    it was just a stupid ad.
    are ya mad that i sold the female pastel to someone else!

    sorry about your luck


    (This was discussed in another thread, and I felt then and still do that rewording the ad to violate the TOS is a way for BYBs to sell animals without going to the trouble of maintaining a website. It's more common with mill dogs, which I think is what CL had in mind, but his ploy is still a direct violation of the CL TOS. I frequently flag down obvious puppymill and BYB ads, but have so far abstained from flagging reptile ones as I think they are a much smaller industry and not as exploited as dogs are. The nature of the difficulty of reproducing many snakes necessitates a more thorough knowledge and better attention to their care than that which many mill and BYB dogs get.

    *shrug* I'm not an enforcer, that's just my viewpoint.)

    I am mildly annoyed at your unprofessionalism in handling the potential sale, but that's what I get for looking at somebody selling on CL. :-) Next time I'll look elsewhere, no harm done and I've learned a bit more.

    A long time ago, the band Tool was going on tour, and everything sold out in a matter of minutes. eBay didn't allow people to scalp tickets, so everybody sold stuff like socks with free Tool tickets.

    It's been deleted by now. Man, I never get to have any fun. I always miss those links people post. I'll go surf on Craig's list myself then.

    Two weeks ago, I found a flagrant reselling of Craig's list adopted animals on Craig's list - posted before the first ad was even gone! It was a RTB. He more than doubled the adoption fee. I busted him.
