their is an obligation on the part of the seller to at least, keep the lines of communications open. You sent a total stranger $ 450.00 in advance, and you made it your business to meet your end of the deal.

This business about the seller not being able to contact you, is an old story, and a very convenient excuse for : if for nothing else , having poor business ethics, even if you do get your pythons.

People should be made aware of these faults when monies are sent in good faith to strangers. It would be one thing if both parties knew each other and had previous dealings with each other. But here their is an implied trust based on an ad, where money was sent in advance, and now the buyer is at the mercy of the seller.

Its the same thing with credit. Not paying is a problem, being late in paying is a bigger problem. Thats what you have here. I am sure and hope you receive the snakes, but this persons business approach should be brought to everyones attention so that potential buyers will know what to expect from people like thins who may be to busy to even acknowledge an email .........once they have your money.
