    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.

    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....

If it doesn't make it, not in addition to which would have meant that he had 5 live skinks. He also reported to you within 24 hours that the one skink was looking bad.

Timeline?

Dan sends skinks = 1 day approx in transit
Skinks arrive at wrong location = 3 days at pet store
Luc receives skinks = they look fine
1 day later = Luc reports one looks dehydrated and thin; notifies Dan. Dan states

Any of the parties have differently?

Now to look up laws pertaining to selling/contracts with minors.

Well some companies have a "no live arrival guarantee" and some have a "live arrival guarantee".

My company has a live arrival guarantee and also includes a two-week health guarantee on captive born snakes, which is perhaps one of the best guarantees in the business. I should include that when the animals were delayed, I did inform the buyer if anything should happened to any or all of them during transit, I would give him all of his money back.

However in this purchase, the guarantee was extended for a skink to include a 5th skink for free despite all 4 arrived alive and this offer was well above the terms of purchase.

It was weeks later when the buyer killed one by force feeding against my recommendations, and unfortunately, the guarantee did not cover that issue.

Later, the buyer threatened and harassed which forced me to retract the extension of the guarantee and block his email. Afterward his father emailed to convey threats/references which were to extort monies which did not change the decision to retract the extended guarantee.

We can discuss what terms of purchase that's best suited for the industry and that may be a good discussion for a different thread although it may not impact other vendor's "no live arrival guarantee or live arrival guarantee."

That's because I sent him a photo...Then later Dan stated that he sent me 100% healthy animals that were fat! WHATEVER!
 
Alan:

I guess you will never understand.

As stated before, the buyer is a chronic liar who has intentionally not presented all of the emails and details of our phone conversations because he knows it will not work in his favor. The payments were made in the father's name. I did not know he was a minor until after the purchases were made.

And common sense should tell you that all of those skinks look alike and the buyer could have told me one or more died and I would not have known better and would have sent replacements later. Lets not allow common sense to slip anymore.

I understand it's not that easy to communicate via emails and such but get a grip and start making some sense of it all. I mean the kid told me he bought skinks before that died on him, so how am I to know this was my skink in the first place anyway? That crinkled skink he showed looked fat and sassy when I shipped him the 4 skinks or otherwise he would have a photo contradicting that fact when he received them. Do you understand now? No evidence, no photos, nothing by lies and misinformation.

I am still waiting an apology from the buyer for making good on his threats.

Dan
 
If you are looking for him to prove 100% that the dead skink is one of the ones that your agent incorrectly shipped, then chip your skinks beforehand. :rofl:
 
LIAR

Dan,
I never told you that I had lost skinks before! :angry: Dan I only talked with you over the phone once! It was about me recieving two pythons instead of the skinks. The rest of the time we e-mailed! Like I said I deleted all the other one's. which was DUMB! I trusted you! Do you have e-mails from me?

Dan I am going to look through every photo I have to see if I can find that photo of the skinny one when he was alive. If I find it you are going to be known as a liar...About the threats...You must be Crazy or something, There are no threats that I or anyone else can see. Except maybe you or your buddy!

Back up your statements!

Dan can you back that up with proof? You have not backed up anything with proof. The only thing you tried to back up was the threats of us stealing your collection, which were not there!

-Luc Cauthorn
 
But I might add again, a photo of your attorney's expression when you ask him to sue me for a skink that you killed by overfeeding it would be considered priceless.

Dan
 
Seems the buyer here is making a living off claiming dead animals and then selling them again on another webpage as seen below in his posts on fauna and ads on another sales forum.

Also, somone telephoned and left a message to inform that they buyer has a vendor's account on another reptile webpage which requires sellers to be at least 18 years of age and the buyer lied about his age.

I wonder if that webpage was notified of the buyers fraud, would they cancel his account and/or not permit him to establish another account because he lied.

Quite interesting stuff here and there on this so called kiddy buyer.

I have done bussiness with Jeff before and just wanted to post this.

He always answered all my questions promptly. I ordered breeding group of W.C. bloodline viper geckos, one died about a week or two later and he replaced it shipping and gave me another free female and male so sent me three more geckos for free with shipping being paid. All of them had superier blood because they had the W.C. Gene pool. That was not cheap.

Great guy, great service and stands behind his geckos 100%!

