I know the feeling. I would suggest saving up and buying a higher quality animal from a reputable breeder. I got a male pastel from Justin Kobylka for $75 with most of the big breeders websites of they don't have something you like posted just shoot them an email. Chances are they have what you are looking for.
This is the male pastel I got from Justin:
When I got this male and my female pastel from Justin I didn't have to worry about how they were being shipped or what condition they were in. Peace of mind is priceless, and while you can never be 100% guaranteed that any animal that you buy online will be in good health and exactly what you paid for, but with reputable breeders you get as close as you ever will.
