    Not 100% true. If you actually use the local craigs list you can get some sweet things. I have bought many items from there just meet them in person but in a public place.

    I would never send money to some stranger. That would be just retarded.. :rolleyes:

    I have the #3 spot in Ralph Davis pied balles this year. I cant wait till they all hatch and we pick out our baby. :)
    Oh price.... 1800.00 Unless it is a "high white" then your paying a few more:gj:

    Blessed the all mighty $ :salute:

    ok after talking back and back i still feel weird mainly cause he wants to send money western union
    but this is what he said to try and make me trust him and what not cause he only wants half the money then when i get the snakes pay the other half which is weird also but heres what the last email said



    an alternative way that we can handle this is just for you to proof to me that i will get the money as soon as the snakes reach you. i mean i will be paying for the shipping of the snakes to you but you also have to proof to me that you are going to send me the money as soon as the snakes get there.

    this is how we will handle the transaction for full trust to be achieved. i do think that you are used to the western union post bank how it functions. what i will need you to do to proof to me that i will have the money is just to take my address to the western union, pay the money and keep the security secret questions and mtcn with you. i will now know that once the snakes get to you, you will send me the information that i will use in collecting the money from the western union store.

    so what i mean is that you only have to register the money under my address and keep the information, once i have a confirmation that money is sent to me although the money will not be given to me by the western union store as i do not have the information, i will pay for the shipping of the snakes myself and i will wait the information later when the snakes get to you.

    i am waiting right now for you to proceed.





    so tell me what you think...

    Honestly?

    I'd run far and run fast.

    Over here western union is famous as being the method of choice for all scammers.

    His gaurantee of you only sending half the money till you get the snakes is an excellent way for a scammer to get half your money for precisely hee haw.

    Maybe I'm just paranoid about these things but if I'm buying a high dollar morph I would want to be able to trust the seller completely in case problems arose further down the line.

    Ok things are not adding up.

    Western Union is the scammers choice these days. Is his address in some small town in russia by any chance? Why would he suggest only sending half the money, sending it all should be just as safe right? Also, Stolen pics is a sure sign of a scammer.

    if you get greedy and try to get a 900 pied you will get burned from this guy.

    Time to move on and forget about him.

    If you are not set on actually seeing the snake in person which you obviously are not why wouldnt you buy your snake from one of the many reputable breeders here on the site? You have the best breeders in the country right here bro. You will know you are getting a quality healthy snake with one of these breeders, not so with this guy youre talking with.

    I wouldnt go to Walmart to buy a nice watch if you get my drift.

    Good luck regardless.

    nah i figured it was a scam im just beating him around the bush the whole thing with the question was weird cause i didn't know that never used WU i mean if he wasn't going to send the snake then why say that unless he has some one that works there idk. i don't even have 100 bucks to my name so i wasn't going to get it but figured i would share the trip with ya lol i told him before i did that i wanted him to send me a free snake lol just to see what he does i mean if he sends me a free snake he said after this he would pay the shipping and i pay him back right lol hahaha
