Lucille You forgot to post this here also

This would be just a partial list of people whom have purchased from me over the course of the last three years. I think your post was uncalled for being the persons that had posted information to this post had done so AFTER having done business with me. Many have done Business with me from that threads you posted. And im sure many have researched and read and still purchased from me. My record is clean my customers are Happy, I make good one what I sell and deliver on what is paid. I go above and beyond the call of business for customers in getting them their products to them as fast as I can with a one-man shop. After having sold over 450 cages & racks last year I am happy to say I have Many Happy Customers to vouch for the person I am working with the Natural History Museum here in NC supplying them some cages as well So my record speaks for itself. The fact you posted in a thread in which you have had no dealings with that person speaks for itself. I am not posting here to Flame or start any kind of bad tensions I just merely wanted to let you Lucille know that there is more the one side to every story know it before you go off trying to save people from thereselves.

Comments: I purchased a T4218 from Alan last year. It is black and has double doors. This is one of the nicest cages around and you will not beat the price. I kept a big male albino retic in it for a while and he pushed like crazy everywhere he could. The cage stood up nicely and I can't say enough good things about him and his cages. A+++ Thanks, Jeff @ JCSnakes

Comments: Alan has been excellent to work with. I was in a jam last fall and needed 4 cages really quickly when another well known plastic cage maker screwed me. Alan had my cages ready in a week from the order date since this was an emergency! I like his cages so much, I went back and bought a few more two months later. I trust all my cage needs to Alan and will not buy from anyone else. A class...(trimmed)

Comments: just ordered one last week, I have met Alan a few times and he seems to be a great guy. I also bought my 03 hypo from Alan, he gave me a real good deal. At fisrt glance you would think his cages are boaphiles, but the doors are different and the hinges. Other than that they are basically the same, except Alan's cages are cheaper and it doesnt take 4 to 5 weeks to receive them.

I've done business with Alan in the past and haven't had a problem.. I don't understand how a private situation has anything to do with the way someone handles their customers.. I can be the meanest SOB on the planet but give excellent customer service and a great product at the same time.. I plan on ordering quite a few boa breeder racks from him in the future.

Someone who tried to close down the very site this very “Good Guy” post was made on, Is private?
Sorry, No! Character counts to!

Allan, a lot of the comments you posted predate that thread. For instance, you posted many posts just now from Steve Jordanides from 3/11/2004.

Post by Steve after you tried to shut down Fauna.

I am sorry, but I had to delete that post made by Alan. He had sent me an email requesting access to this thread, but apparently did not wait for my response. As such, he created a new logon ID in order to bypass the fine and suspension, and I had no choice but to delete his post. If he does pay the fine to be reinstated, I only soft deleted that post and can restore it at that time.

I have no grudges at all with Alan, as that stuff that happened a while back is just ancient history as far as I am concerned. If Alan would like to mend the burned bridge between us, I am all for it, but I do have to enforce the rules here, and this was clearly a violation of protocol.

Dear Jungle Habitats Plastics,

This email confirms that you have paid FaunaClassifieds L.L.C. (webmaster@faunaclassifieds.com) $10.00 USD using PayPal.

I too agree that thread is ancient history and has nothing to do with his business. Lets see if there is anyone with an actual complaint about his business or customer service...I bet not.

No, he did not pay the fine. That payment was for the Participant level membership using that new logon that bypassed the fine. I have refunded that payment and requested that Alan actually log in with his original ID, pay the fine, then allow me to clean up this mess by merging the new logon into his old one. I can then restore those posts made within this thread. He will then get the 1 month access to post on the BOI that he has requested. He just jumped the gun waiting for a reply to his email. Unfortunately, I was busy working with my own animals and impatience got the better of him. Made a lot more work for me this way, but it will all work out in the end.