Thanks Jeff,

1 CB (female) and 1 W.C lineage (male) viper gecko breeding now!

This will be a very strong breeding project, because it will incorporate the new blood from the W.C. male, which will produce some very strong off-spring. They have had 8 eggs and lay 2 eggs every 10 days! THEY ARE VERY YOUNG!

They are priced at $150.00 + shipping!

Male is pictured above the female. She is tottaly Gravid.

Please feel free to ask me any questions!

Dan you are stupid!

I raised those and am selling off-spring uneeded adults ect... I am over running with viper geckos! Jeff sent me those geckos months ago! Jeff sent me three free geckos and shipping payed for. Dude your Crazy! The female is produced by me and the male is extra, from W.C. I don't understand why you posted this? It helps me nor you at all.....

I don't have adds posted with Fauna. I am not going to sell your skinks. WTF is wrong with you? You are talking about stuff you don't even know about!
 
Dan, it's not helping your case that you feel the need to 'dig up dirt' in an attempt to defend yourself now that none of us have bought into your claim that they threatened to rob you.

That is just Dan being Dan. Even when hit in the head with it, he will refuse to admit he is wrong. You had better be careful though, He WILL demand an apology from you! :reddevil:
 
I admit I was wrong to wait 4 months to wait for this kid to pay.

I admit I was wrong to extend my guarantee to include a free skink.

I admit I was wrong to waste my time to correspond with idiots.

Dan
 
By the way, I did not dig up dirt on anyone. Someone emailed me the information and asked to not be identified. It is no surprise why folks don't want to voice their opinion on this forum and face the same old jerks and idiots who detract from the topic with nasy worded idiiotic responses. And someone called and left a phone message about the kids fraud on another sales webpage. And many emailed to tell me the kid was some puke not entitled to anything but kick in his behind. He received his skinks alive and that was the deal period.

I don't know any of you read the thread, but the offer on the skink was withdrawn before the father's email which alluded to threats of robbery/suffering. I don't care how anyone else interpreted it, but that information was skillfully placed there in such a fashion to warn me without getting the father into trouble for assault. And it does not matter what anyone else things of it, as it was received by me as a threat, and that is what matters.

Dan





Dan,

I was just reading over the thread on the BOI, I've got no dog in this hunt but you may want to point out to everyone that this kid purchased some geckos from JMG reptile

http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=110125

what do ya know ?! Some of those died and were replaced by JMG !!

Behold, this kid puts them right back up for sale here http://market.kingsnake.com/detail.php?cat=31&de=583159

I've been in this business a long long time........its sounds to me like this kid orders stuff, claims it dies or doesnt know how to take care of the stuff and it dies....then wants replacments.

You may want to ask around or make a posting to see if this kid has done the same thing with other sellers/breeders out there.


Anyways.........dont bring my name up as I have no beef in this, but I wanted to point that out to you.
 
Is this correct that you were feeding and pumping fatty rodents into a skink the entire time you had him for a skink that exclusively eats snails?

No wonder it died.

And you have the gall to ask for another one and threaten legal action.

Take your pump to court or pump some funds from daddy's deep pockets when he explains that crap to his attorney.

Sorry to tell you this, But the thin one died today....I had been pinkie pumping it, this was the second time. It was collapsing and I knew I needed to get some food energy in him. I was too late. I had pinkie pumped him two days ago but he regurgitated half of it. So he only ate half a pinkie the whole time I had him! Keep me updated and sorry that this didn't work out. Shit happens. I froze him, and will ship him on request. I think that the pet store guy must have left them in the deli cups you shipped them in, or something, because like I said they drank for two-three minutes each when I received them! All the other ones look fine and are eating like crazy! I am feeding them smaller snails and more of them, that seems to work well. Thanks,Luc Cauthorn
 
Dan you are such a liar!

I fed it Pinky pumped it twice. the first time it was one newborn-3 day old pinky(small!). REGURGATATED! The second time it was half of a pinkie! It took that but died with it. you had it's system so compromised that it couldn't hold any food!

I did not throw those geckos right back out for sale! I am selling off my uneeded adults babies and other. Jeff and me are on great terms, I still contact him every once and awhile! Dan you dumb :censored: if I was doing something dishonest then why would I bring that up?

Let's here some more of your lies Dan...
