To make a comments on the "pressure to buy right now" comment being a red flag, im going to have to disagree to a point.

I dont waste time on sellers who do not respond in a timely manner. If i want to buy something, i want to be able to send the money as soon as possible, or get a deal going within a weeks time, usually. Im patient, but i wont wait on you forever and a day to send me even a message.

Ive had several instances where i would try to get in contact with a person to buy an animal, wait a day or two, and no response, so i move on to the next person in line. Dont like it, too bad. When im looking to spend money, i want a response in a timely fashion. do i mean mere hours after i sent my message? no, thats just rude, but within 48 hours? Yes sir, i certainly do.

Now, i dont mean to say i support pressure on getting a yes out of someone selling, that something will even produce the first time its bred, let alone a morph. As its true, its still a game of chance with hets. And that kind of tactic is wrong.
