    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....

You still insist on your take of my statement and you're trying to change the subject.

Do you not agree that if you can't properly sex an animal based on pictures that you don't deserve money back if it turns out to not be what you originally thought?

No, I definitely don't agree. The person with the animal in hand can't properly determine gender, but you want the person only viewing pictures to take the responsibility for the mistake!? Pretty laughable, I'd say. If a seller makes an explicit claim regarding an animal's gender, then fails to deliver exactly what was promised, they find themselves in the position of needing to make the recipient whole. I like to believe that you'll have a hard time digging up any reputable seller who'd view your foolish assertion with anything short of utter incredulity.

The more you post, the more that face-to-face thing is likely to become more a matter of necessity than Your own personal preference. Among the many people who'll read your stated ideas here regarding a seller's obligation - or, in your eyes, lack thereof - to take responsibility for their mistakes in sexing an animal, I have serious doubts about their subsequent willingness to trust you from a distance - especially if gender matters to them.
 
I don't think Jon did a trade with me with the intention of ripping me off but after the animals I was supposed to get did not come through his ZERO attempts to make good on his end speak volumes of his lack of ethics and integrity. At no time after did Jon contact me with an offer of reasonable value, instead every 6 months or so I would inquire about what may be available. I recently texted him when I saw someone posted his phone # asking if we could possibly complete our trade with whatever he may have available, surprisingly he has not responded.
Maybe years ago Jon could be defended because he did what he said he would but for the last several years he has been in a pattern of deception and ultimately theft. The guy is no good and likely teaching his son to live the same way, after all the kid has a really neat dart frog collection...that he got for free.
JON BOONE AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! After 4+ years of waiting I think I have earned the right to say that.
