    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....

Now that was a apology. One that I can except but can still not forgive. I will let this go now. But know that I will never do business with you.

So I will forget but not forgive.
 
Thanks guys. i was about to buy some leopard geckos, but he sounded like a scammer. he said he would sell me tons of wholesale leos and other reptiles, and he told me that he already sold lots, which is evidentially a lie. Thanks! I turned him down!
 
Mr. Perkins had a month on that other thread mentioned above to back up claims. this nd some members saying he responds with vulgar msgs, makes me think this guy is just a hot head on a short fuse. IMO he has "issues" dealing w/ ppl.
 
....took me a looooong time to read this but I'm glad I did. Josh offered a trade for one of my geckos and I was curious about the red in his reputation level.. so I came here. Although I need to consolidate my collection, I really like that gecko and do not feel comfortable sending him to Mr. Perkins. Thanks to all who participated in this thread.

Josh - I'm glad your getting your life back on track, but like I told a friend of mine who recently went through something similar, it will take time to gain peoples trust back again. Time and hard work. I wish you well.

Actually, you should be respectful of everyone until they give you a reason not to be such as being disrespectful themselves.

If we use your method, why should anyone give you any respect? :shrug01:

Someone can have the nicest looking, fat and healthy and best priced animals but if said person is an ass to people then you will have quite a few people who will not do business with them.
 
Ok well maybe i worded that wrong im a very professonal man untill someone disrespects me and their are many forms of disrespect and they come out in all ways on fauna.
NOTE i have many many people i deal with that have nothing to do with fauna i have a good reputation i only log into fauna to see if their is anything im interested in i dont even really post anything for sale here for all the reasons that are so obvious dont get me wrong i like fauna just not most of the members like the ones who dont even keep or sell reptiles but want to throw there 2 cents into everything.
Im a good man yes i have a bad temper im the nicest man in the world untill im given a reason not to be all that i blew up on there were good reasons im sure they dont state what they said to me to make me blow up they just want to make me look bad i have top notch reptiles at guanteed lowest prices not the going price like everyone else i make my own price and im doing very well.
Im sorry if people dont like me but i am who i am and im not changing.

Thanks :) He's given me awesome babies too, but my projects have gone another direction. I may just keep him as a pet if there arent any intrests in him. He's such a "people-gecko" lol. I wish they all had personlaities like him
