I've Been SCAMMED!!!!!!!!!!!!

[J-Ride]

Hello all... I've been a long time reader/lurker on these forums, and have apprciated all the info. I wanted to let you all know that RAY TORRES of www.raysreptlia.com has scammed me for $175. I picked out 2 specific snakes from the pictures on his website (to use as future breeders). The snakes were #606 and #611 (funny they are still "available" on his site). Ray shipped me 2 completely differnt snakes (much lower quality). When I received the snakes I notified Ray immeadiately... his response? Well, it's this:


those snakes are fine feeding well and healthy .they are guaranteed females why not just keep them

PLEASE BE CAREFUL... Ray Torres of www.raysreptilia.com = SCAM!!!!!!!!

You forgot to read the small print. It appears Ray did represent himself properly, I pulled this directly from his page when I viewed a snake. I would not claim that you were "scammed", how ever in the future I would request photos of the snakes before they were shipped so that I could approve of them first.

This is the exact font size and color that the disclaimer looks like on his website. I clicked on the pic of the snakes you mentioned above.

To make your purchase just click on the add to cart link above ...

Pic is for illustration purposes only..

you know i saw that too, but that is only stated about the pic that is on the page where you go to pay. the pic of the bp on that page is the same pic no matter which bp you selected to buy.

Weird.. it's not always the same on the 'buy' page. Click on a few, and you'll see it changes, but it doesn't always match the snake you clicked on.

ah, you are right. evidentally i just happened to click on a few where it was the same. however, this is stated on one of the buy pages as well:

"To purchase your baby ball python for 70 dollars shipped click on the add to cart link below.The picture on this page is for illustration purposes only.The snake you are purchasing is the snake on the previous page."

that clearly states that the snake you are purchasing IS indeed the one that was in the original photo.

wont even let me open the page wonder if he killed it after a odd amount of hits he doesnt normaly see.

His stated reply doesn't impress me. I know if I made a mistake and gave someone the wrong snakes I'd be very apologetic, but this guy doesn't seem fazed at all.

[Shelby]

no Python-77.. one of the above links posted by J-ride doesn't work. Try the other one.

[mlededee]

no, that reply is inexcusable at best. like why would you care what snakes you actually got as long as they are females? um, well, if you pick out specific snakes from photographs than you expect to get those snakes. especially if you chose them for specific qualities like pattern, blushing, etc.

i too would think that with different pics and numbers under each on his available page that would be the pic of the snake to match that number. if i ordered certain #'s, i'd expect them to match the pic!!!
