    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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 Jeane Best & Wendy Childs

Oh and Wendy, if you ever actually attempt to address any of this make sure you have PROOF. Cause your word alone means absolutely NOTHING with all of the lies you have already been caught in.
 
Sammy,
Thanks for the plug. I do not think that there is an entity in Fauna that I would not sell to, although a few might have to wait up to two weeks for instruments of payment to clear before I would ship. There are a few Fauna members from whom I would not buy though :), unless sent on approval.
 
Hmmm, she was replying to the thread at 4:58 but seems to have left before hitting submit.

Dare we believe that it finally sunk in that she was *gasp* wrong *gasp*?

Nah, I bet she will be back to not address any of the questions asked of her......
 
With the exception of the waiver, I have asked Wendy not to make any more posts. In a phone discussion with Jim, I will repeat here what I said. I paid for the geckos from Erik. I paid for 7 gram geckos, to be shipped DHL WITH COOL PACKS. I didn't bring this thread here. Wendy did not either. The new hotmail account has not held all the 1000's of emails that come in daily as harassment. It holds 10 pages and then seems to trash them. Wendy does not feel that his emails are accurate, but with the lack of sleep we have gotten due to the harassing phone calls, she said it very well might have been over the phone they discussed it.

I can purchase and resell anything I want on MY website. People seem to forget it is MY website. Once I buy something, I own it. I have receipts for EVERYTHING to prove I bought it , where from, when, and that I now own it.

We make our own gutload. It is NOT purchased and resold.

No photos have been "stolen". All items posted are things that are here in this facility and have been photographed. The one in question -part- of a label that showed ingredients only- was removed as requested at that very moment.

FREE gecko food is no longer given out with every order from that manufacturer. A new manufactures product is being promoted and distributed with each sale.

I can have a shipment shipped to me in any mannor I choose to agree to. Erik had multiple phone conversations as well as emails with Wendy. I was the one who mailed him the DHL box and waiver. I Know we didn't send it for nothing!

I am not going to go into sensless posts about he said, she said. It's all about bad business ethics. If I shipped someone a dead animal, I like most breeders, would ship them a new one. No questions asked. This is in fact the 2nd time we have RECEIVED DOA. And the second time we almost got taken for.

Clark has used DHL for us instead of his UPS account. Interesting that he wont post that. Likewise Jim has been made aware of our UPS issues with his shipments. I see no mention of that either?

We had 2 packages get diverted due to weather this week, then grounded due to too many hours of flight time logged in with the crew. Those 2 packages took 2 days to arrive instead, and arrived alive. A healthy well started animal if packed correctly can sustain amazing things. Those hatchlings should have never been sent.

The waiver will be posted and then thats it. We have no burden to prove anything here.

In my conversation with Jim, I told him about leaving messages for Erik. I asked Erik to please call me so we could discuss the situation and come to a fair agreement. One of the calls was after he made the post here. He decided not to ever bother to deal with me. He never called or emailed. I not Wendy, I will NOT pay Erik for dead Geckos. The manager at my bank said that receiving dead merchandise in not within fair business practices. Erik will be paid for what is alive in a week. That is solely my decision. If you don't like it. I don't care!

We are sorry, this site is currently frozen for a potential violation of our Terms.
Freewebs offers free websites and web hosting to millions of web users.
 
Looks to me that you haven't got a website any longer for doing just that. Selling whatever you want to sell.
 
What else can she HONESTLY say other than "Yes I stole trademarked images off of sites and used them as my own, yes I took other people's products and tried to pass them off as my own, yes I repeatedly lied to cover my ass, yes I repeatedly lied to try and get a refund I did not deserve (same as stealing in my book), yes I lied to make others out to be bad people for my own benefit and gain, etc etc etc".

Anything else is just more lies.

1) You need to get your own account to post here

2) Your claims regarding DHL are worthless as you have no proof. It comes down to your word against his, and your credibility is non-existent.

3) I see where Wendy gets her business "sense" and people skills, that apple barely cleared the base of the tree when it fell.

4) You don't have to provide this board with any proof, makes it easier for folks to see through all the BS that Wendy posts and hopefully see what kind of people they are dealing with, or not dealing with if they are smart.

5) Did you see that swirling around in the bowl? That was your business and your reputation, I hope you enjoyed them both while they lasted.
:toiletcla
 
A few of my many customers and acquiantances out there know this to be fact. When I recommend other chamneleon breeders int he business, which I do, I have two criteria, both of which must be met. I make this very clear as the basis for my recommendation. In order of importance, they are:

1) If there is a problem, this entity will fix it.

2) Your expectations in buying from this entity are more likely to be exceeded than just met, and the likelihood of a problem is minimal.

Erik in Littleton, I do not rate you as a bad person by any means. You may excel at my second criteria, although this deal would be a blemish there. But I have yet to see you take a single action regarding this situation that meets my first criteria. All your actions here speak that you have much room to improve there. Whether or not the current situation was inevitable, we'll never know. A lot of "how not to's" in this deal.

Hey Wendy.... It just occured to me that IF indeed we did "agree" on DHL and YOU sent a box with a waiver where is the tracking number?? It never happend....


You did call me but the way that you treated me was not worth dealing with.. I emailed you a link to this thread when I posted it and all communication is to be threw here...


PLEASE have you bank call me at (303)-905-1592 as I would like to talk to them too.... Also they have to talk to me before they can give you any money back. They cant just refund you with out hearing the truth!

Thanks Erik

Oh so now someone else enters the mix :rofl: I don't think that you are getting all these "Harassing E-mails" I personally think this pair is full of :censored: And You know what I don't care how you feel about that :>poke2<: You and and your partner/daughter are theives and please save your fingers the pain of typing "oh how wonderful your business is going" Because IMO this is where your business is. :toiletcla

Yet you have absolutely no proof of this. With the track record you have I must call BS.

Yes but you cant claim it as your own. Which has already been proven that you did.


spokanelizardlady said:

Again, absolutely no proof what so ever, just your word. Which has zero credibility.

It's amazing that you feel absolutely no responsibility at all for the death of that animal. Not being available to accept delivery voids his TOS for live guarantee. And just maybe he would have bent his TOS for you if you people would not have attacked him, cussed him and treated him like crap right away instead of handling the situation like a mature adult.

Jeane Best

Again, you are taking no responsibility for this at all even though you people admit the UPS man came and you were not available to accept the animals on first delivery. Which voids the live arrival guarantee. And you are not going to pay him for mistakes that you are responsible for. Which now makes you people not only unethical and liars but thieves as well.

Congrats Jeanne and Wendy!!! Here is your sign :toiletcla !!!

Welcome to the dark side, I am sure all the other scammers will happily welcome their new brethren, Jeanne Best and Wendy Childs!!!

What would you like me to do? You want me to refund her money because she admits that she wasn't able to sign for the package but can hear the truck leaving?? (Why couldn't she hear the truck coming>?) I normally would make good but not in this situation... With all the lies that she is giving to try to protect herself I cant see my self doing that here..

Thanks Erik

Yeah Jim like approaching the matter as a professional mature adult. Instead of yelling, belittling, lying, cursing at and threatening people right out the gate.

Try the former first and you will probably see a different result completely.

Jim, I have to ask, who gives a :censored: about your criteria? :raspberry

Seems to me you have the blinders on yet again. How do your pals Jeanne and Wendy measure up to your criteria? Still trying to push the blame off on Erik? You just can't let the girls lie in the bed they made? Why do I get the feeling that you have been coaching the pair via e-mail, phone, PM, carrier pigeon, etc... since this threads inception? :rolleyes:
 
I think it goes back way further than just this thread, Sam.
