Neal, No offense but how else do I say this - you are a liar. You never called me and you never informed me of a snake with a respiratory infection or else I would of told you to ship it back that same day for a full refund. I said you were knocking on a dead end? Are you nuts? Are you sure you got the right vendor here as I never spoke to anyone about an animal that was received in anything but great shape - NEVER. Do you have someone creditable to back up your accusations? Why would I send you a sick snake and tell you dead end when you can simply go to my advertisers account and have a strike against me? Who do you think is going to believe you? I would of loved to help out any sick animal so what is your point here with all these lies?
