    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.

    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....

Good Guy Reptiles Plus

So this is the first time Victors partner chimes into one of these threads and that's all you have to say then huh? Never came to his defense before or even to the defense of your own "co-owned" company...interesting... You just let Victor sink it so you can come on with a new screen name and sell for him without using the company name to get the sales. At least people now know that your name is apart of a shady business as well. I thank the poster who outed you for that :)
The reason he did not say any thing to you because your a pycho! and he does not have time to get into it with you! thats my job! for the record the reason why i did not work things out with you in the past. and i work things out with other customers is point blank you bad customer! i dont care how much money you have or if your bought all the animals i have my shop! i would never sell to you! no money in the world is worth dealing with you! and if you ever where to walk into my store. i would call the police on you and have you escorted out of my store. have good day pycho!
 
Tell that to someone that has not dealt with you before. But don't worry because you will never ship to me again because I will never buy from you again. Besides why would I lie to everyone. I have no reason to. I don't breed and I don't sell. The only reason I even said anything is that I have dealt with you before and was unhappy. You knew I was unhappy when I called you. I'm not gonna argue about this. It doesn't matter to me what you think. All I did was give my experience. If someone else is happy with your service they are free to post that. For your sake I hope you take what is being said and try to change. It will only hurt you if you don't work on making the customers happy and selling healthy animals. If you are charging for quality shipping then use quality shipping. I don't think that people would complain about a little more cost to have the animals shipped correctly with the proper materials. Again this is just my oppinion.

call me crazy but i know for a fact i never sold to you! one i never sold a regular burmese python and two i always tell my customers when an animals is W.C or captive born. so like i sayed you are barking up the wrong tree!
 
I bought a Burmese Python and a Ball Python from reptiles plus. The Ball was supposed to be a captive born baby but was an adult WC. Both snakes died within a week of getting. I lived in Seattle at the time and they were shipped in the cold. I recieved them from DHL in a very small box. They were packed into the box in two bags. There was no heat packs and no padding. The box was not marked live shipment either. When I called them I was told that it was not cold enough to require heat packs. They replace the baby burm but it was sick and very unsettled. It would strike at anything including the glass multiple times. It finally died also from injurys from striking the glass and the upper resp. infection that it had. The vet tried to help but was not able to help. I never tried to get another snake from them and never will buy from them again. It actually made me very reluctant to buy on line again.

I dontknow what you are talking about! you must have me mistaken for someone else. first of i dont and never did use DHL to ship any animals!?! good day

So funny, but every time you come on here and type something up in response to someone you make yourself look phycho, no one else! lol! So since you still want to say this was my fault what happened between us I will go ahead and link this thread with our dealings so people make sure not to miss it and can see who the pycho was. :iagree:

Also anyone looking to purchase from Reptiles Plus, please be sure to check out ALL of Victors posts and decide if you would REALLY want to deal with a business person who treats his customers (or ANYONE for that matter) the way he has on this forum. I mean really Vick, if your business has not been hurt at all by your poor business ethics why have you "business partner" come on here and post ads for you NOT using the company name??? Sounds like business connected to your name is thriving huh Victor....?:thumbsup::shootfoot
 
I do have reciepts and a couple photos of the packaging but I just recently moved from Seattle Washington to Huntsville, Alabama so I will have to dig them up. I am working on finishing my office so I can post them once they are unpacked. The office is always the last thing finished. Well I guess really the garage is. And as for Victor, if I were you I would use what people are saying and try to make your rep better not just argue and call everyone liars. If you spent half the time making your buisness and customer service better as you do on here calling people liars you would have a great smooth running buisness. I feel sometimes people are so busy tring to deny what has happened when it would just be better to correct the problems and make the customer happy. After all the first rule in business is the customer is always right. Without them you have no business.

Victor, While I appreciate the occasional luv note from girls...I don't think you're my type, I just don't go for angry, aggressive, hatemongers...Let's keep it public shall we...closed doors and all.
 
