• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Sunbaked Serpents?????

Jared,

I am more than sure Shawn and his wife aren't trying to pull a fast one on you. Shawn is a stand-up guy and I am sure as soon as he and his wife are able they will have it all worked out for you.

****Sean's wife contacted me via email to let me know that Sean was still dealing with a very important family crisis. SO many people are positing attesting to Sean's great character and his honesty. He must be a very nice man and I am confident he will come through. I am VERY embarrassed that I assumed the worst and was getting pushy and rude. I apologize to his wife and family for this and wish them well. The issue they are dealing with is far mor improtant than any businees issue and they could use all of our prayers. I apologize once again to Sean, his family , and friends. ***********

I'm sorry it only took a few days for your recognition and respect of Shawn's situation to fade away. However, I am sure all of us, Shawn included, understand your frustration with the situation, but I think filing the complaints with Paypal was a bit much at this point.

Anyway, I hope everything works out okay and you can get it all straightened out. And I of course have best wishes for Shawn and his family.
 
Thank You Will Leary

Will was able to work this out for me very nicely. Unfortunately Sean & his wife did not know I had paid them again and his wife thought the refund had gone through. She is not used to working with his email or a paypal account. They have been out of town so they have not been able to check thier email and were unaware of this lingering issue that has now been totally resolved. I would like to thank Will Leary for his help with resolving this. I would like to add that no one should EVER have second thoughts about purchasing from Sunbaked Serpents. This was all an unfortunate misunderstanding with no negative intent by anyone involved. Sean Gray is a very trustworhty and conscientious man that is just going through a hard time. I would appreciate it if the site mediator could delete any of my posts that could have a negative effect on Sean's reputation. I have only positive fedback to any buyer about Sunbaked Serpents and I will not hesitate to buy from them in the future.

Jared Douglas
 
Jared,

I am very glad Will was able to help you work things out, and I'm glad to know you don't harbor any illwill towards Shawn over this situation.

I wish I had seen your post before my last one, but we must have been typing at the same time. :D My apologies for any insult if may have caused.
