    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 LST EXOTICS

Thank you everyone for your nice comments.

Quick update on Kathy's Shipping - My broker did screw up the address on the new BOL. I went down this morning to sign the new BOL. I will send Kathy the new BOL because I am not going to post it here as it now contains her home address and I will not publish her private info one here.

Let me also say, Kathy is new in the reptile world, we have been buying, breeding and selling snakes both when we had a all reptile store and via the internet for a while now. I have been on both sides and while this is frustrating and I never took my frustrations to a public venue I do understand a "newbie" being frustrated I hate the direction the whole thing took.

Kathy is getting addicted to cornsnakes and I am sure before long will have a ton of them just like we all do. She will most likely be on this board and others to buy and possibly sell, please take this thread as what it is, a new reptile owner wanting the best possible outcome for her new loved snake collection. I am sure as I have learned a lot from this Kathy has too. So if she contacts you to buy or to sell keep in mind that the LST / Kathy Young situation is just that, between us. Give her the benefit of the doubt because if she gets this wild over some cages you know those snakes are going to be fed and healthy!



Bill - Marie is a customer not my family or anything else. I told her it was none of her business as it was non of yours but you emailed her asking her about us so you drew her in, good luck with that. You two can deal with each other I have nothing to do with it. I did take screen captures of your BEWARE of me and my company messages you posted including all the liar and stuff like that you posted about me. Now you are on this board inviting everyone publicly to friend you on fACEBOOK so they can see the negative things you said about me and my company. That my friend is 100% DEFAMATION because we have had no business dealings. If the posts are not removed then I will just hand it over to my attorney and then you and him can deal with each other.

You posting today saying someone that is not me is posting about you because of something you said does not even belong on this board. Good luck with your snake adventures and the other builder you chose now leave me and my company alone as we have had nothing to do with you or your wife and we never will.
 
If you care to know, the only post I had on you was taken down yesterday sometime after you posted the pic not sure when but I did comment on the post that you "finally put up the pic and they were nice cages but I would take my buisness elsewhere" and then Marie chimed in. I had gotten quiet and was letting it all go, now you let it go. My facebook is blocked so no one that is not my friend can see any thing. now you let it go, please
 
I did get a message from Sean this morning informing me of his post here. I once again apologized to him, I admit if I made a mistake and I believe it was a big mistake me coming here that evening. I wish I could go back and undo it. I did ask the mods here and at RTB to remove my posts but thats not a standard thing they do so it didn't happen, the post at RTB got closed. I told Sean this as well.

As I told Sean if I ever want a match cage, I've screwed myself. Everything I said about him was not negative, I said he's very knowledgable about what he's doing, I liked his heat idea much better than the cages I was going to buy elsewhere, he was always nice to talk with on the phone and I got frustrated.

So, I guess this can be considered as a formal, public apology to Sean and I hope I have not done too much damage to his business. I should have kept my dealings with Sean, with Sean. Lesson learned on my part. I never put anything personally on my facebook, I commented to Bill on something he sent me, but that is gone. I have not removed anything on my FB and will not so if anyone cares to look, you are welcome to find me. Sean took down his post about white cages where we were all looking for pics of white, I'm assuming that is b/c he doesn't want to do white in the future which is unfortunate because he liked the white and many other people do.

I WILL come back here and post my cages, I will post picks when they are stacked and I will tell you how I like them. There was never any doubt in my mind that I would love them, and I'm still sure of that. I'm not going to experience the happiness I would have initially because of this mess I have created, I'll have to deal with that part.

Just FYI to anyone, the previous guy did give me a 3 week turnaround, so Sean has indeed done that, I guess I was just expecting for faster turnaround. And I didn't realize white was an issue when I first ordered, I did when I ordered the 2nd cage as he did tell me that white was only run on Friday. Initially I wasn't aware of that.
 
I will do white but the square edges are going to cost more in the future. White is ok I just have to do it after we clean everything because the first white we ever did had all black edges :)

As for screwing yourself, not at all. If you ever need anything to match those cages call me or email me. I have no problem making more for you. You will just have to mail me your computer and all phones when you send the payment and they will be returned with the cages LOL.

Call anytime, Kathy!
 
I had no idea square would be a problem. I like the looks of Marie's rounded, but I do agree that square looks more iike 1 large unit, but I really don't care.

I just want nice, safe cages for my babies.
 
I am here today to officially and openly apologize to Sean at LST Exotics. I received my cages on Monday Nov 14, which is almost a month to the day when I first paid.

I did jump the gun coming here, and I wish I could remove it all. I believe now that 1 month turnaround is great and Sean did what was needed to get me my cages. I was expecting them sooner based on our initial conversation but I didn't realize I was probably the first one who wanted white cages, thus some confusion on the lead time.

Here is a picture I took of the cages with the LED lights (I bought and installed) on and I'm very excited to get my snakes moved in. Thank you Sean and thank you for being kind even after my posts.

Kathy, Thanks for the chance to buy the cage from you that you had ordered from Sean. I have spoken to Sean and he said the cage will be ready the week of Feb.27.
