    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

mike stafani bad seller poor custemer service

Christ...Shut your trap already...
Mike's said you're getting a refund NUMEROUS TIMES.
A shipper is NOT responsible for what the courier does. No one can insure 100% delivery date or time...Or whether your courier hub will not drop and run. Mistakes happen with shipping that are not in control of either buyer or seller.
You can be sure that I personally will not be dealing with you in the future...You are a royal pain in the heiney.
 
Spelling is VITAL in order to prevent mistakes in communication when writing. The same goes for punctuation. Dangling participles, run-on sentences, incorrect comma placement, ALL of these can actually change the meaning of a sentence.

For example, "we have had problums with dhl leaving packages on the front steps with 3000 dollars worth of beardeds " coming right after saying the roaches were probably stolen by some highschool kids implies heavily that the beardies were stolen as well. If I wrote "The roaches were likely left on my doorstep, and the kids at the highschool may have stolen them. I have had problems with DHL leaving packages before, such as with a $3,000 shipment of beardeds" it would be *perfectly* reasonable to someone to assume that the beardeds had been stolen as well.

Without punctuation, people are forced to pull you paragraphs apart at places that seem likely to have been ends, but lo! this is not always the case. Type correctly. You're an adult. Write like it.
 
I have a toad? Sweet! *goes forth to look for her new amphibian*

I am amused that you use the shooting-oneself-in-the-foot image. The irony is priceless.

Dale,
Your true colors explained!
Thank you, I knew it wouldn't take long!
Shiari was trying to give you some tips on how to BETTER communicate with folks on the internet.
She was trying to help you, once again you :shootfoot !!

I can no longer swallow any more of my own blood from biting my proverbial tongue! I'm starting to feel ill. I own very few insectivorious critters, but I'm inclined to place a large order with the Stefani's....just 'cause!

After reading your first post here, it was quite literally too mentally taxing to even attempt disection in order to formulate a coherent response, so I am not the least bit surprised that there was a communication problem...not on both parts, but on your part...your intellectually challenged part at that...not on the part of the Stefani's.

And by the way, when someone says they will not do business with you, that's what we refer to as a "hypothetical", or a "planned course of action should the opportunity arise".

With regards to the delay in a refund, are you the kind of guy that mails payment on a bill the day before it's due, and then complains about the post office when it arrives late? After the way they've been treated here, I'm sure the Stefani's will not be mailing your refund "express"...it's bad enough they have to shell out the extra $$ for signature confirmation due to your actions thus far.

While you wait, might I suggest some type of educational reading on proper grammer, punctuation, spelling, and sentence structure...the local children's library perhaps? This may help you formulate your argument better next time!
 
wtf

once again more brown noses. do you really think i care if you order from mike you should b telling him that not me you must be trying to get a deal by swinging on his jock.whats funny i asked him to exsplain what he ment by true colors .and he can coment on what others say but cant coment on the isue at hand like when will a refund be isued .thats like the check is in the mail.and how someone spells isnt the point ya must be able to understand enuff to coment so let it be known mike if you dont plan to honor your word let it be known .it cost 6 dollars to get signature at post office you can take the six dollars out of my refund and then it still only takes 2 days to get here hell i would even take the roaches if sent another way .if you dont have the money starting to seem like the big stall to me ..seems like you want to drag this out and turn it into a pissing contest
 
Dale do us all a favor and look up the meaning of the word 'Idiot' I bet you find your picture right next to the definition.

The only person who came here for a Pissing contest is you Dale and you likely misspelled it.

Another thing change your user name it is the same as someone else's here who has been around longer than you have and seems to have a good reputation. No reason to tarnish his Rep just because you use the same name..

I really hope you get your money soon so we will no longer have to try and decode your writing.. Dang man many of us have trouble with spelling ETC but see that little icon down below called spell check ? try using it. Also try proof reading before hitting post reply!!! .. Randy
 
I'm convinced this Dale fella has to be related in some way to Bud Mierkey.

I asked him to explain what he meant by true colors and he can comment on what others say, but can't comment on the issue at hand, like when a refund will be isued. That's like, "the check is in the mail". And how someone spells isn't the point. Ya must be able to understand enough to comment, so let it be known, Mike, if you don't plan to honor your word...let it be known. It costs 6 dollars to get signature confirmation at the post office. You can take the six dollars out of my refund, and then it still only takes 2 days to get here. Hell, I would even take the roaches if sent another way if you don't have the money. Starting to seem like the big stall to me ..seems like you want to drag this out and turn it into a pissing contest.

once again more brown noses. do you really think i care if you order from mike

So you made this thread NOT to bring attention to Mike's poor customer service or curtail the next customer but because you wanted us to...ugh, I don't know, see how stupidly you handled the situation? Okay -- well done.
