    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....

Andrew Sury and Chris Estep ??!!!!!

We've purchased quite a few animals and a bunch of supplies from Chris at Reptile Haven. He's a good guy, although extremely busy. At the prices he sells stuff for, you gotta expect him to be busy.

Never heard of the other guy. Just a suggestion - limit your inquiries to one party per post. It will avoid a LOT of confusion in the end.
 
Don't even hesitate..........

Andy is a VERY good guy and VERY trustworthy. He and I have dealt with each other many times and Andy always goes out of his way and sends NICE animals. I know Chris also, and he too is a good guy and like the previous posts said, he is very busy, so just be patient. However, I would deal with either one of them in a second!!

Good luck,
Barry
 
I purchased a herp related book from Chris Estep, and the transaction couldn't have gone more smoothly.

I know it's not an animal, but I am located in Canada and not the US, and he made everything run quite smoothly...including paying the extra shipping costs!
 
Andy Sury

I've had plenty of good experiences with Andy Sury, aka Turtlepimp. His turtles are excellent, and he's one of the best people you could ever meet. He's been both helpful and generous in my transactions.
 
Ramona,I ask that you do a topic of TurtlePimp.

I have no idea of who Chris is and I am interested in what people think.

Thanks,Andy
 
Chris Estep is a GREAT GUY to do business with. I've been to his store before, and did several transaction with him - all are smooth. Buy with out any hesistate
 
You can't go wrong with Andy's turtles/torts. I've done business with him and his turtles were wonderful as were his business practices. He's a really nice guy who genuinely cares for all the animals he keeps!
