• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Bad Guy Tony121204/Anthony Pappas is a scammer

I spoke to him, it is my real name. I worked it out to ship the torts had a flight booked rick had back surgery so the time was no good asked me to have them changed to get to him between hours 8-5 buisness hours to have his helper help him load the torts. I then changed it to a 615 am flight which required me to be at the airport at 415 am. No excuse I over slept and did not make it there at 415 am.

You are on this morning posting ads under a different name on this site.

Besides a IP match and activity on both accounts matching. Your previous ads match up as well.

Yeah, because both user names posted the exact same animals.

Same torts that laid the same amount of clutches, for the same price, same IP address and the same location.
 
I just sent my pics and now my flight info next and I spoke to Rick those torts looks nothing like mine his are actually a lot better looking and cheaper I charged 1200. Mr Dennis no it all.

Anthony, so far you have been nothing but defensive, and making excuses as to why this OP hasn't received his tortoises. Plenty of time has passed. You can be rude to Dennis ( which I believe will lead to infractions), or anyone else on this forum, but there has been not an ounce of credibility with you at all to this point.
 
Dennis,
Is that the ip address he is currently using? Or the one used to post the add? Or both?

Tony,
I tried to help you with the picture idea but the ip address thing is going to be hard to deny.. if I were you I would have already found as many ways as I possibly could to prove I'm not the skum your accused of being.
 
There is no way to deny what Dennis has posted. If it was just the ip, then maybe. But no way with the ads, too. A smart scammer would have changed some of the details. Those are the same things!
 
I'm not trying to be rude to anyone. I got the torts as a trade I proved I have them. I admitted i OVER slept. It's frustrating when you no your right but all the sudden I'm wrong no matter what I say. So if I post some thread saying he scammed me then he's all the sudden wrong?
