I'm just curious ;)
BOI = Board of Inquiry
I think the most popular one is on Fauna Classifieds. It is a section on their forum where you can do a search for the business or person that you are considering doing business with and it will pull up all of the threads, both good and bad, that people have posted there.
There is also one on BP.net, here:

Sorry, have to disagree 100%. This is my experience with Boaphile. He will NOT call back, he does NOT answer the phone. I'll never play those games again.
On the other hand, Rich at Reptile Basics is excellent and I found his product was equally high quality. Absolutely no complaints. :gj:

Yeah. No one kept snakes in cages until the Boaphile came along. Cough cough cough Neodesha cough cough cough Sandemar cough cough cough cough cough.
I've got some old Sandemar racks that are God knows how old that have outlasted anything the Boaphile has built.
Since he won't answer the phone for many of us, but will apparently do so for you, please ask him to explain this next time you speak to him:

RonB- IBD, your thoughts?
TheBoaphile - I don't believe in it. Long story.
TheBoaphile - Too long to explain here. I need to write something up on it...
TheBoaphile - The IBD wackos are moving away from their once long held, bordering on religeous, belief about it now...
Please ask him if IBD is still something he does not believe in. Ask him since he is the BOAphile and is the self proclaimed king of all things boa, if he has donated to Dr. Jacobson's research. Tell him that there are many people in this hobby, who have always wondered about that quote from that interview.
I admit I bought a lot of his product and for the most part, I got my money's worth out of it - regardless of the lack of customer service. However, I will pour habanero pepper extract on my thumb and jam said thumb up my rectum before I spend one more dollar on someone who thinks that people who think that IBD exists are wackos.
