Is this Normal from a known breeder?

[BCBallPythons]

Well the OP didn't give all the information to begin with. That's shady. Garrick hasn't said/done anything shady. We saw an e-mail he sent to someone else, and he even came here and explained his side. He doesn't really need to do anything else unless the OP claims that he's lying. The OP hasn't returned so it seems Garrick has the last word. The ball is on the OP's court, but I don't think any should hold their breath .

Yea ur right. And since all this new stuff has appeared i agree the fact the OP had vanished probably points to more holes in his story.

I too dont think Garrick has to provide anything else to us. This is a completely private manner between these 2 and it sounds like its been resloved somewhat so who really cares..? My point was this is a BOI type of thread, and we all know that words dont hold up too well sometimes in this business, unfortunatly. But yes i suppose Garrick did get the last word. If theres no argument then thats it!

My stuff has been dealt with. I talked to Garrick Last night.

[PitOnTheProwl]

Almost 30 mins of my life that I will never get back reading these 19 pages so now I feel I am entitled to post my two cents.

If you are going to come on a PUBLIC forum as the OP did and not release all of the information needed then expect to get flamed.

For those of you saying this should have never been posted or should be between the buyer and seller........................... You are probably the same type that will be really pissed when you get screwed and someone posts that "oh yeah so and so screwed me too". hen you will be mad that you were not informed about so and so, right?

Our hobby of CHOICE relies almost 100% on a small word that doesn't seem to mean much to anyone anymore known as TRUST. I always want to know of anyone who is not trustworthy here. Call me over careful but its better to be safe than taken for a ride

I'd just like pop in to agree that I too call dibs on hugging Doolittle. That is all.

So, did you violate the TOS by insisting he ship against his advice?

Honesty is the path to respect.

Fedex and UPS do NOT guarantee live arrival. Period. He is supposed to get his shipping refunded if he paid for an early delivery and they didn't make it IF the guarantee early delivery to the receivers location. In many places they do not guarantee early delivery. Paying for insurance to ship a live animal any way other than Delta Dash, or some other airline equivalent is a waste of money.

Actually, fed ex will refund the shipping ONLY if the delay was because of mechanical failure, such as a problem with a plane. They do not refund shipping if the package arrives late because of the weather.

Derrick I have some bad news. It looks like there are severe storms and tornadoes coming to the Southeastern part of the country including Memphis, TN, where Fed Ex's sorting facility is. They will most-likely experience delays with shipping, and delays at this time of year can be deadly for the animals if the heat packs wear out. I think it would be best if I held off on shipping until next week. I'm sorry for the wait, but I want the shipment to arrive on time, safe, and sound. It looks like it will be ok to ship on Monday for arrival on Tuesday morning. Let me know if you can receive on Tuesday.
Thanks,

It wouldn't ship out of WI until late tonight and it would arrive in Memphis TN in the early morning, right when this weather system will be there. It may make it to Memphis, but I don't think it would leave on time to get to you tomorrow. I don't want to take a chance with a shipment this valuable. I'd rather wait a few days and get them there safe rather than take a chance.

Thanks,

It may be, but I don't think it is worth taking a risk. I'll ship if you want me to, but it is against my better judgement and I won't guarantee live delivery. I've shipped thousands of packages and I know a dangerous situation when I see one. I really don't advise it.

Thanks,

Let the mystic warm up for 3-4 hours before disposing of him. I've received snakes that were lifeless and they came around after about 2-3 hours. Normally, fed ex would have had the box there by 10:30AM. I figured there was going to be a delay of some type with the weather they had.

Nothing...es gotten nice and warm but hes gone



There were a couple of emails before I shipped and when he emailed me to let me know the mystic died, but I can't find them. I get 50-75 emails a day so some get lost in the shuffle. I asked again if he wanted me to ship and he said yes. I hope this satisfies everyone.

[DooLittle]

Well then, I guess this is all settled.

Thank you Garrick.

Rob, I hope it was Rob, I'm terrible with names, I hope you understand why I couldn't take your word for what Garrick would do.

derrick, if you screw something up in the future and want help fixing it, give ALL the information in the beginning. I really don't like looking like a dumbass because I believed some guy, and I DID ask you about shipping, who's lying to me.
