    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'd just like to say thanks to Brandon for answering all of my questions and being so helpful and flexible. The shipping was perfect and I have bought many reptiles within the last few years, but this one was packaged the best during these cold months. Don't hesitate to buy from him. He is a really nice person. Thank you so much Brandon.
 
The Mourning Gecko purchase from True Blood Morelia

You guys got it all wrong. Mourning gecko is a type of gecko. Brandon was very helpful. Don't hesitate to buy from him.
 
Yeah Brandon was very helpful. I am only 13 and he gave me exactly what I wanted. Thanks again Brandon!

From your profile:
"K thanks Robert im only 14 im going to an expo tomorrow..." (2/13/15)

From an ad:
"Hi I already got one im only 12 so chill sushi sucking freak." (2/21/15)

Good job to the seller. Glad you got your geckos finally Jason. A helpful hint moving forward:
1. Don't share your age
2. If you are going to share your age, do get caught lying about it OR using it as an excuse. For all we know your are 35yr old woman. Enjoy your gecko.

I'll add one more. Don't bump over a dozen old ads in the gecko classifieds to ask if they still have the mourning geckos they were offering for sale 2 years ago. The private messaging feature is the way to go if you want to contact someone about their animals. Many people won't notice a comment on their ad once it's posted, but it's hard to miss it when you have a private message while you're logged in.
 
LOL! (Although I shouldn't be). I too am glad you received the mourning geckos you searched so hard for, and were treated well in the process. Happy to have another young gecko enthusiast out there. L. lugubris are wonderful animals. No one's attacking you; it's just this industry relies greatly on the basis of everyone being forthright and providing accurate information. Reputations can be ruined by a shred of misleading or deceptive information. You're okay though! Mr. Walker is very right and put it quite kindly. It's no fun being called out though huh? I'm not trying to grill you either, I just want the best for you and all of us here, and since you have an affinity for Mourning Geckos, I have an affinity for you :) Greetings, have fun, take good care of your little girl and before you know it you will have an awesome colony clones. Once again, glad to have you on our team!
