If the snake had stopped feeding on its own that would be a completely different matter that would have been fine. However I do not feel like this is something the snake did on her own, which is why I feel ripped off.
You said she weighed 700g's and she had lost 100g's, which means an 800g snake. Depending if you are going by the 1500g rule, that is barely half of a breeders weight.

Yes, buying a snake to breed, assuming it is going to be breeding weight in 3 months, is "counting your chickens before they hatch."
