    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....

Inquiry Joseph Ronda

Has anyone done any business with a "Joseph Ronda" of Poughkeepsie New York before?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, I have never heard of him, and while I haven't been in business for "25 years", I would be REALLY reluctant to do business with anyone who refused to provide an uptodate pic of the animal (I usually insist on a pick with a newspaper with the date displayed). Seems shifty to me...

Your pic request was certainly not unreasonable; however, when you bolded and italicized 'actual picture' I think that set him off. I'm in NY too, never heard of him..or Wesley Brown for that matter, but then again I haven't heard of most sellers until they show up here or KS. Btw, Wesley's comment about taking pics of monitors' next to a dollar bill as being hard seems to be a bit of an exaggeration.

I take back me statement about it seeming "shifty". He provided the requested pics and we spoke via PM. I think he is sincere.
