I'm not mentioning the sellers name yet because he hasn't had a chance to get back to me, but I need to let off a little steam. I bought a 950g female bumblebee ball python on Monday. The guy didn't have anything (good or bad) on the BOI, so I took a chance. I sent payment and he said he could ship her the next day. Yesterday afternoon he messaged me saying he was about to send her out and even sent me pictures of the package. He did mention that she had pooped and shed and now weighed 800g (...). I wasn't thrilled, but it also wasn't a deal breaker to me. Then I noticed on the picture of the shipping label that she was coming standard overnight. I messaged back thinking it was a mistake, but he assured me that he always shipped standard and she would be fine (......). I put my foot down saying she had to come priority or not at all. Im in rural Florida, so its 90+ outside and standard usually doesnt get here until 6-8pm. He did finally switch her over to priority and she just got here a few minutes ago.
I will say she was packed pretty well. The box was a bit small but everything else looked great. I took her out, looked her over, double checked gender....CRAP!
THAT is not a girl. So now Im contacting him again. No response so far, but its just been a few minutes and its 6:15am his time. Ugh! Ive had very good luck lately with buying balls so I guess there had to be a hiccup at some point.
