• 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.....

    =====================


    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 contacted JL after seeing their add on Kingsnake.  I ordered 6 temp probes and payed w/ paypal two weeks ago.  I waited a week and no probes, sent an email and was told his computer was in for repairs but the probes had been sent first class mail earlier in the week.  It has now been over two weeks, no probes, no emails, no phone calls. <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'>   I'm hoping this is a misunderstanding, but at this point I doubt it.  Does anyone known what I do to alert paypal about this and contest the charges?  I have the receipt of payment from paypal so I know he has recieved it.
 
3 weeks no reply no merchandise.  I think the verdict is in....
AVOID JL Herpetoculture!!!!!!

Jeff emailed the following to me and asked me to post it for him.  



"Dale,
I am at work and I can't log on to any boards or chatrooms. Can you (would you) please post something under the inquiry about JL Herp to have people check their email? I spent the last five days arguing with my ISP, Paypal, Yahoo.... I shipped out 387 thermometers to 83 different people, and in the end six have not received theirs! If you could do this, I would greatly appreciate it. Below is a copy of the email I sent to everyone.
Thanks,
Jeff




Again, I apologize to everyone. I am very sorry for the frustration this has most certainly caused for you. I sold nearly four hundred of the thermometers I had posted (387), and it appears that six of you did not receive them. They have now been shipped, and you may find the confirmation numbers below. I do ask that you try to be understanding and know that this was not an act of dishonesty. I was alerted of the problem last week by a friend who visits the board of inquiry. Within 48 hours of learning about the problem, my Paypal account was restricted and my email was blocked. It was very difficult to correct the situation after my means of doing so were taken away. I understand why complaints and inquiries were filed, but I do ask that follow up measures be taken. Please allow a few days for the product to arrive. If you have any questions or concerns after receiving the product, please feel free to call me. I had hoped to reimburse you for the inconvenience, but I am currently not able to send funds via Paypal. Some of you will be receiving extra thermometers.



I am terribly sorry for the problem this has been for you.
