    Wow... SMH

    How much are they asking for the 40 breeder??

    i assumed the snake was using one of those cages hence wanting to sell it all

    maybe she should have asked her kid if she could sell the snake.... PRIOR TO POSTING IT IN A FOR SALE SECTION...

    My neck hurts from all the heaf shaking and it’s not even my deal...!!

    Sorry man that blows.

    Yup, she sucks. I'm still hoping to get the rack cause it's a great deal, but this lady sucks. I wish she was a guy so I could smack him around a bit.

    Cut and run!!!


    Not worth it at this point.

    Get yourself a special boa. One that you researched and can't wait to have. I don't know if this seller is worth dealing with any longer.

    The caging is a good deal, but you still don't know the condition the cages are actually in.

    They have terrible pictures of both the snake and the caging.

    At this point, the "good deal" is turning into more of a chore.

    My hunch (when people are this flaky to deal with) is that once you see the cages in person, you'll find they're in crappy shape anyway. RUN!

    Reminds of when I decided to move out of state, & searched online for houses to look at in my choice of area, ahead of my actual visit to the area:
    Some of the ones I liked the most online were complete no-go's in person. Photos can be SO deceiving, as is what all they leave out. Run away
    and don't look back...

    Sorry for your frustration Craig. I understand where you are coming from. I buy a lot of stuff of of eBay for a another hobby of mine. I run into stuff like this all of the time. Sometimes they work out out, other times they don’t. Just go with gut and don’t second guess yourself.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

    Yeah, squashed the deal... it's too bad, that deal was solid assuming condition was as good as I was told. I was looking forward to my first boa too...

    Temptations are everywhere...take your time. The people that are a big pain to deal with are often hiding things anyway. Not worth it.
