    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 Jeane Best & Wendy Childs

I wasn't going to get into this thread but I'm curious about something (well, maybe more confused then anything). Wendy, for not being okay with shipping UPS, this email that Erik already posted sure makes it sound like it wasn't a "deal breaker"...

No problem. Sounds good. Although I have won multiple bets with everyone and some free cresties betting that our UPS driver is a piece of sh**(I edited this because of the cus-word). LOL He drops and runs. Never even rings. I havnt signed a package in 2 years, no matter how many stickers and stuff say he has to get it. He is worthless! I just hate that guy. So now I will have to wait upstairs so I can listen for his truck on Tue By all mans if you ever use a different shipper, feel free to do so!

For someone who wants a refund, you aren't trying very hard to prove your case. Surely you don't get so many emails a day that you can't find time to take the 3 minutes it would take to find these emails you speak of... Perhaps you're mistaking Erik for Tanner Stevens (greenmonkey515) who posted in post #97 that you wouldn't buy from them unless they shipped DHL?

Sorry, a little confused...

Hey, nutjob, is that the Acme Dymo Super Digger Grave Digging Shovel you've got there?

That's a beauty. Got your hole nice and deep in right quick time too.
 
What I was saying is I dont have time to do it right Now. I will in the am. I have to go to bed. It is midnight here I have been up since 8, hence when me and Jeane heard the truck drive away at 9:30. I have a biopsy at 8:30am. I will email someone all the pics to post since I do not know how to.

Crazy and stupid.

Erik, I highly recommend you institute a customer screening program immediately.
 
We WONT BUY FROM ANYONE who shipps UPS period. The same thing I told Tanner I have told Erik, Chamco, everyone. Ask anyone.

And sorry Stevens (greenmonkey515) someone has turned off our site being nasty and bogged down the emails with spam. 3 days of pure hell now. I havnt even had time to post here. All the calls, ect.I was not able to get back to you at all. Then all today this. I didnt have a number to call you. Thats no excuse. I always pay when I say I want it I do. Sorry.

That is NOT a "sick" crested... Look at that tail.... A sick crested would NEVER have a tail that big....

Thanks Erik

I had to drive 32 miles to meet the truck and the driver had me sitting there an hour. Get home (2:00pm) to see that
You know, if you are going to make up things, remember what you just made up in the previous post.

NOW she has a pic and not only that, but can upload to send an email but not here. Well, ok, we've already established that these two are not the sharpest theives out there.

Erik, I would NOT refund these two a thing. Even if you do get the body back, it's not your fault it's dead.

They obviously killed it through stupidity, afterall, who but one truly stupid would know the driver was at the door but not be there soon enough to stop him from driving away? Well, there is the possibility that it is simply a lie that they were there at all which would explain their inability to stop the driver.

I just see one lie after another from the spokanites, one lie after another.
 
Why would you wait to you get home to open the box? After all it was a well-wrapped death trap, as you have attested to. 32 miles traveling back in a box of death! Sounds inhumane.
 
And YET another PITTY PARTY in honor of Wendy.Too bad for you. When a bear poops in the woods , he knows not to take a step backwards. Maybe you should learn from the bears. UPS makes mistakes in Spokane , Wendy's geckos were to be delivered by UPS , therefore Wendy should have been ready ,possibly out by the street selling koolaid or something waiting for the truck to come by.But no , Wendy was probably sitting on the edge of her bed talking to Jim (Cham Co.) on the phone trying to get him to feel sorry for her and finding out how to get REVENGE on Timmy(me) and Eric(webber) from the other day.
 
Thanks Dennis!

Also this is what I emailed her:

ME:
Hey, I just got it! I will ship your order out on Monday for a Tuesday Delivery!! The package should be their by 10:30 or noon (which ever UPS offers, although I always do the earlier time!)

Oh-ya, The package will need to be signed for too...

Thanks Erik


HER:

Please dont tell me know didnt know I was shipping UPS! Their was NEVER an arrangement for DHL nor did you ever mention it.... This is the only email that we ever talked about "shipping" in!

Thanks Erik
 
Wendy emailed me some photos of the Cresties. I will have pictures of the shipping boxes & pictures of the Cresties on scales shortly.

Maybe not all of us act like its an early Christmas when our packages arrive , but I sure do. It doesn't matter if its UPS, DHL, FedEx or who ever delivers my animals ,I have to open the box right there at the truck and show my purchase off to the driver.It doesn't matter if its in my driveway, at the loading dock or on the highway,I open the box right away and inspect the contents at the delivery truck.I'll be damned if I'm going to drive 32 miles back home then open it. Who's to say that Miss Wendy didn't stop at Wal-Mart and Panda Express on the way home from meeting the driver and left the geckos all boxed up sitting on the dashboard while she went shopping and stopped for a bite to eat.
 
Here's the shipping box...

I must say that it was really stupid to cut chunks of the insulation out've these shipping boxes... :slamit:

I think you go a little far in saying it was really stupid.

There were no heat or cold packs. There was no need to keep it sealed. There was NO expectation of exposure to, and indeed had wendy or her mother did as they should have and met the driver at the door, extreme heat.

Those holes, when covered by the cardboard and that cardboard being sealed with tape, would not, in the few hours the geckos were inside, have contributed to the demise of any who may have died.

Those cups also look to be six in number and not crushed or dented at all.

wendy, I think you told a string of lies. I think I am not alone in thinking this.

Was there 7 or 6 geckos in the box? Were the cups damaged or not?

You're not smart enough to pull this off. Not even with chamco in your corner, you're just not going to pull it off.
