    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.

    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....

Beware of this buying ebts from this guy.I tried but he failed to let me know he sold the ebt we were talking about and failed to post the other was blind in one eye.Isn't that false adverstisement?
 
Any background on the transaction, communications between you two, or details other than what was posted above? Did you buy the snake or....?
 
Ahh, should have guess since turtle is in the OP's username! ;) I, being a snake person, assumed he meant to write ETB.

Ok, so back to the OP... you wanted to buy an EBT and it was sold out from under you and that you found out later it was also blind in one eye? Any messages or details from your interaction with the seller that can be posted here?
 
It was a female eastern that had been sold which even though he didn't promise to hold it,he still could of let me know while i was asking about a male.The male was blind in one eye which isn't stated on the post which was only a few days ago.

There are two separate issues here. The first is that you are upset with this seller for selling a critter that was for sale without telling you even though you had placed no deposit. You started a bad guy post on a seller for this? He was under no obligation to inform you that the critter was sold.

The second issue is that you allege one of the critters he had for sale had an eye issue. You state that you did not send him money so it appears that you did not buy this critter. How did you find out about the alleged eye defect and that it was in fact one of the pictured critters?
 
i have purchased 2.2 ebt from him two years ago, turtles where shipped great. communication was great, total cost was great, I never had any probs and even thought of and contacted him on buying again. i dont understand how this is a bad guy thread?
his prices are low and if your only spending 30$ on a ebt that is missing a eye....whats the big deal obviously the turtle is fine... its not like he is charging 250 like most people....

A defect of that nature should be disclosed if true, but how did the OP find out? If the seller told him, that is disclosure. If the OP did not tell him and he did not buy the critter, is it even true or how did the OP find out?

First the italics don't line up.

I believe the op is complaining about the advertisement of these turtles. If you check the bold it seems this wasn't disclosed in the ad.
 
After telling me that the female was sold i was i could make an offer on the others.Then i was told the male had blind eye which was not posted.Then when i said never mind his responce was ha,good luck. So i asked him if he thought this was funny and he said yes i do think it is.The point is to be honest and tell the truth about what your'e selling.

It should have been, but it sounds like it was verbally disclosed.
 
No just the attitude is a little

We talked 4 days ago and these animals are going fast. If I said I would keep her then that would be different. You can always make me an offer on the ones I have.

You look really petty Shawn. Can you post the ad please.

:iagree:

Also has the seller been notified of this thread?

OP you are completely wrong in this situation. I am sure you have made it on many sellers DNBFOST list. With the petty thread here, you will be more trouble than it is worth. IMO
