Agamid Reptile Supplies closed

not going to go into it, seems like "that really nice post was deleted" with my side of the story (not really happy about the deletion rather not have my name made of mud) anyway just letting everyone know that www.agamidreptiles.com is now closed...

thanks too those who have supported me and have been happy with my servises for those people I will still help out, and thanks too those that made this decision easier to make.

Funny, I rather thought that post was pretty glowing for you, seems most everyone except the original poster leapt in to your defence with wonderful posts about how good your service was and how happy they were.

You have a lot of fans out there.

Get well soon.

I agree I did thank them for that and I appreciated all the emails that have been sent to me, but the thread was deleted. John wasn’t the soul person for my decision, I have 3 other people that owe me over $2500 that’s why I asked John to pay upfront, I know I can come up with the goods, just very bad timing. And 4 out 5 customers are really hard to deal with and I created the business coz I was sick of seeing people being ripped off by petshops. Just had enough and this year hasn’t been the best for me, so time to take a break.. I am willing to help those who ask for it with advice and I do have a lot of friends in the herp world, but I am going back to just breeding reptiles quietly, it’s a pity that a lot of herpers a pricks and if you get offended by that there must be a reason…

ha, dont go doing that because of one person. all the rest are realy happy with you. dont let one person and a couse of bad events set u back. stuff him and his un-understanding ways. Thow i have had much do do with you, i have found you very helpful.
now for the leg, when i broke my leg (in 6 places) they put me in a leg brace so i could take it off and shower. when you see your doctor ask for that. now one plasters anymore

all the best

Are you kidding ???? I thought most guys would want leg plaster so they get to have sponge baths from cute nurses.

Hi Marc.......I want to let you know how much you helped me out with getting some gippsland water dragons for my friend in Cairns. I found you nothing but polite, professional and decent!!!
You never know....could be getting more reptiles off you in the future!!!
Take care and the best of luck to you....and your leg!!

Fay

I thought that "bad thread" was a disgrace. I leapt to your defence as did all other members of this site except for the person who started it. It is a shame that you have had to close shop. Good luck with your breeding. It is good to see you will still be a member of this site.

Sorry to hear about that Marc - especially considering your circumstances, I would have thought that the customers could be a 'touch' more understanding??
Also, that's sad to hear that you have had so many bad clients - animals are MUCH nicer
Good luck with everything, and you'll be hearing from me in the future no doubt!! Oh - and I hope your ankle gets better!!
