    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....

I recently did a trade with Danny. Some of my Skeletons for a few of his Amazon Tree Boas. Every part of this deal was great, His animals, Buisness demeanor, Prompt replies. I would recomend Danny to anybody. Also received one of the nicest female Hogg Isl. Boas I've seen.
A+++++++++++++ Danny!
Thanks....:)
 
I've done Business with Dan. Great animals,great service. He answered all e mails. I"d do business with him in a heartbeat! Dave Derrick
 
Not to sound like a harbringer, also I don't venture too far from my cave as some people know, but there are some serious issues over at my old website , corallus.com, going on involving Danny.

I don't have anything against him, never done a deal with him, but I've left that site because of the crud going on involving him and other regulars there. I got very tired of seeing people dodge the question or make light of it. Bobby of Aboreals Etc posted some of Danny's own E-mails that seem to diretly contradict other things Danny has said. There has not been any of this resolved and a "good guy" post popping up all of a sudden with the added post of asking any and all people who have had good dealings to post just seems super fishy.

I've been welcomed to make this my new home site and I'd like to see that nuclear meltdown over at corallus.com stay over there but when I saw this post just pop up coinciding with that misery I left behind I had to post my .02. Nothing personal Mr. Derrick

Even if this is just coincidence, the timing can make Danny look bad and extra fuel doesn't need to be added to that fire right now. this almost looks like a "muster the troops" call out.

They need to get things settled over there.

I don't know about what deal he has going on on the other website. The deal I did with Danny was perfect in all ways so I posted my experience. In no way was I asked or do I have any affiliation with Danny other than the deal we did as it was implied by Dark Grove

If you have also had good dealings with Danny PLEASE feel free to add them on to my thread.

Mainly because I feel if there is already a good guy post people should feel comfortable adding to it rather than starting up a new one if needed.

Please don't take this post as defensive just trying to clear the air.;)
 
Ralph,
More has been resolved than you know. Your assumption that I am "mustering" anything up is rediculous. I don't need to solicit anyone's support, I think all of my interactions with customers can speak for themselves.

Dave,
My website is still Urbanjungles.com but we are in the process of building up a new site so it's temporarily offline. How are those snakes looking? Drop me an email with some pics...!

Rafael, thanks for the good words man. I believe there is already another post on the BOI with regards to me that you can check out as well, should be easy to find if you do a search. Thanks for a great deal as well, it was a pleasure to do business with you!

Danny my initial post was actually in concern for you, not a complaint. A reasonable person might have interpeted the initial post, with a second post outright asking for others to post too, as exactly what I described considering the timing of the meltdown on the Corallus.com BOI. As for "things getting resolved I know nothing about" I don't see anything on that BOI being resolved and frankly I'd love to see it finished so why don't you post what has been resolved so I can have some confidence in things again instead of just saying things have been resolved, that looks bad plain and simple. What about those E-mails of yours Bobby dropped out of the blue? They don't make you look too good and I'd like to see them resolved.

I've never thought anything other than highly of you Danny, these things make ANY reasonable person ask questions and saying things are resolved without more than that doesn't answer questions....it leaves more.


Ralph


:unhappy: :unhappy:
 
It seems odd how this thread is just being allowed to slip away, nothing has changed or been resolved either on this thread or on Corallus.com..............





Ralph Chapman
 
For someone who said things have been resolved they haven't posted a single comment anywhere, despite popping in and being logged in once on this forum at least one time I'm aware of.


The meltdown at Corallus.com BOI continues and after the latest posts, despite my efforts, I'm truely done there now. Not often you get asked to leave.

Ralph
 
If you wish to continue a discussion about another message board or website, there is another forum on this site specifically for that type of a discussion. This thread in this forum is specifically about business dealings with Danny Mendez.

Thanks.
 
I have known Danny for quite sometime now and my deals have always gone smoothly with him. I would recommend that anybody who wants a kick a$$ arboreal and great customer service contact Danny!

Matt
 
Considering Matt and Danny's relationship is more of a business partnership in appearances (from my point of view) than a customer/seller one I, personally, won't put much stock in your post Matt. As webslave properly mentioned in that this thread is regarding how Danny does business I noticed Bobby kept it simple, read for yourself (there is alot...) about some of the current threads regarding his business dealings. Ther are also an annoying amount of attempts at distraction so I'll warn anybody ahead of time.



Thanks

Ralph Chapman
 
For all of those interested and the few that are on a mission, Danny and I are in no way partners, never were and never will be. His is simply a good friend and a customer. If any of you wonder where a large number of my arboreals end up you can stop wondering! :laugh:
 
I have had dealings with Danny several times, and I have always been more than happy with the reptiles and the customer service I have received from him. We recently completed a trade, and the gecko I got was even better than I had expected! Thanks again, Danny!
