    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....

Bad Guy dont ever go through dvm exotics

...will this thread hurt my buisness,not at all ive got plenty of ppl who will still deal with me.so everybody have a nice day.and mothers on demand (mod)make sure u guy stay happy and in wonderful moods

Actually... how you conduct yourself on here WILL either help or hurt your business. I dont know how many folks have said the same thing as you only to have several folks speak up saying they would never deal with them..... so yes.... it has the potential to hurt your business.
 
Just for the record, taunting the moderators is probably a poor choice....
 
people people take a valium or something its between me an him....

If it was just "between you an him" then you should not have started the BOI thread. That makes it everyone's business. And YOU still have not answered a single question asked of you, nor offered a shred of proof to back up your anemic accusations.

I didn't bother with the rest of your quote because it didn't make a lick of sense. So maybe you can't actually understand the questions asked of you any more than you can make yourself understood when you type??? :shrug01:
 
I completely agree with both Kevin and Judy... Anything you type on the BOI is Public and when people read this they may consider other options then to do business with you.

As far as the Mods go.. they keep this site mostly civil so I would be very wary of what you say to/about them.

I fully agree with this. I would never do business with you after reading this post.

How bout this new title: don't ever got with or through Yankees186'd???

I don't know about you, but I prefer to do business with people who's English I understand. A.) I can generally know I am not dealing with a 14 year old kid, and b.) I know there won't be any misunderstandings based on garbled messages.
 
what the hell is this thread about. am i missing something or is this thread 5 pages of pretty much blank, worthless crap. this thread means absolutely nothing. it shouldnt be very difficult to move on pretend this thread never took place.
 
flaming comments?

hi all,

never had any issue with chris, communication or otherwise. very patient, helpful and straightforward!

do not have much time so haven't posted at all. this is my first post because I could not leave these flaming comments uncontested!

steve

I like how you are the third to reply after 2 people asked for proof of the deal turned sour. Asking for proof to support his claim is not flaming. In the BOI rules it is recommended to show proof to support your claim because it will lend light to the whole situation where 2 sentences do nothing of the sort.
 
Ryoko,
I may be mistaken, but I believe he meant that he had never had any problems with Dr Stancel (DVM Exotics). At the time of Steve's post, the only negative comments were made by the OP. Both parties having the same first name makes it confusing when they are referred to that way.
 
This is by far one of the funniest cases of "thread title reversal" I have seen in a while.

Epic, epic failure on the part of the OP.
 
To Yankee; sdjfksj sjdfgh dfgh. fghdfghsdlf.dflghsdl fg. etc. etc.

Did u get that? I translated all the questions for u so u can answer them.

This thread will never die. A perfect example of what not to do in the BOI. U will probably never buy another herp from this site again. I'll have the upmost respect for anyone patient enough to finish a transaction with u.

...What a waste of air...
 
Stuff like this used to make me CRAZY. I would have people email me to see additional pictures, then ask for me to place a snake on hold while they think about it, then -- request that I drive 30 minutes so they could look at a single $25 corn snake they were considering purchasing. Amazing --- but this is what you deal with when you sell reptiles. This OP is ridiculous but not out of the ordinary if you breed and sell reptiles.
 
I would just like to say that I know Dr Stancel (Chris..the one from DVM not the OP) and I trust him so far as to give him a female and tell him to just pay me at the next show. He went so far as to ask if I was vending a show before then and he came as a customer and paid me then. He is an excellent vet, and I have a dragon with a few less gall stones that can attest to that and he is an honorable person and I was shocked when I saw that someone started a bad guy thread against him. The OP is obviously missing a bit of gray matter but it really stinks that he would try to tarnish the reputation of a hard working and honorable person like this. Shame on him.
Dale
 
Thanks Dale,

I appreciate the good words. You have great dragons and would continue to buy again from you when I need more. i know you care for them the best way they can be and see medical attention if and when they need it. I personally can attest to that as your vet : )

This post will never go away. Even though it didnt hurt me in any way and the situation wa soriginally handled as bets it could be it just puts a bad post to my name. Wish it would dissapear! Just seeing the title upsets me every time I see it! Hopefully it will fade back away again and not be seen on the front page of fauna again. If the posts stop it will : )

I need to clarify some things about this Bad Guy post by yankee789 aka Chris Kalesnick.

First to clarify Maia Im not the one that wrote/ typed in that way, the original person posting the claim did. I do know many veterinarians are not too good on computers but I am and even wrote publications.

As far as the bad guy post and not knowing how to run a bussiness.... Breeding is not a bussiness for me. I am a veterinarian. I breed for fun. I enjoy these animals and the excitement of producing them. My job as a veterinarian is the main part of my life and consumes a big part of my life. I work many hours every day and am on call for emergencies so even when I may leave the hospital I may have to go back if an emergency is coming especially if that is an exotic.

That said the problems with this transaction first occured when I received many messages from the buyer through out the morning, a good part of them complaing I wasnt answering them. Ok hard to do when I am seeing patients at work. So I still went on to reply to him. Clarified that I am a vet and cleared that up. We then went on to discuss the animal he wanted to purchase, I was on a break from the clinic so I had time to do so while trying to feed and clean all my animals before I went back to work until 10 pm last night. Before money was sent I explained to him it would be hard to ship the gecko out on thursday as I am on a split shift meaning I could possibly leave by 1pm and be able to ship but there is a good chance that I may not because of my profession. I stated tuesday is my weekday off and my best day to ship. He kept stating he would send the money but try hard to ship thursday, I kept giving him the same reply. He sent the money. With the same response of trying to ship it out thursday and gave him my response that I would try but could no gaurantee it. I then informed him I was going back to work and couldnt reply until late that night.

Well....it then turned in to him demanding I shipped the gecko out thursday. Again him sending MANY messages to me that I could not answer because I was at work.

To make this already long story short, I had a break between appointments, replied to him and refunded his money because I didnt want to deal with him any more. I asked him to never contact me again and I informed the fauna moderator. I have every message he has sent me and I have sent him. Even to the point where my messages are 92% full from all of them. It was just too many messages to post plus Im going to back to work againt his morning.

If that makes me a bad bussiness man then so be it. I refunded his money immediatly and was able to reply to his messages when I could. Not every 10 minutes like he sent them. I hope he finds the gecko he wants but it wont be from me.

Christopher Stancel, DVM

ALL I HAVE FOR YOU IS NOTHING BUT RESPECT..........:thumbsup:
