• 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....

I recently purchased an animal from Kristin Booker of Valley Herpetoculture and i was so impressed with the superior quality of her animals, meticulous record keeping, and excellent customer service. From the pre-sale to post-sale stages of the transaction, she was prompt, thorough, and courteous in her responses to my inquiries. She was honest in representing the animal's lineage, background, and genetics. The pictures of the animal were accurate and untouched. As a matter of fact, the animal looks even better in person.

The animal arrived in good health and as previously stated, it looks even better in person. I can't emphasize enough how important that is because there's nothing worse than being disappointed when you receive the animal because the seller's pic was touched up and embellished. The box was packaged perfectly and included a full feeding/tracking sheet for the animal since its birth. This was a nice added bonus that indicates how meticulously she cares for and keeps track of her animals.

In addition to her demonstrated professionalism, she also expressed a genuine interest in getting to know her customers by asking about my reptile background and then we shared a bit about our interests and experiences. I felt comfortable about asking her questions without feeling like i was being a pest.

Overall, i am very satisfied with the transaction and I hope to do business with her in the future. I would highly recommend Kristin to anyone who may be contemplating a transaction with her. You can do it in full confidence and you will not be disappointed!
