    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....

Thats 140 posts and the thread was looked at seven thousand one hundred twenty four times and still going strong!
Hmmmmmm?
 
Mike-

Who's being the "hen" now? I checked out your website and you don't have to worry about me buying any animals from you in the near future. Why purchase from you when there are a ton of "breeders'' out there that sell quality animals and have great business practices? It's a good thing though that this is just a "business hobby" for you and not a business. Why don't you try thinking before coming into a dead thread and posting your 2 cents. Get REAL!!!!! I guess it's my loss?

Brett,Sorry I did not have anything you liked.I have not updated my site for a long time.I have been selling so fast latly that its been hard to take pics.Thanks for reminding me, I should update what I have for sale.

WOW,has this thread gone WAY out of the original subject.I read the whole thread and had a few questions to ask Drew so I can understand both sides.I am asking a ligit question and am getting nothing but greif from you people.I was asking Drew,not any one else.If you all notice,he has yet to answer any questions I have asked.Man,I am glad my vacation is about done,I waisting my last day with SOME unemployed people (ouch).
 
Unemployed people?I probably make more cash than you in a week than what you do for a whole month! Vacation? What the hell are you doing at home acting like a "hen" on your vacation?

If you updated your website with $50 Sunglows I still wouldn't buy from you!!!!

If you want to talk to someone without everyone chiming in then I would suggest using the PM or e-mail function.

I don't have a "buisness" , I am JUST a consumer with cash to burn. Take the time to read the thread. And if you are ever thinking of turning your "hobby business" into a real business, I would have to say good luck. You are going to definitely need it. Your attitude sucks!

I love this forum.I just made a sale from someone seeing my web site in this thread.Thanks guys:D !!!!
Click to expand...

And yet you remain dim enough not to understand that just here, in this thread, there have been half a dozen of us that have said we would not do business with you.

You go right on ahead and be proud of that single sale, and maybe of the one or two others you get from this thread. But deep down, if you even have a deep down, ponder this pinkie:

Many many people read here and NEVER post anything. They tell their friends. They talk to people at shows and on other sites. Word is out about what a jerk you are.

It has already and will continue to cost you.

your pal ori had to change his business name to keep ripping people off. He hasn't posted here in over a year. Since he was kicked off for being a bit of a jerk himself. So I reckon you'll be changing your name and having your ignorant loudmouth friends coming here next year touting what a great guy you are to do business with. And yet, if you follow ori's path, NO ONE will have heard of you.

It's a shame, well not really, that you don't even see it.
 
Wow!!! You made a whopping $75 for some Poss. Hets. Congrats on supplementing your income. Simply amazing!!

Did you guarantee your animals?

I forgot my name again,
OOH Brett,I own a drywall/painting buisness.I dont even want to get caught up in your "I have more money than you do"thing.No one REALLY cares.If you got a problem with me then e -mail me or call me.Sorry my stuff costs more than what your mommy gives you for allowance.

A drywall/painting business? Highly doubt that considering you can't spell the word business. And if you did own it...Vacation? Or lack of business due to your "buisness" practices. Allowance from Mom? Come on dude you really should quit while your ahead. How old are you?

Why would I call you? or e-mail you? I really don't have a problem with you. But by the way this thread is going you more than likely have a problem with me!

Later Kook-

You know something wess,I do not know Ori AT ALL,nor am I defending him.I was just aking Drew a question and everyone gets pissy.I DO NOT KNOW STEVE OR CONDON WHAT HE DOES!! I WAS JUST ASKING A QUESTION TO DREW.Know I got this Brett kid TRYING to intaginize me,thinks for some reason he knows my income??????? If you look from the beginning when I came in,Where am I being a jerk????Atleast not till others were.I WAS JUST ASKING A QUESTION! I personally think Steve should give back the refund,BUT I wanted to know why Drew excepted M3.Then he starts being a jerk by asking me what do I not understand about a refund.I was not questioning the refund.I am not an a$$,I just will not sit back and take it.And this is why this forum gets ridiculed from time to time in the reptile community.This is not a be all end all website.I know alot of people come here but the reptile world is sooooo much bigger than you think.This site should be about bad people selling bad animals,not a free for all bitching of who makes more money than the other.

And you wampole, should be smart enough to understand that when someone puts on his website that his guarentee is customer SATISFACTION or your money BACK that he has just said " if you don't like it FOR ANY REASON I'll give you your money back."

What is and has been so difficult for you to understand about his? It seems pretty clear cut to me. It seems pretty clear cut to quite a few others as well.

Not you. Not ori, who wrote it in the first place. I can't think of anyone else off the top of my head that can't see this.
 
Check the profile buddy....I certainly am not a kid. This was a dead post until you Mike brought it up questioning Drew. If you are trying to cuddle up to Wes, I doubt he will care. You made a fool out of yourself my insulting the folks posting on here by calling them Hens and having nothing better to do. No backtracking here for you unfortunately. Your comments are here to stay. You screwed up! You might try apologizing. That might help a little. I am a pretty fair, honest man and I actually would give someone like you another chance but from reading your posts. You could care less what us people think. It wouldn't affect your "buisness" "hobby". So I'm not sure what to say. You dug yourself a deep hole. If you need some help getting out, I will actually forget the insults. If not then no big whoop. Like I said I am just a consumer not a "breeder".

Okay folks, this one has more than run it's course and slipped pretty far off-topic in the past couple days. As such, I'm locking it.

If anyone has any new information that's relevant to the topic of this thread, we'll reconsider it's status.
