    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Anyone ever sell to Loc (Nick) Nguyen out of Fontana, CA??

We got a call last Thursday (November 10th) from this person (out of Fontana, CA) and he asked if we had any Bell Line Blazing Blizzard Leopard Geckos. My shop manager told him yes and he agreed to purchase the pair and if we shipped COD. She told him that yes we would ship COD, however we ONLY would accept a Postal Money order as payment. He agreed to this and told her he was going out to get one as soon as he got off the phone.

Well we shipped them and they arrived and UPS refused to give them the package as he had only left a personal check with his son. The son called me and told me that UPS said that they were going to ship them back to me, but they wouldn't get to me until MONDAY!! He said that he had tried to call his father, but his father was busy at work and had hung up on him.

Well, to make a very long story short, I contacted UPS in California and told them the story and they shipped the package back to me on a Saturday delivery for a charge of over $130.00!!!!!! This man has NEVER called me back to find out what happened and why they weren't left.

Be warned if you get any calls from this man and DO NOT ship ANYTHING TO HIM COD. He called himself "Nick" to my shop manager.

You have Bell blazing blizzards? I was under the impression that only HISS and E2MacPets have ever produced the morph and weren't selling any. I haven't been keeping up with the latest leopard gecko trends though, so correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes we have a 1.1 pair that we have had for about a year now.

I was mistaken about the length of time that we have had this pair. We have had them since the Daytona show, so that would be approximately 4 months now. I was actually thinking about something else when I posted this.

I thank the friend that pointed this out to me. :)

I will apologize for being off topic also. I'm still trying to find out if anyone has had dealings with this person in California and what the outcome was.
