Think I'm in the process of getting ripped off...

It is pretty amazing that you got anything at all, but what you did receive is just ridiculous..

I hope your thread on fauna will discourage anyone else from ever doing business with this guy.

Did you get that unboxing video up? Were they at least packaged decently? Aside from the dead heat pack...

If the heat pack was ever good it was improperly placed, on the bottom of the box. Other than that the packaging was OK, but not that great. Box was way too big, not enough packing material, etc...

Vid is uploading to YT. ETA about 9 minutes.

:/ well. This guy has zero redeeming qualities. Does he really expect anyone to continue doing business with him?? He must be crazy.

I guess from now on you will be super cautious of who you buy from Lesson learned!

I suppose it could have been much worse.. but ugh. I'm really sorry you had to go through all this. What a pain in the butt!!!

That pic is supposed to be a fire het albino? I'm not seeing fire, and based on the craptastic response from the guy who gave her to you, I wouldn't waste my time trying to prove her out for albino either.

Oh, I'm not. I've already got a full Albino and Dinker het Albino female in my collection, anyways. Don't need a dubious het Albino too. LoL.

That snake looks to be in bad shape. Good luck and sorry this happened, but thanks for sharing because that's quite local to me.

Been reading your thread. Really bad deal all the way around. I was quite surprised to see that he shipped anything back your way. Unfortunately, this one can be chalked up as a lesson learned. At the very least, you got back two of your original BPs and this other normal (I'd pop it to be sure it is female). You can also take with you that you've done the community as a whole a favor and made them aware of this character. Let's hope this closes the doors on this fledgling business venture of his.

I tend to agree. It was a pricey lesson, but not nearly as bad as it could have been. I will be making it my personal mission to see that he doesn't have the opportunity to screw anyone over again.

I will pop the Normal eventually, but for now I'm trying to let her settle in a bit. As I said to a friend of mine, "How would you feel if you were starved, then shoved in a box, arrived thirsty, then had some guy grab your privates and squeeze them?"... lol.

Anytime you buy/sell/trade with someone you don't know personally or is not a legit business it is a risk. I think most of us fall into the category of "been screwed" or "been lucky" when it comes down to it. Hope this is the first and last time for you.

Oh, and I totally agree with letting that "female" settle in before popping

After semi-following this thread. The packaging alone would put him on my "Don't Buy" list, and then add the fact that he screwed you over..... I hope you are able to get the $100 he promised you, somehow.
