Western Union + Africa = Scam
Rick
the only recourse you really have is to fly to africa and go steven segal on him.
on another note even if he does have it you dont want it for a few reasons:
1 it might not breed maybe never.
2 he cant just send it to you there is the dept. of natural resources, and exporter lic. maybe and also importation papers to do
3 it would probally be confiscated over there because he didnt pay off the right official
plus for for about 3500$ you can get a pied with a guarantee and have a healthy animal for the get go.

EDIT by JLC -- No sales pitches in the regular forums (Or 3rd party sales, for that matter). Take it to PMs.
I have had many ads and with that comes MANY scam replys. Any one from Africa is a scam, anyone who wants to pay you more for your item is a scam, anyone who doesn't ask or give or give relevant info is a scam. I get hundreds of them everyday, once you've seen a few they standout like a soar thumb. Also you can't buy a snake from someone out of the country unless you are an importer with the correct liscenses. Can you see scam coming. Snakes guys in Africa know this and if you don't scammers know they have a sucker in the making.
