Blueroses, I am very sorry to hear of your loss, and I'm glad to hear that you managed to get the snake away from the with help from RECS and his mrs. I hope it turns out to be female.

Due to the kindness of R.E.C.S., who along with his girlfriend went to the address of 'jonnyboy' and retrieved my snake. He had been totally ignoring all my emails, but handed over the snake when told these members were acting on my behalf. It would appear he felt apprehensive when someone actually turned up at his door ( although in no way agressively ) To deal with someone 150 miles or so away , over the internet, is a different matter to having someone actually arrive at your door. He could ignore me , but not them. Anyway he handed over the snake, there was no attitude Im told, and the whole process took just minutes. He let the lady check the box contents too.
Im told the snake was stone cold, 'balled' up, and looking very hungry. I think it is about to eat R.E.C.S . He describes it as being power fed in the past at some time, but no scars or signs of ill health apart from him seeing a mite.
I would like to publically thank RECS and others ( you know who you are ) for doing this for me. RECS is going to drop the snake off for me round about 21st June. He is also getting it probed. I bought it as a female but he thinks it could be male.
At least I have a snake, instead of nothing at all. I am very grateful.
this forum needs more people like this ..(TOP MAN)

Fair play RECS top guy!!!

....and I feel so sorry for blueroses all this is probably the last thing you need! But at least you will have what you originally wanted instead of the nothing it was looking like the sick was going to return you.

If anyone has any details on him could you send me them if you get a minute! I don't fancy getting drawn in to his lies and deciet, and more to the point I wouldn't like to have stuff booked in by people who think Jim actually exisits only to find out when it's to late that it doesn't!

Sorry to hear of your loss Blueroses.

I hate to be the negative one here, but people seem to be getting a bit carried away here, what exaclty has jonnyboy done wrong in this case appart from use a false name because of the bad press on the forum.

Although I do have to say well done R.E.C.S, not many people would offer to do what you have done

Thank you retri

There is a bit more to it than just a false name, address and contact tel. number, and I am not going to prolong a witch hunt on this man now that RECS has collected my snake for me. Issue almost over, apart from the fact I asked for the fee back that I sent him for the Courier, as we didnt have to pay for one now, and so that at least I could offer RECS expenses, but he tells me he has no money and is on the dole. He must have forgotten sending me this email:

'' will send you a picture but I work 11 or 12 hours a day. I then have snakes to feed/water/clean. I then spend an hour each day with my monitor. I then have to go through about 30 new emails each day and remember what they're about!''

Others who have been involved with him will understand. It's just all the lies.
