Actually, I've talked to people that've done face to face business with the guy and apparently he's in his mid to late 20's.

My 5y/o is a better businesswoman. She sells the girl scout cookies and delivers!

This guy is a joke.

Sorry my joke was in bad taste. I really hope this gets resolved for you. I would definitely post on the BOI that his mom called you. Even if this gets resolved, I'm pretty sure nobody wants to do business with someone that has their mommy call to defend them after they're clearly in the wrong.

No worries, man. If I saw that someone's mom started talking for them (She sent me an email, BTW. No call.) then I would assume they were a kid too. For a grown man, though... Of course, from the research I've done it's not really surprising. I was trying to verify the address he gave me and came across a court filing where his mom got custody of his kid.

Well, we've got another development. Just got a call from him. He claimed that he lost his phone for a week and doesn't have internet access other than his phone, but he's going to print the shipping label through SYR in the next couple of minutes and send me the tracking. On top of that he said that he'll be shipping me a clutchmate of the original Fire het Albino, another female Fire het Albino, plus a bunch of extra goodies. I'm really in an "I'll believe it when I see it" place, but if he does follow up then it'll go a long way to making up for the past week of uncertainty.

Good to hear that he is at least communicating with you.

And I agree with the "I'll believe it when I see it mentality".

Good luck

Two things about this make me cringe

1) If he only has internet access on his phone then how is he going to print a FedEx label? Or can phones print these days??

2) I am not sure FedEx does Friday overnight with guaranteed delivery on Saturday and I know that no self-respecting herp shipper would ship on a Friday

1) He's at his mom's house.

2) It's not going out until Monday.

I have gotten a tracking number now, though. Things are looking up.

Oh, and phones can print. I've got a cheapo HP deskjet that has software that actually lets me print to it from pretty much anywhere on my phone. It's awesome.

Glad to hear that things are improving. Things happen to the best of us, but all's well that ends well. Keep us updated on what you end up getting.
