Animal Care Specialist
Carol Hoover-of "Carol's Critters" local petstore...breeds her own reptiles and she's an all around cool lady. i've gotten a few animals from her including my BRB, a corn, and a cali king. all have been in great health and she's always so sweet and has a good staff.
Rich Z--i have one corn from him "Aidan"
Kathy Love---i havent bought any snakes from her but her and her husband's book on the care of cornsnakes is an invaluable resource
Jay Fischer-got my motley stripe from him. he and his wife were super sweet
Gino Sassini---have an MBK coming from him. he's helpful and his website is awesome. great customer service.
Big Cheese Rodents---awesome customer service

Eremita
and cats...
Well, she's already been mentioned and I've never heard anything but praise for her, but for the folks who have gotten information but not snakes from her:
Kathy Love is great. She answered all my questions - one or two of which were newbie questions I really should have known - before I was even sure I was going to get a corn snake. This was during her craziest time dealing with hordes of hatchlings, and she was still complete and informative in her replies. Her Okeetees are stunning, and every part of the sale went smoothly and quickly. My hatchling looks great and eats like a champ, and I am a very happy customer.
Thanks Kathy!

I also did a breeding loan with Stephanie (blkkat) which was flawless!

Tom & Linda
I agree that Tom Thompson is a good guy. Him and his wife Linda know how to take care of their customers. The way I found this forum was because I was looking for a local breeder. I got lucky and found a good breeder and this site! He didn't know me from Adam but was willing to send me some pictures and hold a snake (0.1 amel motley) for me. I brought my brother-in-law to the show with me to get my snake and he purchased an 0.1 anery motley.
They're are great looking snakes and are clutchmates. My snake has been great in every way but the anery is a picky feeder and didn't want to eat at all. We called Linda for advice and she took the snake back and got it feeding again and was willing to offer a replacement if things didn't work out. This also resulted in me seeing their collection!
Tom recently emailed me, keeping me in mind for some of his remaining hatchlings, and was sure to ask how the anery was doing. I will deal with them again without the sightest of reservations. This is a good thread to be able to publicly thank them.

PCar's Reptiles
Lets see, I have only bought from a few people on here, but here goes:
I have had wonderful transactions with the following people;
Carol
Don Solderburgh
Rich Z
Shep151 (Zach)
Dritz80 (Brent)
I am sure there will be others as there are lots of new morphs and hets that I want to pick up. Just need some of the Green Paper stuff before I can get anymore. Thanks to everyone that I have worked with for very smooth and timely transactions.

This is comical, but interesting :grin01:
The only forum member I have purchased from was Tim and Nate at Ultimate Corns. They are responsible for Blair and CC, so you know how pleased I am!
I have never purchased an animal that had to be shipped to me, and probably never will. Just my thing.
Assuming this thread was intended to take some heat off Joe Pierce, I will say that I was unphased by the whole deal. Still like Kat, still like Joe.
Oh, and by the way, Joejr; the breeding loan is off!!!!!!!!!! :roflmao:

Nah, it wasn't really intended for that purpose. I'd be less than truthful if I said it wasn't inspired by that thread, but I was merely hoping that we could focus on some positive stuff. Things just seem a little hostile around here lately, and I figured that we could use a reminder of how important this community's members are to each other.mbdorfer said:
But in the spirit of full disclosure, I'll add that I DO have a transaction pending with Joe P.. I'm hoping he picks me out a nice pair of Lava Okeetees. I missed out on his '05s, so I placed a deposit on them late last year.
Sparda
Addicted to Corns
I will add my 2 cents.
Some great people I have dealt with are:
Don Soderberg
Brad McCarthy
Tom Thompson
Joanna Duby
Jim From Home Grown Herps
Joe Pierce
LeeAnne from Mastershaven
Mike Heinrich (a good friend)
Jeff Yohe
Kevin DeBusk
Terry M from Terrysextreme
I hope I remembered everyone. It has been a while since I sold most of my collection so off the top of my head, these are the ones I remember.
I haven't yet had the pleasure to do business with these few. But I hope to in the future:
Carol-Lowbelly reptiles
Zach Shepard
Dean (I mean jeez he has one of the nicest collections, I have to get something from him in the future)
Rich Z
And probaby a few more of the members on here. You all have such great looking animals, and when I get the space to build back up, I hope to be able to do business with some of you.

I put the 'pygmy' in ban.
Well let's see, I've bought snakes from all of three people..
I'd like to thank Don S. for my first four, and for answering all my crazy newbie questions.
And I have to thank Zach S. for the wonderful snakes I bought from him, and for always having enough mice for me! And for trusting me with the eggs and the mouse money this go-round.
And who could not be pleased with an order from Carol H.? You've filled my collection with some wonderful snakes with some amazing hets, and for that I thank you. And for letting me badger you with a million questions, for getting back to me so quickly, and for letting me add that little lavender to my order at the last minute. And, for the very special anery and normal girl.
I will also be buying two darlings from Erin W. when I return Tuesday, and I'd like to thank her for being so kind, and for taking time out of her busy schedule to answer all my questions.

I haven't bought from Don yet, but I heartily second Carol and Erin. I just received my first snake from Carol this very morning, a Baird's baby whose two brothers are still available. He wasn't just as nice as his photos: he was BETTER! Beautiful snake!hana said:And who could not be pleased with an order from Carol H.?

Erin is the nicest person to work with. She goes beyond the expected to make sure the buyer is happy and her snakes are in good hands. I have three of this year's hatchlings, and couldn't have been happier with the communication, the quality of her snakes or the way she treats people.
There are so many good people involved in these forums that it's easy for even a hobbyist new to corns to find high quality, fair priced animals that will get him or her off to a good start. This thread should be required reading for all new members.

Great thread!
People I've bought from and highly recommend:
Sparda aka Paula Howard
Hopyard Herps aka Bob Deptula
I was also incredibly fortunate to win (yes win) some absolutely gorgeous healthy snakes from:
Connie and Chuck - CCCorns
Misty Lundberg - Sleepy Hollow Herps
Alan Hughes - My funny Serpentine
Needless to say I would highly recommend them!
I will post a quick apology to Connie, Chuck, Misty, Alan and Paula that I have not posted photos to show you how beautiful your animals are! (I need to bribe my husband to help me. I guess I might actually have to be nice to him for a few days. )
