    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 can't find anything really recent. Wondering if anyone has dealt with him at all? He goes by the name the Grooming Cottage and Exotic Critters? Feed back would be helpful! Thanks guys!!
 
While I cannot comment on his animals, Naim Khan (then operating as Amazing Geckos) stiffed us for table fees at our reptile expo a couple of years back.

He had been on our wait list for a table for some time. A cancellation came in, and he told us he would like to reserve it, and that the table check would be sent the following day. 10 days late, a couple of days before the show, I contacted him since we never received payment. He apoligized profusely, and guaranteed "absolutely, 100%" that he would be there, and would pay me the morning of the expo. Against my better judgement, and because he had been a vendor with us once before (and seemed like a nice guy), I agreed to this.

Of course he never showed up. We were sold out, and I turned away a number of other prospective vendors, even late the night before the show. I told him following the show, that if he had had the courtesy to call, even the night before the expo, I could have re-sold the table. Since he did not bother to do so, he was responsible still for the $65 table fee. The table sat there empty for the day with his name on.

Mr. Khan apologized, and promised to send payment. He never did, and refused to return phone calls from then on. The man is a lier, and I would certainly use caution in any business transaction with him.
