    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....

Inquiry Bpman850 Steven Miller *canceled payments for Bearded Dragon*

I tried to get him to ship later too, but honestly there's not much you can do about it when the other party dosn't agree and say's the poast office, said I'd get it by friday after 12pm
 
I can't believe no one has mentioned that it is a federal offense[/B} to ship live animals through the US postal service. Steven is getting deeper in doo-doo here!

Sonia, can't you arrange a return shipping with your account?

Incorrect.

USPS does allow the shipment of certain live animals but guarantees nothing.

Good job Sonia, that sounds much better.

As for Steven:
This goes out to susan and every body LOOK NOW BITCHES YOU ALL CAN GO TO HELL AND BURN.. HERE THE PROOF THAT I AM SENDING IT OUT WHEN I GET MONEY SO GO TO HELL

......isn't it interesting how Steven acts when he he is really telling
us the truth? He almost seems indignant that we don't believe him!!!!
It's kinda like what Tom said...."like a little 12 year-old"
Whaaaaa...whaaaa...whaaa!
 
One more thing I think of when I know it is Steven Miller arranging this shipping......Steven can print that label from his printer and then say it did
not print (it asks you if the label printed). He can then cancel the label and pay no money, but still be able to show us that
nice label he scanned ......but have NO intention of shipping the dragon.

Another reason I am glad to hear Sonia say she is providing a return label.
 
Talked to him and he say's he'll use my label to ship him out :thumbsup: hopeing I get him and will post pics of him after the dragon arrives and is warming up in a new cage for him (His old cage is now occupied)
 
Oh my what a thread. I hope Lance gets back safe. Poor guy. Someone needs to report him for the fraud on the Ball and nail this guy on something. He has suffered no consequences (besides our Fauna admin thank you guys for takin no BS!) So I think he's just gonna move on to the next seller... ;-( Draco- it sucks he tried to scam you. This thread showed me how useful the BOI can be for the sellers as well and while I am new to the site and learning all the lil great things, I do know researchin a buyer to some extent, like checkin the BOI is a great effin idea.
 
As for Steven, I don't think he has yet realized the extent to which he has dug himself a hole. When eventually, future prospective employers check out this thread and say to themselves 'maybe not', it might start dawning on him that his irresponsibilities are going to have consequences for him.
I'm sure a lot of people looked at this statement and disregarded it...but it HAS happened. I can think of a few people that have contacted me that were experiencing this difficulty because of old threads here that were found in a routine search (so these things can come back to haunt people years later).

This is absolutely true. I've gotten several emails from people who have complained that a BOI thread on them has cost them jobs when their prospective bosses looked them up on Google during the interview process. Seeing what they saw of the history of that applicant, they declined to hire them. And yes, they asked (sometimes DEMANDED) that I take down those threads. Which, of course, I refused. Which I will ALWAYS do.

So yes, people engaging in scams and defrauding people in what they might believe to be just a minor inconsequential segment of society can have far reaching consequences to their future in it's entirety. They might not like the only bed available to sleep in that they have made for themselves, but that was their choice to make.
 
Shipped out

Well the dragon was picked up ( Steven's mom payed extra for a pick up of the dragon). FedEx picked up the dragon around 4 Fl. time, and should arrive by 10:30am tomorrow morning. I called Debbie at reptiles express to conferm it also. And the dragon is on his way.

So if All goes well and he arrives pics will be posted of the dragon after he arrives and is warming up in his tank. And Will take him to the Vet as soon as I can. And, have a poop sample for them.:thumbsup::)
 
Thanks :) He'll be staying with me for all the poor guy has been through. Needs a lot of caring and love. plus some meds I do have albon and panacure from Beautifuldragons, but to be safe Gonna take him to the vet and get him clean.
