Not letting me post this picture for some reason emails to come .... waste half my day on this BS

Posted 12/19/2024.
=====================
I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?
So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.
But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.
Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.
I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.
=====================
Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.
And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

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.

It’s tough to tell by looking at chevrons. Temps can effect the chevron pattern. I’m focusing on the pattern of the left rear leg. Based upon this, I think you did in fact receive the correct iguana. It’s a nice looking Lewisi. Cyclura can be flighty when they’re this young but, with a little work, it’ll settle down.

If my point hasn’t been made please feel free to advice me how to do so haha... as I stated before in tyjohn for sale aid I’m over and done dealing with this it’s been a month with no resolve. Plain and simple I don’t trust this guy to send back the iggy while he hold my 800$. (I sent him 900$ without insurance or an animal why can’t he have the same “TRUST” I had to install in him when I paid ????
Last time we spoke he said not to ship because it was too cold and Christmas delay.
I take it as a loss. I’ll either sell him to a friend for the $$money I lost or if ty refunds me the 800$ plus shipping since this is not my fault why should I lose money on a scam? Then I’ll return the lizard.
I don’t negotiate with scammers hahah that was a joke I’m open to return if it doesn’t leave my with no money and no lizard =====no insurance = I’m screwed

I think you got the Lewisi that you paid for. Not sure why you feel that you deserve a refund.

Tried buying a cooper male from him last year and he sold after I already paid and tried keeping the money from PayPal... luckily I did invoice with him then and was able to FIght it through PayPal and get the money back
* he even tried submitting a fake shipping invoice
* I will get PayPal to send me something on this since it was last year and post the PayPal case also

For some reason I can’t post any more pictures ( I have the emails from 2016 when I tried buying this cooper male from him) again probably my fault for dealing with him again but I’m a forgiving person

This guy keep lying about everything. I never tell him this iguana was tamed, i already posted the pictures when i said the iguana is not tamed .
We are dealing publicly here so if you claim that i lied to you that this iguana was tamed than please post picture as evidence.
Second we never had any agreement that i refund you in full before you shipping the animal back. There is no breeder or seller would do that. And again you are more than welcome to post picture as evidence for what you said.

Yes you did ?! When I first commented on you for sale add, “saying the animal I received was different” you emailed me and that was our agreement... then I deleted the posts ( so you can resell the lewisi) and you freaked out saying I could “delete post” so therefore you couldn’t trust me... I will indeed post the email screenshots AS soon as I’m able to upload pictures again. Like I said for some reason I can’t. I tried uploading the Side By side picture of my 2016 female and your 2016 male to show how small he is and Compare The size to the PICTURE of the lewisi you posted for sale.
Don’t worry TY I’m not going anywhere! By end of day people will see you not only tried pulling a fast one on me in 2016 with the cooper male and keeping my 800$ or 700$ I forget, and to your credit ( We couldn’t get on the same page for shipping cus one day I’d be gone and the next you’d be gone but you then ignored me for several days and only to reply the animal was NOW sold and. You wouldn’t be refunding my Money) I then had to open a PayPal case and try to get my money back... You then hahahah a provided PayPal with a bogus shipping invoice trying to show you had shipped me the Cooper male.
( I obviously know now that I should have never delt with you again) that’s why
I reiterate to everyone here that this is my own fault!
* My reason for bringing all this to light is because I don’t want anyone else to get scammed by you! I’ve bought several high percentage lewisi this year alone and I could care less about the MONEY ppl!!!! It’s the fact this TYJOHN has. Got one over on me Twice now (excuse me tried)
So to all you fauna users who want to side with him and tell him he’s done the right thing blah blah blahsy blah BEfORe hearing my side and seeing my eveidice... well you’re just as ignorant as myself haha it’s a new age people and there are dishonest people out there.

From 2/4/2016 first time talking to ty about buying cooper male to 2/28/2016 not hearing a word for weeks ( have to find the email where he states the lewisi cooper male is Now SOLD and he won’t be refunding me) mind I already paid BUT luckily got him to send PayPal invoice first So PayPal sided with me a month later and I got my money back I full!!!!
A year goes by and I decided to deal with tyjohn again because all you lewisi lovers know. It’s not often a nice year old male or female shows up for sale... I let bygones be GONE and tried making this anders deal work. Shouldn’t have felt with him without invoice my fault .

From the cooper deal. My last picture I say didn’t hear back for weeks and it shows him write on the 28th so looks like my story doesn’t match up. The 29th he got ahold of me I believe and told me the iggy was now sold. Then I started my PayPal process
Now i will post more emails of the current ANDERS deal... if those pictures aren’t evidence enough

“You think I got the lewisi I paid for?”
Explain how I got what I paid for? I believe you wrote this on the for sale add but under a different user name... so please explain how my pictures Show this is he same animal. I’ve showed others and they agree it’s not the same... SIZE and Chevrons/ bands etc don’t change over night . My 2016 female has had the same chevrons pattern since I got her from pat brown at 2 months old.
Reptilefunction has very good literature on lewisi Renita Carlson is very smart when it comes to lewisi she wieghs and measures all her babies from birth until the day they are sold. I bought from here in 2013 or 2014 baby theta I believe. And I guarantee she’d tell you the same thing.

I could care less about getting my money back now AS I’ve stated week ago on tyjohn for sale add. He did refund me 100$ but that was after we agreed on full refund (emails screenshots to come) I just want people to be weary of this guy. Yes, I’m pissed I didn’t get the animal pictured. I don’t care if it’s a decent looking lewisi! I can get higher quality from numerous sellers... for the same price!! That’s why I’m pissed! The lewisi tyjohn has picture is worth 800-900$ that’s a good looking lewisi. The guy I got sent is decent but nothing special. I’m going for QUALITY in my animals for future babies NOT quantity so there is my problem.

Now Kameron White is trying to distract everybody with ours previous deal which have nothing to do with this case.
This is the only time i explain this case as i do not think it necessary for this BOIS.
one year a go , he bought 1 cyclura from me. I told him i need to rehome that one quick as i was moving. The deal was agreeded, but than he sent me multiple excuse that he couldn't receive the iguana yet. I tried to work with him as much as i can , but as i am moving so i have to sell the iguana to different people. His story and pictures already showed it i asked him can i ship the animal out on 19th but i have to let the igu go on 29th. i was really in rush tried to rehome the igu and i told him already, and it's not my fault that he was ready to receive it.
And he sent me another email said i tried to hold his payment the next day. Sorry but 1 day for me to arrange my bank for the refund was not " trying to keep your money at all"
At this point he already dispute the money from paypal, so i just let paypal do their job and sent the refund back to him.
One more think i want to say is if you think i did anything wrong, why would you contact me again and try to buy another igu ? isn't it too simple ?