Oh believe me Victor I have moved on to REPUTABLE reptile breeders who actually KNOW THE DIFFERENCE between a flap jack and a mt meru, for example lol!:rofl::rofl: Oh and they also don't try to pawn another spieces off as the one I order. ALL of them have done a GREAT job of itentification unlike you. Oh and have NEVER tried to STEAL MY MONEY the way you did. So you keep telling yourself that you are full of knowledge when our dealing clearly showed you are not. All our emails have been posted for everyone on here to read that CLEARLY shows you were at fault and shows what kind of SHADY business man you are. I also believe all the other info just adds to the points you have racked up for yourself. The way you have shipped things, the way you misidentify things you have sold AND posted on your own website, and the way you treat people. Yes you may be still selling your animals(or having your partner gamergod82, Kenneth Dunn selling for you), but I know your reputation has in fact driven plenty of it away. Dont come on here saying he has a right to sell his own animals when his myspace page CLEARLY STATES HE IS CO-OWNER OF REPTILES PLUS. How convenient for you that the day you claim to be walking away from fauna which was on 4-28, that VERY SAME DAY Kenneth (gamergod82) comes on posting classifieds without your reptiles plus name connected to it when he is "co-owner" of it. You are not fooling anyone here.
Well, I believe enough has been said and people on here will come to there own decisions about you. ;) Who knows, maybe Kenneth will bring busines back to you if he takes charge of it. Perhaps he has the business ethics you lack:yesnod:

Vick,
Can you please let me know when you're going to ship my tortoise so I can be sure to be here? I'd assume it's not going to be until next tuesday, the 6th due to the holidays. Just let me know and what carrier you're using, too.
Thanks!
Cindy
PS. I hope you got my corrected shipping address to the memphis zoo. If not, let me know so I can resend it.

Red Foot Tortoise Recieved!‏
From: Cindy Karr ([email protected])
Sent: Fri 1/09/09 1:27 PM
To: [email protected]

Victor,

I recieved my tortoise yesterday afternoon and she is beautiful. She "appears" healthy and is even larger than I was expecing! However there's a problem I wanted to discuss with you.

On fecal examination, she appears to be infected with a parasite (an intestinal worm) called proatractis. It is a common roundworm (related to a pinworm) and I should be able to treat her with fenbedazole (panacur/safegard) and I am hoping it's successful.

My concern is #1: that you told me she was captive born. If this is true I would recommend deworming your entire tortoise population.
My second concern is that obviously this tortoise is older so we don't know how long she has had this infection. This parasite embeds itself deeply into the intestinal lining, can cause necrosis (deadening), roughening, and thickening of the colon. So there's no way to tell how much damage is done already. There have definitely been deaths from it, which is why I am alerting you. From the studies I've read, it is very hard to get rid of so if you aren't already, I would recommend a deworming program (panacur) for all the tortoises you have in your retail store. I would be more than happy to give you dosing information if you need any help. I'm a licensed veterinary medical technician at the zoo here, so i can get doses for just about anything you need. The dewormer that I'm going to use can be obtained over the counter so you should be able to get it pretty easily and you can either put it in food (i use babyfood) or a feeding needle (stomach tube). I really like the tortoise you sent me, so I'm not requesting any action as far as the business deal end of it. I'm just genuinely concerned about your other tortosies, and of course, the health of mine. Parasites can be a really serious health issue, so I try to stay on top of it with all my tortoises (routine fecals and deworming). All I ask is that IF things go downhill with her health and she dies within a reasonable amount of time (like a week or 2) I would like her replaced with another. But, I'm experienced with this kind of thing so I do not forsee any of that. I will definitely stay in touch though if something does go terribly wrong. I will let you know. Please don't hesistate to call or email me if you need help treating your others or obtaining the right medication for them.
Thanks,
Cindy Karr
PS. If you'd like more information about this parasite you can search for cosmocercoidea, nematodes, proatractis, or atracidae. Those are all families of the species.

NO REPLY! Then I found the BOI and all these threads I should've looked for BEFORE my purchase!
