope to stay friends with :)
 
Don Soderberg (SMR)
Jimmy Johnson (Draybar)
Sean Niland (VMS)
Matt Graybeal (MG Reptiles)
Kathy Love (CornUtopia) - Didnt purchase anything from her but she has given me great advice!
Shane (Emanon) - Transaction didnt work out but he always responded to my PM's/email's :)

Thanks everyone!!

And I know there are more that I'm forgetting. Sorry if I forgot you. If I've bought snakes from you or traded with you it was a good transaction. There was only one bad one, and he doesn't visit this forum.

Super thread:

Kathy Love - for taking time out of her busy schedule to educate.
Chuck & Connie - general hand-holding w/o making me feel like an idiot and at least three other reasons. :santa:
Don Soderberg - "Wow-zer" customer service and good advice.
Brent (Drizzt80) - for worrying about me being happy with my snakes.
Terri - for communicating.
Rich Serpenco - easy to work with, even when Murphy wasn't.
Joe Pierce - giving a new project a boost.
Nick & Lyndsay (Exotic Encounters) - great post-sale customer service (not w/corns, but still ...)
Dean (and maybe Roy)/Misty/Dale/Carlos - chats will never taste the same! :grin01:
 
I've only bought my snakes from one breeder, but he's been great. I got three of my four corns from Jeremy Anderson/snakepimp. He even popped my petstore amel for me in exchange for some feeders. I am going to an expo (NW Breeders Expo) this weekend, so I should add someone after that. This is a great thread.
 
GREAT thread!

I have a quickly expanding collection thanks to some great people...

First on my list and the person from whom I have aquired a majority of my collection from: Michelle Heart (Creatures of the Night) - She has high quality animals, great customer service and I am sure to get more and more snakes from her as the years go by.

I have also purchased from:


Cheryl (The Red Dragons Den) - Great service, easy to work with.
Sean Niland - (VMS) - Excellent Super Quality Animals and great Customer Service. I will certianly buy from VMS again and again.
Randy Wright - I purchased a King from his table at Tinley and I will certianly make a point to stop at his table next year and so on.
Sean Bradley - (CornSnakeMorphs.com) I bought from these guys at Tinley and am very pleased with my purchase.
Trevor - Great to work with and I look forward to getting my House Snakes from him soon.

Have not done buisness with yet...

Carol Huddleston (Low Belly Reptiles) - I have inquired about particular animals that I am interested in purchasing and she has had great communication in letting me know the progress and I am sure to purchase from her in the future. :cheers:
 
I've only dealt with a handful of people off the forums and in and around the hobby in general, so my list will be short, but I will call out their names proudly!

I'll start with those who don't frequent the forums.

Mike Clarkson - he helped us get our first corn snake.
Amazon Reptile Center - Polite staff, clean store(s), and great critters. With brand new air-conditioning! *snickers*
Steve Little - he supplies our addiction on a yearly basis! lol
LLL Reptiles - They were friendly if a bit busy - mileage may vary.

Now for those forum members we've dealt with... (though I didn't buy animals from all of them.) Each and every one of them has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. In no particular order they are:

Connie H. & Chuck P.
Trevor Y.
Stephen W.
Carol H.
Misty L.
Joe C. (Joe Jr.)
Zach S.
Tim & Rena
Cheryl (JM)
Kathy L.
Karen P.

and I'm sure I've missed someone, but if I did it wasn't intentional...!

Great Idea!

Nice to have a thread just for saying THANKS! Great idea!

Thank you, Erin (mrweaw, JEMCornSnakes.com) for ShoeString, Skittles and Xanadu. I know next year will be kinder just because you deserve it!

Thank you, Steve (xxx6thirty6 on Fauna) for Adam and Steve, the two sweethearts.

Thank you, Shane (Emanon) for Parkay, Lucerne and Chiclet. All all eating GREAT now.

Thank you Carol (www.lowbellyreptiles.com) and Jenn (TandJ). I can't wait until tomorrow to meet Rocco in person, and November can't come soon enough for Cinnabar to meet her future husband, Lucius.

And thank you Deb, kcorns.com, for all you advice, patience and friendly support that got my nerve up enough to try problem feeders. You were always right on the money, and my babies are in great health, much to your credit.
