    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 have recently purchased twice from the Bean Farm.  I must say in this competitive market of reptile products service is what counts.  You can get the same products from a hundred different suppliers with price varying but service is what keeps them coming back.  Both times of ordering from the Bean Farm I was of course happy with the products, and they were shipped out immediatly after my order was put in.  Its nice to have a happy "apreciative of your business" sounding voice on the other side of the phone when ordering anything.  Thanks Bean Farm!

I agree with you, Michael. The Bean Farm is top notch when it comes to customer service. I haveordered from them in the past and was completely satisfied.  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
 
Giovanni and Paula (a/k/a The Bean Farmers) genuinely care about their customers and they genuinely care about herps.  They attend not only "sales" and "shows" but scientific meetings to learn about herps (including IHS).  They try out all potential products before including them in their catalog and if they're crap they just won't sell them no matter how high the profit margin.  This means they can stand behind the products they do sell 100%.  The Bean Farm is one of the originals in the herp husbandry products business and I will continue to buy from and support them.
 
I first purchased some products from them about 8 years ago.  Since then I have purchased from them many more times and I have never been less then 100% satisfied.  Very good people.

Good job, Bean Farm.  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
 
I have done herp shows with my booth next to giovanni, and Paula from the bean farm. And I must say they are two of the nicest people. And they are the best in the buisness for herp supplies. They know what is best for your herps, and they sell what is best!

I highly recccomend them!!!

I've bought herps and supplies from the Bean Farm, and won't go anywhere else! Both Giovanni and Paula have been great help to me-I send anyone local to them for supplies.

We've purchased quite a bit of goods from the Bean Farm, and couldn't be happier with them. Fast shipping, perfect packaging, and a very easy to use web site.

Highly recommended...
 
Giovanni and Paula are he best. When it comes to helping people out they are always there. The customer service in person, on the phone, or on the internet is the best I have ever had. Also they always ship when they say they will.
 
Giovanni Very Helpful

Giovanni has also been most kind and helpful with us. We appreciate his help and expertise.
 
Adding another $.02

The Bean Farm consistently provides exceptional service and always delivers when promised.

They are awesome....

They are simply the best there is when it comes to supplies. I have been fortunate enough to talk to them at shows for years and they are the nicest and most helpful supply dealers you will ever come across.

I dunno about these guys... I keep e-mailing them to see if they have magic beans available but I never get a response from them. Doesn't sound like a very reputable place to buy beans from... especially magic ones.

On a serious note, Giovanni and Paula have got to be two of the most honest people in the business. They always go out of their way to help you. I've ordered tons of supplies from them. I've picked them up, and had them shipped to me at all the different places I've lived and it's always here prompt and in very good condition. Definitely two good people who sell good products because they test every item out on their own herps before selling it.
 
Just recvd another shipment from the bean farm and everything was perfect. Keep up the good work guys...

BeanFarm IS top-notch

I've been dealing with the BeanFarm for my supplies and heat tape for almost a year. I go through 100' foot rolls of heat tape about every 6-8 weeks so I've had my share of dealing with them. I tried the others and they were nothing in comparison. Their prices are as good if not better than the competition and Paula and Giovanni are SUPER great people to work with.

This past week I received a shipment from them too. It was a little delayed but they explained that over an e-mail. I will buy from them again.

Kindly.
 
I placed and received my first order from Paula and must say I am impressed. Excellent customer service, great product quality, all in all a perfect transaction. I will definitely be purchasing more products from them.
