    I honestly don't see why anyone is surprised in this situation. Did you really think that this was going to go through? I can understand trying to get your money back but saying that they're terrible and everything? Come on, you tried to buy a $250 tank for $25 knowing that it was marked wrong. Who's the terrible here? Not trying to offend anyone, just trying to state my opinion and get my point across.

    large exo-terra $25??!!

    I would say the company that takes someone's money, says they didn't and then won't give it back.

    Would it be ok if I placed an ad here, took payment, told the person I made a mistake and that I didn't charge them, hold on to their money and not give it back?
    What if I put a disclaimer in the ad saying I'm not responsible for any mistakes in the ad? Why is no one responsible for their actions as long as they put up a disclaimer?

    I thought it was too good to be true. I tried to take advantage on a good deal.
    There were 3 different spots on their site claiming this deal was real. People said they called and informed them and they didn't fix it. A company that big should be able to change a price within mins.
    The laws here state that when something is priced lower than actual price, you get it for the posted price.

    Why should online stores be any different?

    I tried for a deal to good to be true, shame on me.

    They took my money and lied about it. That's fine, just put up a disclaimer saying its ok to do so.

    large exo-terra $25??!!

    I'm not complaining about it, I knew it most likely wasn't going to go through. I'm just wondering why I got an in-process email from them since the order was cancelled.

    When you work hard every day for your money without being able to ask parents for money you may understand a little better... 3skulls hit the nail on the head tho. Bottom line don't take my money without ever intendeding to send me the product dont be surprised when people get upset over it. I know ive had to call them 4 times and ask why they say i already got the money when I haven't.

    I understand that they won't give the money back, but you have to think about how many people they have to refund and through how many different ways, (ie. Paypal, Visa, Mastercard, etc.) No, not shame on you because you're a nice person, and everyone here knows that, but think about it, did you really and totally honestly think that it was going to work?

    I don't need for you to tell me about asking my parents for money. I paid for my snakes, their food, their enclosure, etc. I have also paid for every piercing in my body other than one that was a "birthday gift." Try again.

    Cool you paid for what you want. Kids shouldnt be just handed thing either. You have zero bills dont act like you have some understanding of adulthood. And if you would like to keep being disrespectful we will take this to PMs.

    I wasn't aware that letting you know that I pay for the things I want would be me trying to grasp an understanding on adulthood, that's not what I'm saying. YOU, told me that I should get to understand what it's like to earn money and then this happen without parents just handing it over. I'm not being disrespectful, I was merrily giving you an answer. I won't take this to PMs, I'll be the bigger person here and drop it. Thanks.

    Im aware of what I told you and I stand buy it, when bills are a huge part of your life at times people take money more serious than needed. It is a part of life you will learn once you get out on your own and have to pay for everything. Now im going to ignore the shot at the end as a child needing to get in the last word. Done with this now anymore from you adressed to me ill respond by pm, this thread is filled with enough negative.

    Seriously, Nick? You started it with him.

    Therunaway is 100% correct IMO. Everyone knew it was a mistake and still tried to grab onto these cages. Do you know how many people tried ordering? A LOT. I don't think that everyone will be getting their refund in a day.
