    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.

    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....

Ed Clark Where are you?

And for the record....

What do "newborn" ball pythons have to do with anything? Emily was supposed to have gotten "clean as you will find" CBB year-old females. She got parasite-infested, probably CH crap in trade for high-end crested gecko morphs.

Haha! From what i've seen mister Clark, you don't fly, you swim. I for one find it very fitting that you're the mod of the amphibian forum. Frogs are used to hanging around bottom feeding pond scum.
 
My response

I work nights so this is as an untimely response as some of the responses have been as childish and slanderish and insincere. I original purchased a group of 7 or 8 females for breeding. I have a huge colony of 20.50 and as many as 12 up- and-comers and 60-70 juvies. I don't mess around with cresties I breed them. Period. Ed sold me the group in the beginning of the year they were and are nice and well priced. Two of the ladies died shortly (2-3 weeks if memory serves) I emailed Ed he was gracious enough to volunteer no questions asked 2 replacements at a mutually agreeable timeframe. I didnt hear from him (Hotmail prob?) for almost 4 weeks after we last spoke. I emailed many times 8-10 via various methods(kingsnake, hotmail, and fauna) with no response. I know the rigors of working and having a business so the use of the BOI is one of the most effecient methods to approach a vendor or customer. I live near Canada and the window for shipping is closing rapidly. Hence the post. I would like to get the ball rolling so to speak before winter sets in and he has more of a hassle and I have a loose end. No if ands or butts about it. That is the point of the thread no slander no ill will. If Ed wasnt stand up about it he could of cut me off at the balls and back this whole process up to the start. He didnt. He offered unsexed animals I was holding out for some breedeable replacement females, he is in more of a position to offer other animals so be it I am thankful for whatever offering he has. Other than a communication issue which happens(see prior text) Ed has been on point. i look forward to hearing from you Ed with whatever you can offer, winter approches here faster than most so to expedite would be prudent. Thanks to all with concern. Happy Herpin
Happy Turkeyday.

Daniel,

Can you confirm that the original cresties that Ed sent you were normals as he has stated in post 32 and 39?

Since Emily sent him high end geckos that he said were the ones he shipped to you, I'm trying to understand Ed's lies...er...story.

And since I know nothing about crestie genetics, would the offspring of these be normals as well?

Have some unsexable cresties out of red breedings and would be happy to send you 2 of those, dont have anything sexable yet. Ed

And Bruce - to answer your question:

Emily Cook sent you bad crested geckos?

Seems like Ed's story is:

Click to expand...

Which has nothing to do with Emily.
 
Yet another attempt to destroy a member of this site.
The owners and controllers do nothing to stop it
more lost members there they go........ :shrug01:

so the ten month warranty on any geckos has not been disputed.
and same for ball pythons great.
so all of you guys better stick to it .
and better yet post it on your various sites.
I was told when i called my local pet store there is a out the door
warranty once its out the door or out of sight its out of warranty.

I'd just like to note that the females that I sent to Ed were smaller, juvie and subadult females (he even asked me at one point if I had any larger females available). Even if they had been larger adults, exactly how, from those e-mails could you have deduced Ed, that the geckos in question were two of the geckos that came from me, when Daniel's only description of them was that they weren't the smaller geckos? That only solidifies that fact that they weren't any of the ones that you got from me (thank god). It's nice that you decided to bring me into this but the motive is pretty clear.

Ed has 2 ads on Kingsnake for cresteds, one for unsexed juvies and one for geckos that appear female but that are being sold as unsexed. Can 2 of those geckos not be sent to Daniel in replacement for the ones he lost? In the time that has taken place since the first e-mail from Daniel there has been plenty of time for geckos to hatch and grow old enough and large enough to be sexable. What's the hold up? Daniel is right--shipping to him will soon be out of the question, and to leave this open until shipping is safe again puts the reality of him receiving the replacement geckos further and further away.

Mike, I understand what you are saying......it is true, Ed did promise you a couple of replacement animals, which was a decent thing to do after the amount of time that has passed. No, you haven't gotten anything yet, even though he should havehad plenty of time to do so, but if you're OK with the wait, that point is no longer the issue for you.....but personally, I wouldn't hold my breath about receiving anything if I were you.....and if you do, make sure you do fecals as soon as they arrive.

The big point here is that he is claiming the geckos that died were those he received from Emily.....yet he states he sent you nothing but normals, yet Emily sent him high-dollar morphs. So either he is lying and has no clue which animals he sent you, or he's lying to make Emily look bad once again. Just trying to figure out which.
 
It looks like Emily is getting a little desperate to prove the bad crested geckos did not come from her. I believe Ed when he says that they did indeed come from her. In my opinion, Emily needs to get her gecko collection tested for any horrible diseases before she sells to any unsuspecting people, just in case her geckos have something.
 
Emily sent Ed crestie morphs.

Ed said that Mike only got normals.

Unless Ed was lying about sending Mike nothing but normals.....there is no way they could be Emily's geckos.

So.....which thing did he lie about? :shrug01:

I would have thought even you could comprehend those bits of information, Bruce....short sentences, no big words....but apparently I gave you too much credit. :rolleyes:

You're a funny little man!

Ed already said to the OP that he suspected they died because they got too cold in shipping. How is that Emily's fault? Sounds like Ed didn't pack them properly if that's the case. But since he just sent the OP normals, then they weren't Emily's cresties anyway.

Go play in someone else's sandbox - now scoot!

Not funny.......................He is a SAD excuse for a human being.
These Jedi queers need some serious mental help.
They live in their own little fantasy world.

I think it makes Ed a bad guy just for the fact that he associates with these tools.
 
Um, when I said Mike, I meant Daniel....don't know where Mike came from.

My apologies, Daniel.

This is your second warning about off topic posting on the BOI brucie "the crybaby" stephensen.

The topic is your pal NOT sending the geckos he promised to send. Stick to that or points WILL be coming your way.
 
I already said it, but I'll say it again in simpler terms: I sent Ed juvenile morph crested geckos. The geckos that died were normal adult crested geckos.

If Ed sends someone geckos that were not produced by me, nor ever in my possession and packs them improperly, such that two of them die, that makes the only responsible party Ed himself.
 
but the fact that he stated that these were from Emily speaks volumes about character here. Great post Ed! now do you have proof of this or is this more character assasination like you posted about Emily in the moderators forum? just curious, would love to see you post your proof and "redeem" yourself here.
 
Ed Clark said:
Daniel, there is no crested gecko deal to close out! you contacted me months after I sold you some cresties that you had trouble with 2 of those.
Click to expand...

You are a disgusting lying sack of crap. Daniel clearly proved that he contacted you two weeks after they died. You stalled Daniel intentionally while you sold what could have easily satisfied him long ago.
 
ED...

Why don't you just send Daniel the two you have for him now? That way he's satisfied and you can get back to something resembling a normal life?

You are advertising cresties right now, so you must be prepared to ship. The window of opportunity on shipping is closing fast. Why not just get this (and the Dynamic Duo) out of your hair?

I don't feel it was necessary to bring Emily's name into this as it's just muddied the waters further, but that is just my opinion.

C'mon, Ed, step up to the plate, it's your turn at bat!:)
