Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

SOUND OFF!!! Ever have something REALLY bugging you and nowhere to vent about it? Well, this is the place. It does not have to be fauna oriented at all! Get it off your chest right here. |

Backing Out Last Minute
I just don't understand how some people will go so far as to set up a delivery or place and time to meet for a sale/trade then call as I am packing up their animals and say that they can't come up with the money. I do a lot of local deals with my geckos and recently gave a customer a very good price and even offered to deliver it as it was only 30 minutes away. She texts me as I'm walking out the door (10 minutes after we had set up a meeting place) and says "um something happened, I can't get the $25, but do you want a turtle?"...after I had the animal packed up and cleared my day.....ugh. I understand that things happen, but please don't waste my time when you know that you can't afford something in the first place. If you work with me, I'm happy to make accommodations for your situation...

Get used to it. It happens. Even customers (including us) that go to a store to shop, will put things back on the shelves when we find out we are overspending.
I would have been THANKING the customer for having the integrity to call me and cancel rather than let me make the trip and not show.

That's true, I guess I get frustrated because I have never not followed through on something like that, especially if they are taking time out of their day to meet me. Better than the no-shows though definitely

i agree with Deb, shtuff does happen and or ppl see they had to spend on something else and now cant come up with the full amount...but if youre willing to work something out with them thats great...at least you didnt show up to their home to find out they didnt want it or even not open the door for you. That said...do you have any female geckos available?

Yeah I realized I should have used PM right after I posted, but I don't see a way to delete. Is there one?

Nonrefundable deposits are a great idea.
