    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....

Ok,
So we didn't do business, but yesterday her pm'ed me about a adult male beardie. He offerd $100 shipped I said no because that would mean about $40and being that I paid $75 for him as a baby and him being proven it ws too low. I was only asking $150 shipped which I thought was pretty resonable.
Here our are PMs

Him: would you do 100 dollars shipped for theOrange/Sandfire x Citrus/orangegold Adult proven breeder

Me: Um...
I think thats a bit low, what is you zip let me see how shipping would be....

Him: well your price is a bit high for that kind of dragon. Ive seen females for that. and i think the males should be less. my zip code 92123. Thats how much im realling to spend with shipping for your dragon. if you change your mind let me know.

Me:I thought I was pretty resonable, Shipping is like $60 their is no way I would take 40 for him when he was a baby I paid $75

Him: theres nothing special about your male. so if you want t keep him cool. im sure im the only person who would of bought him. not many people want to buy something from a kid.

(this pissed me off)

Me:Look Asshole,
I have sold many dragons on this site and for you to insult me like that is uncalled for. I know he is nothing special, but guess what I am not into dragons for the money. So fuck off

Him: you the fucking ass hole trying to get 150 dollars for a dragon who nothing special in it. you need to take a chill pill. and you screw your mom mother fucker.

Me:Wow really mature, I guess we really know who the "kid" is. I am selling him for $150 because he is proven and is an adult, not a baby so if you do not want him and are going to act like his then do not pm me. Thank you

Everyone If I am a fault here please tell me. I am just selling my reptiles and enjoying this community. I feel insulted and I think keep your opinion to your self and do not email or pm if you are not truly intrested.

While the price you ask, and accept, is totally up to you...you might want to work on your interpersonal skills. Name calling and profanity from a seller is generally a losing combination.
 
this really wasn't a situation that required a thread...if everyone who had a conversation like this posted in the BOI there would be alot of nonsense posted here. I understand how you feel...and you are allowed to charge whatever price you want on any animals you sell...but please don't post a BOI thread every time someone insults you on your prices....or insults you in general I guess.

both parties spoke to each other in uncalled for ways....it should have just been dropped when the 2nd party decided not to buy your dragon....take it as a lesson learned...don't continue talking to someone once they indicate they don't wanna do business with you
 
You had no call to reply in such a vile fashion. You should have just deleted the message and moved on. Now you've made yourself look like a childish idiot.
 
Yea...you did kinda start the bad language by sending a reply that began with "look ---hole''

that is a part that you did wrong....don't let your emotions get the best of you next time, I'm sure your conversations will turn out better for you
