    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....

Bad Guy Michael Lawton

KNOBTAIL, you make some very good points! I did not think about the consequences of using Friends and Family for deposits but PayPal might interpret that as avoiding the 3% fees like you stated. Someting to really think about. After the holidays I am doing research on some of the other services like Square and Google Pay. Thanks again for the help and advice :)!
 
I woke up Christmas morning to have Michael Lawton calling me an A**HAT on my own business Facebook page. He commnented multiple times on my page. To me, this is the ultimate low, commenting directly on my business page but I wouldn't expect anything less from this guy. I did not know you could ban someone from your page but I learned you can and he is now banned from commmentng on my business page. He also messaged me and stated he dropped the PayPal case and he wanted his refund immediately. I checked and indeed he dropped the case. Unlike, Michael Lawton, I do what I am going to say and I will refund his $70 as I said on the 2nd of January (as long as the bank is open, might be a holday).

Think taking the high road, refunding, and wiping your hands of this entire situation is your best bet.

Guess he's not laughing anymore.
 
Just saw this and had to Chime in. He has put money down on a pair of Savannah over a month ago and has done the same thing to me. I don't understand putting money down to buy something if you can't afford to pay for them. I've got excuses from him also. It's just strange he's putting deposits down on animals all over the place. If he can't afford to pay for them then I bet he won't be able to care for them. I'm gonna just refund him back his money. It's not worth the aggravation. You know you try to help someone out and it comes back to bite you in the butt.
 
Keven2, thanks for you comment; sharing your experience should help poeple in the decision to deal with him. I am sorry you missed out on potentially selling your pair of Savannahs to a good customer instead of a flipper.
 
The funny thing is that I refunded him his money and he called me a prick lol. Most people wouldn't have gave him back his money and sold the animals to someone else. I really don't understand this guy at all! Trust me when I say THIS GUY IS A HEADACHE DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS GUY!
