Re: Probably nothing I can do
Maybe if you try talking to her about getting the snake back and refunding her money would be best. Tell her you really miss the snake and you have some exciting breeding plans for her in the future. It wouldn't hurt to talk to her about it, but if she disagrees you might not want to go any further to anger her about the situation.

Re: Probably nothing I can do
You can ask anyone I have given or taken payments from the animals stay in my care and keep getting fed like normal until payment is done friends or not its good practice.

Exactly my thought on this as well. No matter what the sale involves, keep the product in your own hands until the sale is final. People mysteriously seem to have a lot easier time coming up with money for something they don't have in their hands yet.

I couldn't agree more.

Well I know that now. I just wish there was some way to get her back.

Re: Probably nothing I can do
I'm sure this won't be a popular statement, however, it sounds to me like this has little to do with anything other than seller's remorse. The $60 seems to me to be just your excuse to try to take it back. You sold this person the snake because it was too agressive for your taste...let's not forget that it was your doing here and that imo, your reason for selling her the snake was a bit selfish. Now for whatever reason, you woke up and figured, I want a pastel so now you want her to give you back the snake she fell in love with to fill a craving you have? Sounds a bit selfish again.

Re: Probably nothing I can do
I did sell the snake because at the time I didn't need a pastel female. She was a tad aggressive but nothing I couldn't work with. Yes, I do regret selling her the snake but that is mostly due to the fact my husband and I were attached to her. This girl has not paid me the last payment on her and now I have learned her other ball python has died. I am worried about the condition she is being kept in. Yes I will admit. This is partly sellers remorse. I should not have sold her this snake. But when you take into account that we have now found out that not only did the sugar gliders we adopted out to her die (we found this out AFTER we sold her the snake) but now her other ball python died in her care, you can't exactly blame me for trying to buy back the snake. Once I found out the sugar gliders had died, I have been trying to contact her ever since. I only just now got a hold of her. I know I won't get the pastel back.
Now, this will end up one of two ways. A: She pays me back the $60 and that is that. B: She disappears and I don't get anything back.
I posted this as a warning to others who might do what I did. Trust a friend with money.
