    This should be a HUGE red flag to anyone who doesn't blindly trust everyone.

    Who's the breeder? If he's so great, sing his praises.
    It's not a problem for anyone, yet. Why bring up names? Would you recommend anyone who ever experiences a delay in shipping to come here and blast the seller? Get a grip man...

    Why does how I, just me, do business bother you so badly? Do you what you feel is right and allow me to do the same. If it's a pissing contest you want, you'll have to look elsewhere.

    I can understand not giving a name..yet. But definitely let it be known if he screws you.

    However, I still would be extremely suspicious. He only gave the heat reason for one day. If it was heat, then why didn't he just say so the first time and each time after?

    So your sister goes into labor. Uh... why should that stop you from stopping by FedEx? Are you an MD? Most people don't go to the hospital with their sister during labor.

    FedEx closed? Not feeling it. There really isn't any excuse of the three he gave for a two week shipment delay. FedEx also does pickups at home for the worst case scenario--climate permitting that is.

    All I'm saying is keep your eyes peeled. I know that if this was me, I'd be extremely sensitive to any further delays. I'd rather buy from someone who can do business without multiple complications, and be thinking seriously about a refund.

    This has nothing to do with you. Why are you so insistent the OP bring up the name of the seller if the seller hasn't even done anything wrong, YET?

    You are, again, 100% wrong. She asked for advice. I have given mine. It is not the same as yours. This seems to only be a problem with YOU.

    What's the guys name?

    Is this even for real?

    The excuses are poor, unacceptable to some. I've seen this exact scenario, even down to the trip to the hospital for a family member, played out many many times to the detriment of the buyer. Apparently you have not. Or you don't care. Or, you just don't get it.

    I mean, I can see the other side too where it would be helpful to know the person's name--especially if the person is new to the hobby-- to help them with advice. The excuses are kind of bad--not even legit sounding. Next thing you know, the seller's dog will have ate the homework... er I mean snakes

    Going to jump in here really quick....

    I'm going to agree with not releasing the name of the seller until we have further information. Why? Because people here already have a negative vibe about this seller. Even if he turns out to be legitimate, everyone who cares for the name is going to remember 'That one time...' where he was delayed in shipping for whatever reason. What's the point of bringing up the name if the information is currently at a stand-still? It doesn't benefit the OP with their snakes. It doesn't benefit the seller, especially if someone here takes it upon themselves to contact them about this situation.

    If the OP feels the need, I'm sure they will post feedback on the BOI. In the meantime, I don't see how releasing the name will benefit anyone in this immediate situation. If you are wanting the name for your own personal information, then I'd say PM the OP and get the information for yourself. But don't drag it out into the open when people are so ready to light torches. Let it play itself out. We'll know soon enough, one way or another

    "What's the sellers name?" is not advise. Am I at least just 99% wrong now?

    You guys do realize that things happen right I know me personally have had weeks where one thing after the other happened like last month I was going to buy a few snakes but then my jeep got caught in a flood I got a 500$ light bill my building I bought for my snakes got delayed because of the floods and my wife moved out and this was just in a week now how believable does that Sound? I know it sounds ridiculous and it happened to me! So what I'm saying is just because it sounds like a bunch of bs doesn't mean its not true people have bad weeks day months ect... it happens to us all so lay off a little bit I don't understand why u guys wanna put the man on blast just because of three delays he has contacted him each and every time so its obvious hes not avoiding him.
