    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....

Bad Guy Mailibumiles (Miles Sundher) BAD BUSINESS ETHICS

High End Female Ambilobe

I just did a transaction with this guy this past Saturday (11/12/11) First of all I would like to warn everybody that this guy is a kid just a teenager not of legal age to be liable for much. Obviously the PayPal account tied to him has to be his parents. According to many people I've talked to he tends to just buy and resell. The Ambilobe I purchased was healthy but came with no proof of Bloodline since Miles aka "Malibumiles" did not breed her. I have yet to post a trading rating but thought I would try and help out by getting the warning out there. There are many great people here on Fauna that are responsible adults that breed and or collect and really care about the animals and transactions. So be warned that you will be dealing with a minor and everything will be at your own risk.
 
Nosy Be

I received a young Nosy Be male from "Malibumiles" on Friday 11/11. So far he seems fine. After reading this thread, I'm wondering if I should take him to the vet to have him checked out though.
 
Regardless who the animal came from a vet visit is always a good precautionary measure esp with chameleons. They are masters at hiding illness. At least bring ina fresh fecal and have a float and smear done to be sure no parasites are present.
 
I seen his current wanted chameleon ads and they prompted me to search his name here. I should have guess this would have been the results. Did he ever make things right, if not just another flipper to stay far away from.
 
I had (have) a few other questions...but I don't want to distract from the basic fact that Mailibumiles (Miles Sundher) sent those chameleons in that condition. Trevor's handling of certain aspects of this aren't really the issue (though it could be beneficial to HIM to consider some of the points that have and have not been made - nothing wrong with learning from our experiences).

To Miles: A live arrival guarantee is a standard....but so is the expectation that the animals will be outwardly healthy. If you cannot provide healthy animals - don't ship them. If you cannot recognize obvious issues - you should either not keep that species, or you should not include them in your sales until you learn. You dropped the ball on this one in a big way, and being new is not an acceptable excuse.

:iagree:

Maybe someone should tell his parents :yesnod:

Very sad for you Trevor. I don't know the first thing about chams but even I can tell from those pics that they were very sick. Should've never been sold.

Isn't there some sort of rule or anything that you have to be of legal age to sell on here? So sad to start out in this hobby as a flipper with no knowledge of the care these beautiful animals need nor the inclination to find out. If you have the Internet there is no reason to say I had no idea I was caring for this species wrong. Neglect plain and simple. Another one that could care less and someone to def avoid.

I agree, the live arrival guarantee is only good when you send out healthy animals! Hiding behind it just shows you only care about the money.

Hope you get your refund Trevor. Poor girls had to have suffered :(
