I left her basically alone from handling until she acclimated a few days.

My thoughts are that with all your experience you thought she looked good enough after examining her to leave her alone for a few days, so it would not seem there was anything in particular to cue the seller, if indeed she was ill when she left. We can't presume that, since she was OK when you left her alone.
