    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

shipped out dead reptiles , sold WC as CB didnt return e mails or phone calls
Nate Swanson ships ,dead , junk, and sick reptiles :censored:
 
Yeah, I typically avoid Nate at shows. We had a bit of an altercation on FB, which left a bad taste in my mouth. From what I've read on here about him, my impressions of him were spot on.
 
evidence

yeah what kind of evidence would u like a sample of the parasites that were in the reptiles , doa pics on the day of arrival,maybe nose rubs and foot infections from being kept in a small box

??????
 
if you have proof why not post what you have...you come off as arrogant drawing this out and not just posting what you have from the get-go.
 
wasting my time

kool u must be his bud , not sure how to show pics on hear, not to mention i was just warning people so they don't get ripped off
but if u want to play that game then fine, i`ll just site back and let people like him take advantage of others reptile enthusiast. thanks for being a ............. well u know the rest best wishes on your next shipment ..
 
david , u gotta see it the way people here do things , no matter what proof is required otherwise anyone could come here and lay claims with no back up.
 
:rofl::rofl:ok things went astray from the message,he sent me trash and lied!!! anyway that's just my experience with the dealer ,say what u will think what u will ,im just telling my side of the story . im dealing with tards:rofl::rofl:
 
David, you are coming off like the bad guy here, with your attitude and name calling.

No one is going to believe you with that attitude and no proof... i.e. emails, pictures

That is how people (members here) come to their decisions. I don't know you, so why should I believe you? I don't know Nate Swanson either, but he is not here to give his side of the story.

Which brings me to my next question, have you notified Nate of this BOI thread?

when you post a reply, click 'go advanced' then click 'manage attachments'; from there you can upload the photos from your PC to the thread. You can also 'preview post' before hitting submit to ensure the photos uploaded correctly.

Also, name calling is not welcome here so cut that out
 
Visiting seattle reptiles (Nate's store) Is proof enough of the kind of scum this guy is. Parasites, dozens of turtles, fish, axtols, frogs, snakes, rodents, all shoved into containers that are way too small for the amount of animals he has in there. I would post up pictures, but I refuse to step foot in that store ever again. As I said in a previous post about Swanees Exotics/Nate Swanson/Seattle Reptiles, honestly one of the only times I would refer someone to Petco/Petsmart for better quality animals. Never do business with them, unless you want sick/ half dead animals.

Nate was banned from this site for a reason. He was weeded out for trying to get people to bring W/C local Washington herps in, and he was going to pay for them and try to make a quick flip on the animals. So sad for the poor local wild life.

Proof is in the BOI

This guy deserves all of the bad talk.

Thanks for listening/reading.
 
I believe Nate does not have a fauna account any more after attacking a admin demanding money back, I know he is banned from kingsnake for stealing photos
 
Being that he has two accounts and has attacked Nate before saying he never got his animals and now its dead on arrival this shows either David is A: not the brightest bulb in the bunch for trying to buy from Nate again or B: just dragging it on when anyone who does a search of Nate Swansons passed will know how terrible his animals are.

Another question.
Why do you have 2 accounts? This BOI was started by you, or someone with your exact name

I'm waiting for a reply to this, myself

If Nate was banned from this site (and I believe he was), it WAS for a reason.....however it wasn't for the reason you posted. People get banned from this site for things they do HERE.
