• 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....

Not trying to start a bad guy thread.....just wanting to know if anyone knows of this guys whereabouts or if something has happened to him this past week. I contacted him in reference to a leopard gecko he had advertised on kingsnake for sale, paid for it via paypal, and he was suppose to have sent it out this past Tuesday. He said he would send me a tracking number, and I have not heard a word back from him since. He has not answered any of my emails, and I am just wondering where my animal has gotten to. Any help would be appreciated. The ads on kingsnake were quickly removed since I paid for the gecko, but I do have all of the emails between us saved, as well as my paypal receipt. These are attached.

Bill for Hypo Tangerine Female

this is the email sent to me from him on Dec. 17
Hi Beth,
I will ship her out this upcoming Tuesday. I will definitely ship her out with a heat pack and a double box.
many thanks,
John
another on the 21...
Hi Beth,
The money just cleared out of the paypal account so I will definitely ship her out tomorrow. I just purchased the boxes today. I will e-mail you again tomorrow with the tracking number for her.
Many thanks,
John

and the very last time I have heard a word from him is this one on the 22nd.
Hi Beth,
I'm very sorry but can you send me your shipping address again? I tried to get out of work early today but I was unable before the Post Office closed. I already took off tomorrow to make sure that I have the time to ship her out. I am extremely sorry for my delay in shipping her.
Many thanks,
John

Thanks in advance, and Merry Christmas!

Im curious why monies were converted from Canadian to US? He hasn't posted an ad since 12-12 so maybe his email is down. The phone number provided to Paypal is a Sprint cell phone in Emillstone, NJ. Did you try calling it? If he doesn't ship within 10 days Paypal will get your money back if the account still has that amount in it.
 
Hello

A while back I done a transaction with him on a Cawley Male Bearded Dragon. He shipped it in a timely manner, and we had a very smooth transaction. He seems like a very good person and I hope you get what you paid for. I hope this helps you out a little and puts your mind at ease. I am just posting my own personal experience with him. Thank you and I wish everyone a Happy Holiday.
 
Thanks shannon. I have no doubt that John is a good guy. I was just wondering if anyone else was having problems getting ahold of him for any reason, or were waiting for animals to be sent out. If there is an email problem, it would be good to know. I do not have a phone number to contact John or I would have done so rather than waiting for email.
Rainbowboa, I am paying with Canadian funds via credit card because the gecko is a gift. Why does that matter? He has received the payment, and has acknowledged that. The gecko was not sent when it was suppose to be, and is the only reason I am here asking.
 
Hi

I will try to see if we still have the box we got our male in and see if there is another number where he can be contacted through. I know we personally have been having a bad time with our emails getting to the people 2 days later, but that is on yahoo so I am not sure if hes having problems or not... Thank you
 
Thanks Shannon. I know that there has been alot of storms in that part of the country so you may be right about the email.
