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....

Communication could have been a little better but all in all a good transaction. Got a good deal on an adult lavender corn male. Good guy!
I've known Shawn for roughly five years now and have had a few transactions with him along with a bunch of correspondence, everything has always gone very smoothly and animals arrived well packed, on time and exactly as described. Very good guy in my opinion.

I just completed a deal with Shawn. He paid when he said he would (unusual in this hobby) and was very good with communications - especially since there were flight delays due to bad weather. Great guy!

Hi,
I'm always looking for normal females! I'm interested in the 3 that you have listed. What exactly do you mean by them being trouble feeders? For some people that means live only, or only in the dark, or for some it's only a live gerbil under a blue moon in the snow when the sun is aligned with Jupiter.. LOL
Thanks!
Shadera

its hard to type it all out lol why dont you give me a call 610-208-0247
im home now
---------------
did you get my PM response?

Re: BPs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, I did. If I were to purchase those animals, I'd much prefer to have the reason they're not feeding in writing, you know? But if you don't want to get into it that's okay.

its alot to type it would be easier to explain over the phone , just give me a call. im not faunas #1 scumbag or anything if i sell something and i say i stand behind it or not i do what i say
--------------------
ok since i havent heard a call from you or even a response i wont waste any more time on this .
i have an impecable reputation i dont screw people over , hell i even find stolen snakes for people if i can . the fact that you would say to me you need email proof is actually an insult to me . i would not have thought that would have come from you . but hey no skin off my nose . im not wasting time to type out a paragraph for someone to tell me they not interested . everyone whos been asking about them have called me without a problem . if you would like info on them your welcome to call me .
thanks for your interest
Shawn

Wow, I never expected an attack for wanting something in writing. People with nothing to hide have no issue writing. I think I'll just be moving along.
Shadera
--------------------
an attack ? i havent attacked anyone , i dont have a dam thing to hide ..you cant take a minute to call me since what i have to say about them is way to much to waste time typing, just for you to say no thanks .. id rather tell you over phone and let you make a decision at that point .. theres no guarantee on those 2 picky/trouble eaters other then they arrive alive . the smaller female would be guaranteed what i say she is . and by you making the statement you want it in writting so you have some kind of proof instead of taking a minute just to call quick is an insult to me . my reputation stands on its own i dont hide anything . if you had called me and wernt so anal about it you prolly would have gotten them at a cheaper price if you wanted them cause i need the space and want to get them gone . see im the type of person i like to speak to people face to face or in person to discuss things and then if a sale is made then i would write whatever was needed for the person buying my animals . and you might have found that out if you had just made a simple call .. so yes please as you stated in email

your welcome to do just that .

I never asked for a guarantee on anything and didn't plan to, only wanted the information in writing as to why these two females were "problem feeders". Good guy rating or not, I get all that information in writing on a problem feeder - and I have a few of those. Not just for my own peace of mind, but so that I can go back and refer to it later if there's a problem with getting the animal to feed and I need to re-read what the 'trigger' to get them to feed is. After my PM telling him that if he didn't want to write it out that was okay, I pretty much considered that the end of it.
There are too many sellers out there that are respectful to do business with someone like this. No thanks.

Im perfectly Respectable .. someone like what ?
you couldnt make a simple phone call first to get the info you needed and then deal with the rest of the details if you decided to buy them ?
i have typed the details for those females to many times to different people but they weren't what people were looking for so they didnt sell ..
so now i tell anyone interested in them that want info to call me and ill explain over phone (less time to talk then to type ) and they do with no problem, your the only person with an issue about it . why is that ?
I like to speak to people on phone in person verses always speaking in emails . more personable & friendly over the phone ..
and like i stated had you called me any details you needed on them in writting , if you were going to buy them could have been done at a later time for your reference as you call it ..

and i think its funny as well that now your trying to bad mouth me on BOI now because you couldnt get what you wanted ,the way you wanted it ,at the time you wanted it , but you would have gotten everything you needed in the end .. this isn't Burger King ..
I always bendover backwards the best i can for my customers that purchase from me or that plan on purchasing from me , but i guess you cant please everyone all the time ..
so be it .
