    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 Andrew Kozera aka Madsnake BEWARE!! SCAMMER!!

There are so many communications and excuses why lizard could not be shipped it would take me a week to get them up here, but this texting starts from 3/23/16:

3/23/16 11:42am Andrew:
I am at the shipping port in NJ waiting for a load to clear customs, I am stil hoping to get to fedex in time to ship today

12:04pm Tammy:
I have made arrangements for someone to take off work and I'm paying them to do thisto be here tomorrow morning I can't because I have a closing I have put off two days in a row now which I have had to pay $150 in closing cost extensions as we can't close in the afternoons only in the mornings because of lack of communication on your part so please either refund my money this afternoon or get to ship him out thank you.

12:04pm Andrew:
Fedex is until 8pm

12:05 Andrew:
So I'm really hoping to get out of here in 2 hrs

12:06pm Tammy
OKay either ship out today or refund I'm happy with either but this lizard has cost me nearly $700 now so I can't delay the shipping one more day

9:41pm Tammy
What dragon shipped out today?

9:43pm Tammy
was

9:48pm Tammy
I need to know because I'm paying someone to stay here tomorrow for me to pick the dragon up and we're all sitting here wondering what to do because I haven't heard from you just please give me a yes or no

3/24/2016
7:40am Andrew:
Did Kristian give you the tracking #

7:40am Andrew:
tracking number picture

8:27am Tammy:
I need to call right now that package says today there is no one here Friday Saturday or Sunday

8:29am Tammy:
There is no reason someone should not have called me back last night I know you saw that I was calling I know you see that I've been calling this morning you can take 2 minutes and call me and tell me the truth about what is going on

8:30am Andrew:
I can't not answer my phone you have to call Kristian

9:40am Tammy
you told me yesterday you had the lizard you called me on a three way conversation and said you picked up the lizard you were shipping him out yourself what in the hell is going on

9:40am Tammy
Kristian is not answering his phone you know this, please let me know if this lizard is going to arrive today

9:40am Tammy
tracking number doesn't even pull up and it says two day arrival I did not authorize a two day arrival and to send a dragon its only $27, so $42 on that box doesn't seem like its a box with one dragon in it priority express overnight from New York to Florida anyhow Kristian is not answering his phone why you told me to call him anyway is crazy you told me you had the lizard why would I even call him. Call me right now I need to know what's going on you can at least text me and let me know what's going on this is unbelievably ridiculous
 
Theresa,

Yes true. The dragon does not belong to you once you accept payment..it is another's property now and simply in your care until you send him on. It is mandatory to have authorization to change anything at all. Dragon is fine, but certainly a risk in 2 day mail..if all parties agree then no problem, I would not have agreed due to the things that were going on in my life at the moment.
 
Not to defend Andrew, but i'm sure you're aware what stress will do to the dragon's color. It sounds like he went though quite a bit with the two day shipping. Just my two cents, and i'm hoping it's right...because I bought a very bright red dragon from him Andrew (going on two days with no response with repeated text messages) and want it to be what i paid for.
 
The ad picture has been edited to change his color.
Stress doesn't change the base color that dramatically. So, Andrew, is IMO a scammer. Editing color in for sale pictures is a scam.

Josh,

I hope everything works out for you and that you get exactly what you paid for, I have my fingers crossed for you :)
 
Just to pitch in a thought... I've noticed with all of my beards (juvies and adults) that anytime they soak in warm water for a decent amount of time, they fire up (similar to a crestie), and given the fact that the picture from the ad was taken in a sink and the dragon is clearly wet, I would almost guarantee that that is exactly what he did to make it look so pretty. Try soaking the beardie in a warm bath yourself for 10 or 15 minutes and see what happens. Kinda a scummy move to not include both the fired up and normal colorations in the ad, but not necessarily a scam move. Just unprofessional.

I know mine gets much more yellow when he soaks, but his base color is still the same. He's just more dull when he hasn't been soaked. The actual color doesn't change for him though. He just gets brighter. He doesn't change from orange to yellow or anything like that. To me, those pictures are very different and most likely edited in some way.
