    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....

Bad Guy Robert Mcphee is a liar, BUYERS BEWARE!

In earlier post you said "sons"...now its daughters???

"...I was HUGE into reptiles 12-15 years ago with my son. I got out of it, but alls it took was my girls being into it and being on their science club boards and asking me to "get back into it", so I am, in a big way.......so I'm in the "find some cool people to deal with" phase ;-)...."
Does your kids sex change that fast??? Does it run in the family???

If your going to lie you might wanna write it down so it doesn't backfire on you...

Once again you skipped out on Dean's post...Here it is just in case scrolling doesn't work for you:

Can I ask you a couple of questions and point some things out to you? Doesnt matter, I am going to anyhow...

1) Why would you take days off of work and not have snakes ship to your work, especially when you have purchased over 100 snakes off of Fauna and your membership status states that you have been a member since July?
2)Did you do this for all of your shipments?
3)Do you feel that buying 100 snakes since your membership on Fauna gives you some sort of special status? I have bought close to 100 snakes this year from ONE seller! Does that make me any more special than anyone else, nope. But, I think I might be a little special to that seller ;)
4)You state that you do not have any complaints so what would you call the thread that Robert McPhee started, the complaint that Shadera stated regarding emailing her, Lucille's complaint, and another thread I saw regarding you backing out of a deal? You might want to check why people feel the need to add you to their blocked email list ;) By the way, this is NOT an open invitation to go ahead and email me as I undoubtedly will just use it against you in this thread.

Now for a comment...
I am sure you felt a little distrust for Robert McPhee because he may not have shipped the snakes on the desired date. YOu should have handled this with him... PRIVATELY. Maybe he had some concerns for the snakes health, weather, numerous other things.

Personally, I have waited months with a lot more money then 850.00 on the line with smaller names than Robert McPhee just because a seller didnt want to ship at that time. If they are guaranteeing live arrival, you are at their mercy and you should be. All they are doing is considering the animal arrives safely. Im not one to postphone a shipment unecessarily but I will ship out when its at the lowest risk for me as I guarantee my product to arrive alive.

Sometimes reacting without asking questions is not the best way to handle situations at hand. Patience is usually a good practice as well when it comes to shipping a live animal in subpar weather as well.

One last comment...
GET RID OF USING CAPS!!! It shows you as being immature at 50, at best.


Just dig deeper and faster... :thumbsup:
 
Koshy, you might want to read a few more words into that sentence you just quoted.....
"...I was HUGE into reptiles 12-15 years ago with my son. I got out of it, but alls it took was my girls being into it and being on their science club boards and asking me to "get back into it", so I am, in a big way

LMAO I apologize :ack2: ...just ate my own words

Thank you for pointing that out Harald
 
Kinda ironic that Nick would start a bad guy thread on someone and call them a liar in the thread title when he himself cant seem to tell the truth.

Its only fair that you see some of Nick's (colorado) morals, ethics, and business decisions. To read the whole thread http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=243987

Below is only a snippet of what you will find in that thread. Nick has proved that he doesn't have the ability to tell the truth and has no problem selling off a sick snake to an unsuspecting buyer.

~I work to the highest levels of care, and I am honest.
~I do NOT keep or sell sick snakes
~I do not, will not, and or would not knowing sell an ill snake.

I do not purposely sell sick snakes.

People, concerning any person under this roof, you'd NEVER have to worry about us knowingly or purposely sending you a sick snake, never! We're not of line of thinking, we do not need the money bad enough to purposely hurt others, it's NOT who we are!


And yet here is the email that he sent to his seller in regards to a supposedly sick snake. There was never any proof posted by Nick. The emails were actually posted by the seller.

Kev, Just saw a partial refund.......thoughtful.
What I will try to do over the next few days is try to sell this guy. If he sells for more than the balance I have invested, I will send you any overage. If he does not sell or if he remains ill/dies, I will let ya know. I increased temps and will monitor daily.
You're a Pro, all the way!
Thanks-
Nick

~... I do not keep sick snakes.

For once he's telling the truth. He tries to sell them off as quick as possible. He even admits it to his seller in the above email.




I stand by my the thigs I've said.
I stand by the way I do business and treat others.

And this is what he is standing behind.

So do you really want to take a chance that you will be his next victim of receiving a sick snake that may be so ill that he thinks it may die?
 
Not that Nick needs another nail to seal his coffin, but his profile states that he lives in Centennial, Co., the vet report posted is for a vet in Fort Collins, Co. Based on how he has presented himself on the BOI, I find it hard to believe that he cares enough to drive 100 miles each way to take the snake to the vet, further adding to the argument that this was not his vet report... :shrug01:
 
Nick you are not helping yourself on here.

Nobody (and I mean NOBODY) is buying the bull you are selling in these posts.

Maybe you are charismatic(?), tall(?), have a booming voice(?) in person but on here you are just another guy and it is getting worse and worse.
