    Re: Probably nothing I can do

    I would rather have the snake back than the $60 and I have a feeling she will either pay me the $60 (which I won't refuse but still would rather pay her for the snake back) or stop talking to me and I won't be able to find her again.

    *sigh* I have definitely learned my lesson and will never do anything like this again.

    Good luck, it hurts when people are so untrustworthy and you can't turn your back for a second.

    Re: Probably nothing I can do

    I know. We re-homed our sugar gliders to her over a year ago. Then I sold her my pastel female. After we sold her Jora, we later found out through a friend that the sugar gliders had died in her care, so yes, I am very worried about the care she is giving the python. I am only just now getting back in touch with her after almost a year. She has moved since the last time I've been to her house so I have no idea where to find her if she decides to stop talking to me.

    Re: Probably nothing I can do

    Got another email from her. She says

    i'm not willing to give her up i will pay you the last 20 dollar payment but i can't part with her i'm attached my normal ball died shortly after my mom passed away so i drew closer to her i can't give her up.

    I told her she owes me $60 not $20. And to know her other ball python died...ugh! Now I really REALLY want to get Jora back. Who knows what kind of condition she's in or how her other ball python died (it was only a few years old)

    Re: Probably nothing I can do

    Dang I'm so sorry about this, I know how it feels. A while back I did give up my Dumeril's boa and she was such a sweet girl. I kinda regret it now because she was so beautiful and a great example of a Dumeril's boa. And that the fact she was a very calm girl when she was being handled. So sorry about the Pastel, I feel your pain!

    Re: Probably nothing I can do

    Just playing the Devil's adocate here. Why would you sell her the snake if you were leary about how she would care for it and sugar gliders under her care died?

    Sorry to be blunt, but it kind of looks like you set yourself up to be taken advantage of on this one -- sounds like it's time to play hard ball on this one instead of trying to work with her....

    You sound like a really thoughtful and caring person -- just the kind of person a dishonest person would like to take advantage of...

    Good luck!
