    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 Hurricane Exotics: Adam G.

As I personally messaged the buyer through a PM two days ago, saying we can resolve this if you work with me. And even if this was a through a PM or NOT, I STILL will do the best I can do. That is that. Buyer never responded, it seemed out of ignorance. I don't know...........
 
Adam,

I'm happy to see that you reached out and want to resolve this!

Not to sure on why he hasn't responded to you..
 
I still haven't seen the INVOICE of the VET BILL in the Amount. Im aware the price of the Dragon, which Im sorry... 5 months later I DO NOT Have the Money. You still could have sent the Dragon back immediately to me if you were unhappy or concerned and it would have went in a complete and opposite way. I would have refunded in FULL, PAYED FOR SHIPPING, and taken care of un the unknowledgable circumstance myself. Once again, I did not cause nor inflict the disease on the Dragon. I purchased her as a wholesale investment. I however, especially if done within a better time frame, could have taken care of this a while ago too.
 
I don't know either, and it was 2 PM's on Faunaclassifieds as well. DIRECTLY TO THE BUYER. I am a Professional, in which I intend to keep my reputation as one. I don't have to discuss my deals or resolve a buyer's issue PUBLICLY, which is why I took the initiative to do so privately between us two parties. Obviously the buyer ignored it, stubbornly, and wants to just ruin someone's reputation out of spite. I cannot afford to refund $425 (Dragon, $200 VET, and probably $75 for the care they invested in the Dragon since they received it). Which in their case, was pretty much the direction they seemed Reasonable.
 
I have brought a Dragon or two in a lifetime for minor health reasons, looking at a $75 exam fee, and med's ($35ish). THAT I can afford. THEY SHOULD HAVE SENT THE DRAGON BACK AFTER THE DIAGNOSIS! I still would have paid the SHIPPING TO SEND IT BACK, and the VET BILLS for "time and suffering".

Instead : LETS KEEP THE DRAGON, DRAG THIS SITUATION OUT ..... and then try to dump this guys reputation on Fauna.
 
The Message from Sofaking was received instantly... how funny. This seems to be JUVENILE as anything I have probably endured in my childhood days. Only took two seconds to recieve a PM, yet.... Ive been waiting for a resolution for Days. But your quick to respond PUBLICLY about ranting and BASHING. How Nice.

Ide love to see how you do business as well MJOHNSON.

Never mentioned anything that would make someone think that.




The only person who should consider that tactic is the buyer, not you!




I was hoping that Adam would do the right thing, but I'm starting to agree with you that It's not looking like he will






I agree and respect someone with integrity!



I was hoping that Adam would see a unbiased parties opinion and work things out, and to do the right thing. It seems like that won't happen. It always amazes me how someone who can work so hard to build a respectable business, will through it away on something they can easily fix... Sad!

Sorry Mike J, I was hoping to help resolve this for you and it seems it fell on def ears.

Or will this be some delay, just like the VET Bill took two months to show up. And for those saying those Pics were cropped, that's B.S. that was an ORIGINAL PHOTO just didn't have the foot in it for the site. ALL PICS POSTED WERE ON KINGSNAKE in the AD. which SINCE WE WERE not well known back then, was the ONLY WAY TO LINK TO OUR SITE. So you must have seen those too.

I never mentioned or agreed that the pics were cropped!
 
If and when I have received an unhealthy Dragon or even a simple question b/c it had a goopy eye, bump, crooked tail, emanciated in weight... or ANYTHING that I am unhappy with. I WILL CONTACT THAT BREEDER VIA EMAIL IMMEDIATLY and want a Refund. Despite WHAT THE BREEDER "ASKED FOR MY OPINION". I did not HIGHLY ENCOURAGE, or inded tell them AT ALL COSTS to avoid a VET. If it seems severe, or cause for concern, then seek professional Medical Attention or diagnosis. That was Buyers choice to wait sometime. It was NOT bad (Vital Signs) at all and kept in a great ENVIRONMENT AS WELL AS ALL OF MY ANIMALS. I would have noticed something wrong and wouldn't have sold it, BROUGHT IT BACK UP TO PAR in health for myself to breed. Not for the animal or for a relationship with a customer to have to go through all this. FOR ALL OF US.
 
Sorry SofaKing, I DO apologize, I quoted the entire wrong thread by mistake. Im at work, I rushed through some posts too quickly trying to pinpoint some Blows that were thrown at me.

I'm not sure if it didn't notify you that it messaged you back but you can see that I message you back a little while later. I was glad you reached out. You can pm me if you want to do this privately or you can keep posting on here. Whichever you prefer.
 
Hopefully, while arguing in your defense, you took the time to visit OP's profile page, where you left a note for him .

You sure are quick to put him down.
 
Buyer DID. In my response was:

Like I said IM NOT on Fauna much and HAD NO IDEA to look for the message response by having to go BACK ON YOUR WALL....... I thought it would be in my Inbox. This has gotten completely out of hand.

Which is all true. I hate fauna b/c of the Scams and im truly a Loyal Kingsnake.com'er . Aye yai yai

Buyer literally just taught me how to do THAT. I would have thought it would be in my INBOX as a PM. I EVEN AS A BEARDED DRAGON BREEDER WAS NEVER ON HERE. always BEARDEDRAGON.ORG FOR

Years!

I wanted it to be a convenient convo between us two... NOT TO HAVE TO SEEK and Search for a response.... duh. Common sense guys.
