Look. To be honest, Avi, you seem like a good businessman. You're proving extremely tenacious at least, considering the EPIC backlash from the community the site is apparently trying to cater to. I'm kind of sorry that you got involved in a business venture with this dude. You probably could have been really successful doing something else. Hopefully this doesn't haunt you.

Anyway, I don't doubt they're going to make money at this whether we like it or not, probably from people who aren't involved in forums, like kids. People who don't know any better.

But I still feel it's a slimey way to make money. I don't think live animals should be used in this way and I especially don't think this is going to reflect well on the reptile industry. We already have a pretty crappy public image. People don't like the fact that we even ship animals in packages. Now it's going to look like we condone auctioning them off like electronics. So nice job, guys. Way to contribute something positive to the industry. Thanks.
