    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.

    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....

Actually, Jon only having one thread on here and that being labelled a "bad guy" thread isn't sitting well with me. :/

I purchased a male P. standingi from Jon a few weeks ago. He was prompt, courteous, professional, and even disclosed and warned me that the male I was purchasing had been part of a bonded pairing previously so may or may not accept a new mate.

Jon graciously accepted a payment plan and the whole transaction progressed quite smoothly.

I very promptly received a well packaged, gorgeous, well-fed, and healthy looking animal. He is still in quarantine so I do not yet know whether he'll take to either of the two females I have (certainly won't reflect on Jon if he doesn't ;) )- but either way, I'm very happy with him, and with Jon as a seller.

Thanks again, Jon.
 
I just got a pair of Pachydactylus scherzi and 3 unsexed Phelsuma sundbergii ladiguensis as part of his GGA sale, and I couldn't be happier! Jon was very prompt on responding to my emails, answered all my questions, and packaged the geckos beautifully. I will definitely be buying more animals from him in the future.
 
I have purchased from Jon a couple of time. He has taken the time to answer all of my questions promptly and completely. Not only does he have healthy geckos, he has some of the rarer animals around. I will not hesitate to order from him again in the future (probably near future!).
 
Jumping on board. I recieved 4 geckos from Jon recently and couldn't be happier! He was more than happy to answer all of my questions and giving me all the details I wanted. The geckos arrived well packed and healthy. I will recommend Jon to anyone looking for reptiles!

I just received a male Phelsuma modesta isakae from Jon, it arrived in perfect health and full grown, a stunning animal to be sure. Will definitely do business with Jon again, great communication and prompt delivery.
 
Jon sells quality geckos. I have bought numerous times from him. It costs $ but you get what you pay for! Enough of sickly imports that die within a few weeks. Kudos to Jon.
 
I just completed a transaction with Jon. It went very well. He gave me a great price on two geckos which fit perfectly into my breeding plans in the future. He held the geckos for over a month, as I finished paying them off (did a short payment plan) and the weather cooled on his side. The animals are top notch, and I would recommend him to anyone. I will be buying from him again, there's no doubt in my mind.
 
I also have done deals with Jon and they all went smooth. He always answered all my questions promptly and pleasant to talk with.
 
Just received a pair of Paroedura from Jon- animals look great, answered all my questions, got back to me promptly, transaction went smoothly, would gladly purchase again.
 
Quality

A large portion of my collection came from Jon. Quality animals from a quality breeder. Joe Hupp Australedonian Geckos
 
I also have heard almost nothing but good things about Jon(no seller ever has a 100 percent positive rating) and can attest that they are all true.

Having just ordered a G araneus pair from him, I am very satisfied with my purchase. In full disclosure, he was having cpu issues which then caused communication issues, but we were able to work thru it. He has great prices and quality animals.

Please understand Jon is the best of both worlds: ALOT of quality bred species with great prices but Jon is a busy guy so if he doesn't get back to you immediately, he's not purposefully ignoring you. Try again and you will not be sorry.
