Rainbow Bearded Dragons

I got a really nice male a couple of months back, he is an awesome awesome dragon. I have nothing but great things to say about this experience! I just wanted to give them some credit for the awesome work that happens up in Portland!

I really could not have been happier with this purchase! The dragon came in looking just as brite and alert as it looked in her photos. The dragon was not in any type of container, just lose in the box (what?! I know, kinda crazy!!!) but I got over it because he looked HAPPY and was alert and ate RIGHT AWAY! Still to this day he thrives and he gets a lot of compliments. It's cool because people see the same thing I saw in him. I have more males than I need and this guy was the ONLY one that I could not resist purchasing him!!!

Thinking of getting some german giants from them..Any more feedback would be helpful

Not in a container? that puts up a lil bit of a red flag for me. Did it have a heat pack in the box?

Extremely crazy!! Was he just floating around in the box?

No my dragons aren't floating around in the box. The boxes are size proportionate for the size of the dragon. The box if filled with shredded paper towels. Some dragons are in containers or bags. Depends on the weather I'm shipping in and if I'm using heat packs or not.

I have never had a D.O.A. in 8 years and my dragons arrive aLive, alert, unstressed and ready to eat. They also arrive safe and sound and I have never gotten a complaint but compliments on how well I pack my dragons. The boxes are new, insulated and taped to the max. I also have a live arrival guarantee but never have had ONE D.O. A. Dragons arrive safe and sound.

To Wilson ,I told you before Wilson digs to stop putting negative thing on ad.s or about me . I just had a run in with this person today 5-18-11 and asked they stay off my ad.s and stop e-mailing me with negative comments. This person have never even bought a dragon from me.

I never told you how to run your business, I had questions you did not want to address. I was interested in purchasing from you, but I wanted clarification on a few points regarding certain aspects of your business model. Until I noticed the "get lost" comment just now. I asked about the lineage, clarification on the reasoning behind your naming system and for pictures of a certain dragon under natural lighting. I was interested in buying, I wasn't trying to attack you or your business.

You assumed I was verbally attacking you and sent this email:

Tamara

I replied with the following email. The tone of this email is a bit less friendly and inquisitive than the phrasing I used on Tamara's ads. But I was surprised and a bit irked by her dismissive attitude.

I am not sure how my remarks were negative and I did ask a question in my posts but you decided not to answer. Instead, you just deleted the thread and started a new one. I will ask again:

How do you determine a new line when there has only been a single clutch produced and neither parent was bred by yourself. Not only that, but you do not even know where the matriarch of your new line came from? So I asked if there was a reason you were charging a premium for a simple hypo of indeterminate background or if was just another marketing ploy. I suppose it might sound negative, but if you had a legitimate explanation to support your reasoning behind naming the hatchlings of EVERY female you own as their own special line of unique quality then you wouldn't be so offended.

You are more than welcome to report me though I don't think are grounds to lodge a complaint against someone for asking for additional information. I was quite careful to phrase my comments objectively and to even through in some compliments to soften the blow of my hard hitting questions. Perhaps your donor status on the site has some sway?

Since you don't want me posting on your threads, I would also like to take a moment to ask why you feel the need to post each dragon individually on an almost daily basis? They all resemble each other quite closely and you seem to be hogging quite of bit of space on the front page by doing your postings so aggressively. But since there was no real question about the actual animals, I hesitated to post on the subject. But if conversing via email is more comfortable for you, that is fine.

Thanks!
Wil

Regardless, you do not want my business and that is fine. There are other breeders to whom I have posed similar questions and gotten satisfactory answers and explanations. At least in many cases. Though there are some breeders who immediately jump to the defensive or become hostile. These are "red flags" to me. You were on this list of overtly defensive people. The threat to report me for asking for more information lead me to the BOI where I found glowing remarks about your business. I did comment that I was surprised that anyone would ship a dragon loose in a box. But it is hardly an attack on your character.

I am not singling you out. I am not trying to damage your business. I am not trying to bother you. But I was disappointed in your lack of customer service and finesse. Your response was over the top for a customer who wanted to understand your system better.
