• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Had a really negative experience with him where he tried to intimidate my fiance into buying from him. He had some pink tongue skinks for sale at a price that was grossly inflated compared to the price they were going for last year, my fiance questioned him about it and he told her he actually was asking too little and that if she didn't want to buy from him he was about to raise the price. He then followed through with it and relisted his ad at a price $25 higher. When that ad expired and we had moved on, he relisted at the lower price, for what it's worth.
Reminded me of the stereotypical mechanic talking down to a woman, assuming she didn't know what she was talking about.

That's my original post.

I didn't make any false statements. From our viewpoint, we felt what you wrote in your correspondence was an attempt to intimidate Stina into buying from you.

apologize to the readers for making such statements without knowing all the facts
What additional facts do I have to know? I have all the emails between you and Stina. I have all the emails between myself and the business I ended up buying from stating the price I was initially offered and the price I ended up buying at. I have the emails from previous customers that bought these animals through you last year stating the price they paid.
I don't really need any more facts to support my original statement.

At this point you guys should probably just agree to disagree and move on... :)

Done and done.


And don't worry, I didn't take any offense to your 'tone' before. I didn't really interpret it as such. Like many here, I've 'known' you on these forums for years now and you'd be hard pressed to truly come across as offensive.
 
Dan, are you a broker for Michael Spellbrink?

Continually beating this drum isn't helping you. Everyone has tried to be polite but the simple fact is that you are wrong here. This topic is not only not BOI worthy, no one I know would have even been mildly annoyed by the Email exchange. I have never been a big fan of Scolaro's either but the simple truth is that he is right and you are wrong based on the Emails.

Let this one go. You are coming off as a bit hysterical by keeping it rolling on.

LOL, you type too fast Steve!


I'm an internet junkie that has to get the last word, apparently... perhaps one of my worst character flaws (I freely admit to having several)

Steve did say in his last post that he was done; if Dan let's it rest than this whole thing can likely be put to bed. Then we can all muster over on the Ed Clark thread and kick him around some more...
:rofl:
