Frustrating Trade Process
Hi everyone! I recently joined this great forum and posted on the breeding section but thought I would introduce myself again. My name is Nima Zaer and I'm the owner of Blue Dragon Reptiles. I keep and breed GTPs and this will be my first year breeding BPs. I have a small collection of codom combos, but after getting my first clown male I'm hooked. So I decided to concentrate my breeding projects on producing clown combos. A couple of weeks ago I put most of my collection up for sale in order to get a head start on my new projects. A guy replied to my ad and offered a trade for some het clown babies he produced. After talking a few times and sending some pics we decided on a couple of trades. Last week we talked and he asked for more pics, which I sent right away. I also asked him to text or email me copies or pics of the paperwork for the hets I'm getting. After a week of his excuses I finally said to myself this isn't going to work for me. I would rather produce my own hets so I know exactly what I have. My male seems to be an awesome breeder and has locked with two females so far and more are in the works. I should also mention that I have a few het clowns with proper paperwork I've purchased from reputable breeders. Anyway thanks for listening and let me know what you would do in this situation.
